Features: Due to the addition of Mo, its corrosion resistance, atmospheric corrosion resistance and high temperature strength are particularly good, and can be used under harsh conditions; excellent work hardening (non-magnetic); excellent high temperature strength; non-magnetic in solid solution state; cold The appearance of rolled products has good gloss and is beautiful; compared with 304 stainless steel, the price is higher. • The corrosion resistance and high temperature strength of 316 stainless steel are greatly improved due to the addition of Mo element. The high temperature resistance can reach 1200-1300 degrees, and it can be used under harsh conditions. Uses: Equipment used in sea water, chemical, dye, paper, oxalic acid, fertilizer and other production equipment; photography, food industry, facilities in coastal areas, ropes, CD rods, bolts, nuts. • 410 Features: As a representative steel of martensitic steel, although it has high strength, it is not suitable for use in harsh corrosive environments; it has good machinability and is hardened by heat treatment (magnetic). Uses: knife blades, mechanical parts, petroleum refining devices, bolts, nuts, pump rods, class 1 tableware (knives and forks).

Classification of watch strap connection buckle
In addition to paying attention to the material and color matching of the player's strap, the choice of the buckle may be a detail that many people ignore;
In fact, each buckle has its own advantages and disadvantages. Relatively speaking, the use experience will be more important. Is it convenient to use? Will it affect me at ordinary times, or is it suitable for matching my strap and watch? It's not very good-looking, but it's a point that makes people think.
So what are the noteworthy points in the selection of Watch Strap Connector MIM Parts? What types of buckles are there?
Watch buckles are generally divided into folding buckles, butterfly buckles, pin buckles, safety buckles, belt snaps, concealed buckles and hook buckles. Here we only talk about several Watch Strap Connector MIM Parts that are more frequently used on the market.

• Butterfly buckle
Butterfly buckles are generally used for steel belts, and belts are also used in a small amount; the shape gives people a more fashionable and high-end feeling; because the material problem may be a little harder, it is not as comfortable as a pin buckle, especially suitable for watches for business people.
In terms of specifications, it depends on the length of the strap to see if it is suitable for installing a butterfly buckle;
According to the standard, there are two types: the opening of the watch case is 20mm, and the tail of the leather strap is generally 18mm; the opening of the watch case is 18mm, and the tail of the leather strap is 16mm.
The length of the standard leather strap is 7 cm at the short end and 11 cm at the long end. The extended leather strap is 9.5 cm at the short end and 11.5 cm at the long end.
The standard belt is the most suitable for installing the butterfly buckle. If your watch is extended, it may be a little out of center after being converted into a butterfly buckle, which will affect the appearance.

• Buckle
One of the most common clasps on the market, easy to operate, comfortable and convenient to wear, the length of the strap can be adjusted at will according to the thickness of the arm, it can be said to be very easy to use;
But also because of the characteristics of the connection position, the strap is very damaged. After a long time of use, the leather at the connection will be damaged. For this reason, pin buckles are often used on low-end watch straps.

• Folding clasp
Folding buckles are mainly divided into two-fold and three-fold types. Compared with the traditional pinhole strap, the most obvious advantage is that the pinhole is only used as a part of the fixed strap, and the strap is fixed by the pinhole;
The other end is a metal folding buckle. The action of taking off the watch every day is only the folding buckle working, and it will not hurt the strap and the surrounding holes at all.
Friends who love watch straps can choose this one.

• Folding safety buckle
It is often used on middle and low-end steel straps, and the usage rate is very high. It is very common in the market. It is easy to disassemble and assemble, and the shape is OK; Open, affect the experience of use.

It is very good to use the concealed buckle on the steel watch strap. It has a beautiful appearance and looks integrated with the watch strap. It is also loved by many people. Because the usage rate of belt snaps and hooks is not high, I won’t go into details here.
If you want to choose a concealed strap buckle that is more suitable for you, the editor here recommends butterfly buckles and pin buckles. If you like other types of buckles, you can also choose according to your preferences.
