Is the stainless steel water cup with enough material and thick wall to be a good vacuum flask?

The editor sees that there are readers' messages after the introduction of the lightweight cup, saying that the lightweight cup is not good. It is better to use a water cup with a thick wall, which is strong and resistant to falling and has a longer holding time.First of all, thank you friends for reading the article of the editor. Secondly, as an old man in a senior water cup factory, the editor compares the lightweight cup with the water cup the reader said. The final result is up to everyone to judge. The water cup that the reader refers to becomes a "weight cup".


In the previous article, the editor introduced the production principle of the "lightweight cup" and the final use effect in more detail, so I won't repeat it here.The editor of "weight cup" has never talked about it, because in the countless orders of the editor for so many years, only one item is the customer's request to change the wall thickness of the stainless steel water cup to thicker material.The editor thinks that such water cups are rare in the market, so there is no detailed explanation for the "weight cup".


"Weight cup" is commonly known as a weighted water cup, and the wall thickness of the water cup is usually thicker than that of an ordinary water cup.For example, the thickness of the stainless steel vacuum flask is usually 0.4-0.6 mm, and the wall thickness of the "weight cup" is 0.6-1.2 mm. This is not very intuitive.If an ordinary 500ml stainless steel vacuum flask weighs about 240 grams, the weight of the "lightweight cup" is about 160-180 grams, and the weight of the "weight cup" is about 380-550 grams, so that everyone has An intuitive comparison.


The "weight cup" is mostly formed by drawing pipe welding process, and rarely by drawing process.Excessive production costs are one aspect, and the main reason is the difficulty of processing.The finished product capacity of the "weight cup" is generally between 500-750 ml, and there are a few "weight cups" with a capacity of 1000 ml.


In terms of material comparison, under the same material, the material cost of the "weight cup" is higher than that of the "lightweight cup", the impact resistance is higher than that of the "lightweight cup", and the weight of a single product is higher than that of the "lightweight cup".It is cumbersome to carry, and it is not easy to carry large capacity.


In contrast to heat preservation, because the "lightweight cup" adopts the thinning process, the thinner material reduces the heat conduction.Therefore, in the case of the same capacity, the "lightweight cup" is better than the "weight cup" compared to the thermal insulation.


Compared with the use environment, the "weight cup" is more suitable for outdoor use, especially outdoor off-road adventure.The only "weight cup" project that the editor ever came into contact with was a "weight cup" purchased by a foreign military brand.Because of its heavy weight, it is not as easy to carry as a "lightweight cup" for ordinary people.


If you are not a military fan or an avid outdoor cross-country enthusiast, I do not recommend using the "weight cup".When a bare water cup weighs more than 500 grams, and the weight of the water in the cup also exceeds 500 grams, it will become a burden whether it is carried or used.If you think that the material is thicker and stronger and more durable, the editor does not exclude you from choosing the "weight cup". I can only say that the two water cups have their own advantages and disadvantages. It cannot be said that a heavier cup is a good one.
