What is 304 stainless steel sheet?

1. Stainless steel 304 plate is generally considered to be the most common authenticate stainless steel plate. It contains a high nickel content, typically between 8 and 10.5 percent by weight, and a large amount of chromium, about 18 to 20 percent by weight. Other major alloying elements include manganese, silicon and carbon. The rest of the chemical composition is mainly iron. SS 304 sheet has excellent toughness, even at low temperatures, which are defined as extremely low temperatures.

2. 304 stainless steel sheet is one of the most widely used stainless steel varieties. 300 series stainless steel austerity. It contains a minimum of 18% chromium and 8% nickel, and a maximum of 0.08% carbon. It is defined as chrome-nickel authenticate alloy.

3. 304 stainless steel sheet has excellent low temperature performance and responds well to cold work hardening. Grade 304 has excellent welding properties and usually does not require post-weld annealing to restore properties. 304 stainless steel is a good candidate for certain processing techniques. Good corrosion resistance.

4. The high content of chromium and nickel gives 304 stainless steel plates excellent corrosion resistance. SS 304 sheet has good oxidation resistance at 870 ° C intermittent use and 925 ° C continuous use.

5. For applications where excellent form ability is required, the high molybdenum content of SS class 316 sheet can adversely affect form ability, so SS 304 sheet can be used. SS 304 sheets should be used if cost is an issue for applications where class SS 304 sheets are generally more affordable than class 316 sheets.

What are the characteristics of 304 stainless steel sheet?
