SS 304/304L Plates Features

• » Dual Certification: Comprised of both 304 and 304L chemistry, providing the high mechanical strength of 304 with the extra-low carbon protection of 304L.
• » Intergranular Corrosion Resistance: The low carbon content prevents chromium carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring the heat-affected zone remains corrosion-resistant without post-weld annealing.
• » Excellent Formability: Can be easily brake-formed or deep-drawn into complex shapes, making it ideal for industrial sinks, hollowware, and architectural cladding.
• » High Oxidation Resistance: Maintains structural integrity and resists scaling in intermittent service up to 870°C and continuous service up to 925°C.
• » Hygienic & Non-Contaminating: The non-porous surface and ease of cleaning make it the global standard for food grade, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment.
• » Cryogenic Toughness: Maintains excellent mechanical properties and high impact resistance even at extremely low temperatures, suitable for liquid gas storage applications.
• » Aesthetic Versatility: Available in a wide spectrum of finishes, including 2B (smooth), No.4 (brushed), and No.8 (mirror), allowing for both functional and decorative use.
• » Non-Magnetic Properties: As an austenitic grade, it is essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition, which is vital for certain electronic and medical instrument housing.
