What are the Advantages of 304 Stainless Steel?

1. Concept of 304 stainless steel

304 is a versatile stainless steel, which is widely used in the production of equipment and machinery that require good comprehensive performance ( corrosion resistance and formability ). In order to maintain the inherent corrosion resistance of stainless steel, steel must contain more than 18 % chromium and more than 8 % nickel content.

2. Application of 304 stainless steel

It is a common material in stainless steel, with a density of 7.93g/cm3. It is also called 18 / 8 stainless steel in the industry. High temperature resistance of 800 degrees, with the characteristics of good processing performance and high toughness, it is widely used in industry, furniture decoration industry and food and medical industry. Other applications of 304 ss plate are increasingly seeking structural integrity or impermeability. For example, roofs and side walls of industrial buildings. In these applications, the owner's construction cost may be more important than aesthetics, and the surface is not very clean. In addition, colored stainless steel sheets are also provided for decoration and many other industries.

3. Advantages of 304 stainless steel

Environmental protection and sanitation: eliminate the problems of red water, blue-green water and hidden water, without peculiar smell and harmful substances, keep the water pure, lead-free and harmless to human health. ss 304 sheet price is very competitive, which is prefers by many manufactures.

Wear resistance: the surface of the ss 304 sheet is beautiful, clean and bright, long-lasting and durable, no scratch, never rust and never fracture.

Low temperature resistance: stainless steel water pipes and faucet angle valves in kitchen and bathroom will never break.

Excellent thermal expansion performance and thermal insulation performance: stainless steel pipe has slow thermal expansion and cold contraction, and good thermal insulation performance.

Authoritative certification: the precipitation of metal elements in stainless steel is lower than 5% of the standard value specified by WHO and European drinking water laws.
