Grade 201 J1/J2/J3/J4 Stainless Steel Coils/Strips

Stainless steel strips are the extension products of ultra-thin stainless steel plates, usually long and narrow stainless steel strips are manufactured to meet the demands of various industrial and mechanical areas.
Stainless steel strip is also called stainless steel strip coil. The maximum width of its size shall not exceed 1220mm, but the length of coil is not limited.
According to the processing method, the stainless steel strips can be divided into cold-rolled stainless steel strips and hot-rolled stainless steel strips.
Stainless steel strips have excellent strength, precision surface finish, and are widely used in many industries such as aerospace, petrochemicals, automobiles, textiles, electronics, home appliances, computers, and precision parts processing.

200 SERIES STAINLESS STEEL

200 Series stainless steels are not new – In fact they have been around for many years. To date they have traditionally not proved very popular outside the USA. However, since they have a much lower Nickel content than 300 Series Austentics, the very high Nickel price over recent years has led to significantly more interest. Equally, stainless steel producers have an ongoing programme of development designed to enhance existing grades and produce new grades. These new grades are sometimes developed for specific end uses and sometimes to improve upon an existing grade.
