ASTM A240 SS304 /304L Stainless Steel Plate / Sheet / Coil
Description
Stainless Steel 304 Sheet is made up of an austenitic stainless steel that has 18% chromium and 8% nickel in the composition. This is the most used grade of all stainless steels in the world. The sheets are strong, mild corrosion resistant and have applications in a variety of industries. The Stainless Steel 304 Sheet also has manganese, carbon, silicon, sulfur, nitrogen and phosphorus in the composition. The material is strong and has 205MPa minimum yield strength and 515MPa minimum tensile strength in general.
As a widely used steel, it has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties; it has good hot workability such as stamping and bending without heat treatment. Hardening phenomenon (use temperature -196℃~800℃). It is resistant to corrosion in the atmosphere.
