Stainless Steel Plate
Grades: Austenitic (304, 316L, 321), Ferritic (430, 409), Duplex (2205, 2507).
Chemical Composition Example (304): C ≤ 0.08%, Cr 18–20%, Ni 8–10.5%, Mn ≤ 2.0%, Si ≤ 1.0%.
Thickness Range: 0.3–100 mm; Width: 1000–2500 mm.
Mechanical Properties:
Tensile strength: 520–750 MPa
Yield strength: 205–450 MPa
Hardness: ≤ 200 HB (annealed)
Density: 7.93 g/cm³
Surface Finishes: 2B, BA, No.4 brushed, No.8 mirror, patterned, etched.
Corrosion Resistance: Salt spray resistance > 500 hours for 304; > 1000 hours for 316L in ASTM B117 test.
Applications & Advantages
Applications: Food processing equipment, chemical storage tanks, marine structures, architectural facades, surgical instruments.
Advantages:
Hygienic, non-porous surface
Long lifespan without need for protective coatings
Maintains strength and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 870°C (316L)
Recyclable without loss of quality
Example Case: 316L plates used in coastal building facades withstand chloride-induced corrosion for over 20 years without visible degradation.
Manufacturing Process & Standards
Process:
Melting in EAF → AOD refining → Continuous casting
Hot rolling → Annealing → Pickling
Cold rolling (if required) → Final annealing and pickling
Surface finishing (polishing, coating, or texturing)
Standards: ASTM A240, EN 10088-2, JIS G4304/G4305.
Testing: PMI (Positive Material Identification), intergranular corrosion test (ASTM A262), mechanical property verification.
Packaging: PVC film or paper interleaving between plates, strapped and palletized for shipping.
