What is stainless steel 304?

It is the standard “18/8” stainless steel. It is an alloy with a high chromium content, and less carbon content. Higher chromium ensure anti corrosion property, and low carbon content prevents chromium carbide precipitation due to welding. This grade of steel has a large range of properties, suitable for many industries. In fact, it is the most versatile and widely used grade of stainless steel. It has excellent forming and welding properties. It is also one of the most ductile alloys, which allows it to be drawn with ease.Grade 304L, the low carbon variant, is extensively used to produce heavy gauge components. Grade 304H, the variant with higher carbon content is used at elevated temperatures. Theses grades have excellent toughness. Some properties are listed below.

304L 485 170 40 92 201
304H 515 205 40 92 201
304H also has a requirement for a grain size of ASTM No 7 or coarser.

Apart from these, the alloy exhibits excellent thermal resistance. Grade 304L has remarkable resistance towards carbide precipitation, and thus can be heated at a temperature range of about 870-925 degree Celsius. 304H can also be heated in the temperature range of about 500-800 degree Celsius.

These grades can also be welded very easily, either with or without filler metals. Grade 304L doesn’t even require post weld annealing to increase corrosion resistance. They cannot be hardened by heat treatment. And further, they show excellent corrosion resistance properties because of the presence of chromium.

Because of the excellent combination of the above mentioned properties, the alloy finds application in numerous industries. It is used in food processing equipment because of high corrosion resistance and surface finish that allows easy cleaning. For the same set of reasons, it finds application in kitchen appliances. It also forms a major component of architectural paneling and railings. It is also used in heat exchangers on account of good thermal resistance. Chemical containers used in transportation also use stainless steel 304. It also finds usage in springs and welded screens for mining, quarrying and water filtration.

This alloy is one of the most valuable alloys in the industrial sector.

Why pick Kinnari Steel Corporation as your supplier?

Because consumers are likely to face problems like non availability of material and lack of good packaging. We keep our consumers from facing these problems through our policy of maintaining a constant stock. This implies that as soon as the material is dispatched to be transported to the customer, the other set is ready to replenish the stock. Also, our packaging ensures that the material reaches the customer’s doorstep in the same form as it was in while being dispatched. The customers also fall into the trap of middlemen and end up paying huge sums of money as commission. We ensure that none of these malpractices are carried out while trading with us. Also, when it comes to buying alloys, it is important that the ISO and ASTM standards are maintained. Many times, the products fail under pressure because of not being able to meet those standards. We ensure that the standards are maintained so as to achieve the correct level of hardness. We have been certified by ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004, OHSAS 18001:2007. Our mill test reports are in compliance with EN10204 NACE 3.1, NACE 3.2. They also go through an unbiased third party inspection, so as to be sure of the claims made by us. The customers are free to consult us regarding alternate sizes and grades. They can verify the history and application of the product by tracing the heat number that we specify on each product. The problem of lack of after sales services is also effectively tackled. We are available almost every time of the year to attend to your problems and fix them in the most effective manner. And however rare the cases may be, if required, we provide the customers with product replacement warranty. The past records suggest that we have had less than one percent rejection rate over the last decade. This itself is a proof of how we hold customer satisfaction as a primary responsibility.
