304h Stainless Steel Sheet

304 304l and 304h stainless steel 304 304l and 304h stainless steel 304 304l and 304h stainless steels are highly useful in a variety of applications and are among the most versatile and widely used of all the stainless steel grades.

304h stainless steel sheet. 304 stainless steel sheet is the most popular and economical of the stainless steels. Stainless steel and special alloys. 304 stainless sheet may become slightly magnetic when worked and is not heat treatable. Dual certified 304 304h is used as a material of construction up to 1500 f.

Stainless steel sheet and plate 304 is the ideal choice due to its tensile strength high resistance to rust and high fabrication ability. It is the standard 18 8 stainless that is commonly found in pans and cooking tools. It has good resistance to corrosion it is malleable and ductile and has good weldability. What is it that makes these grades the best all around performance stainless steels.

All plates are dual certified to astm asme a sa 304 304h and we are the only stockist in the uk to keep this grade in plate form. Sheet plate stainless steel 304h uns. This is the 0 04 minimum carbon version of type 304 stainless. It has general corrosion resistance similar to the low carbon 304 304l.

T 304h is a modification with 04 10 carbon and no nitrogen content. Sheet plate stainless steel 304h request quotation. Cost effective and versatile material 304 sheet is suitable for most applications where durable support and corrosion resistance are required. Alloy 304 is a t 300 series stainless steel austenitic which has a minimum of 18 chromium and 8 nickel with a maximum of 0 08 carbon.

The key elements in 304 are chromium and nickel which give it excellent resistance to corrosion. The carbon content is controlled in the range of 0 04 0 10 for increased strength at temperatures above 800 f 427 c. Grade 304 is an austenitic steel with excellent welding and forming characteristics. The newest addition to our stainless steel range brown mcfarlane s 304h range of steel plates are a modification of the standard 304 stainless steel grades with a higher carbon content typically between 0 04 0 10.

The mechanical test requirements are the same as t 304 but the h type is not normally subject to intergranular corrosion testing. Alloy 304 304h uns s30400 s30409 is a modification of the most widely utilized 18 8 chromium nickel austenitic stainless steel. Slight scaling begins at about 1200 f.
