Posted by Wangkiky Wangkiky over 6 months ago

1. The advantages are different: 304 stainless steel has good processability and high toughness. Bai 316 stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, atmospheric corrosion resistance and high temperature strength. 2. Different fields of application: 304 stainless steel is widely used in industry, home decoration industry and food and medical industry. 316 stainless steel is used in seawater for equipment, chemicals, dyes, papermaking, oxalic acid, fertilizer and other production equipment, photography, food industry, coastal facilities, ropes, CD rods, bolts, nuts.[url=http://www.asiametalsheets.com/steel-supply/873.html]1018 2mm Thickness Small Diameter Stainless Cold Drawn Steel Pipe[/url] 3. Different densities: The density of 304 stainless steel is 7.93 g / cm 3. The density of 316 stainless steel is 8.03 g / cm3. 304 stainless steel is widely used in curtain wall, side wall, roof and other building applications, but it is better to use 316 stainless steel in corrosive industrial or marine atmosphere.[url=http://www.asiametalsheets.com/sheet-plate/8149.html]Wholesale Price No.4 Finish 4 X 8 Stainless Steel Sheet 410[/url] Stainless steel sliding door, people have fully realized the advantages of using stainless steel in structural application. Several design criteria include 304 and 316 stainless steels. Because "duplex" stainless steel 2205 has combined good atmospheric corrosion resistance with high tensile strength and elastic limit strength, it is also included in the European code. Many products are produced in special shapes and in metal sizes. The most commonly used products are made of thin and strip steel, and medium and heavy plates are also used to produce special products, such as hot-rolled and extruded structural sections. There are also round, elliptical, square, rectangular and hexagonal welded or seamless steel pipes and other forms of products, including profiles, bars, wires and castings.
