STAINLESS STEEL SHEETS PLATES

About Stainless Sheets & Plates

The stainless steel sheet is a very versatile product which can be used in a wide range of applications. They are primarily used in different industries due to its features like corrosion resistance, formability, and longevity. The SS Sheet can typically be used in transportation, construction, marine, textile and various other applications. The plates are popular mostly for their properties like high corrosion resistance and weldability. They are very effective in acidic environments and offer resistance to pitting corrosion.


The 2b Finish Stainless Steel Sheet is smooth and comes with moderately reflective cold rolled finish.


However the final cold rolling pass is done with the help of the polished rolls. It is the most abundantly used and economical stainless steel surface finish available in the market. The 2B forms the basis for most of the brushed and polished finishes available on the stainless steel surfaces.


A polished stainless steel sheet comes with a brighter appearance and their surfaces remain more protected against the effects of corrosion. They come with a non-reflective brush finish which is obtained by first grinding and then finishing with around 120-150 mesh abrasives.


A mirror finish Sheet means that it has a non-directional finish, which basically looks like a mirror. They have a highly smooth and polished commercial finish, and it is characterized by a shiny, bright, and reflective surface.


304:

304 Grade is the most widely used stainless steel with good resistance to atmospheric corrosion and to many organic and inorganic chemicals. This grade has excellent workability, weldability and impact strength. It is sometimes known as 18/8 stainless steel, since it contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel. It is suitable for use in a variety of applications, in fact it is the most common stainless steel, and about 60% of all stainless steel used in the world is grade 304.


304L:

304L Grade is a low carbon < 0.030% variant of 304 with the same corrosion resistance, but with less susceptibility to sensitisation when welded at thicknesses of 4 mm or greater, or after heat treatment. Sensitisation can allow intergranular corrosion to occur. Grade 304L is used in parts of 4mm and thicker which will be welded but not post weld annealed. Parts made from this grade are generally limited to service at temperatures up to 425ºC. The physical properties and thermal treatments are similar to those of grade 304.


316:

Stainless Steel Grade 316, is known as the marine alloy. The corrosion resistance is improved by an addition of 2 to 3% of molybdenum, as well as 18% chromium and 10% nickel. Grade 316 has better corrosion resistance than grade 304 in many chemicals as well as in marine atmospheres. Grade 316 also has applications in the chemical, textile and paper industries. It has similar strength to grade 304, and gives better performance in deep drawing.


316L:

316L Grade is a low carbon (< 0.030%) variant of 316 with the same corrosion resistance, but with less susceptibility to sensitisation when welded at thicknesses of 4 mm or greater, or after heat treatment. Sensitisation can allow intergranular corrosion to occur. Grade 316L is used in parts of 4mm and thicker which will be welded but not post weld annealed. Parts made from this type are generally limited to service at temperatures up to 425ºC. The physical properties and thermal treatments are similar to those of grade 316.
