304/304L Stainless Steel Plate/Sheet
304 stainless steel is an austenitic grade known for its excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and weldability. Comprising 18% chromium and 8% nickel, it offers good strength and durability, making it a versatile material for various applications. Resistant to most oxidizing acids, 304 stainless steel is widely used in food processing and handling, kitchen equipment, architectural paneling, and chemical containers. Their ability to withstand atmospheric corrosion, coupled with their ease of cleaning, also makes them suitable for medical and pharmaceutical applications. This grade’s balanced properties ensure its prominence in both industrial and domestic settings.

Heat Treatment
Annealing: Anneal at 1850 – 1950 °F (1010 – 1066 °C), then water quench or rapidly air cool.
The annealing temperature should be kept as low as possible, consistent with the desired properties, because Type 201 tends to scale more than Type 301
