Type 304 - Austenitic stainless steel
Type 304 Stainless Steel is a variation of the basic 18-8 grade, Type 302, with a higher chromium and lower carbon content. Its lower carbon minimizes chromium carbide precipitation due to welding and its susceptibility to intergranular corrosion. In many instances, Type 304 can be used in the “as-welded” condition, while Type 302 must be annealed in order to retain adequate corrosion resistance.
Grade 304 stainless steel is found in a variety of commercial sectors, particularly in the chemical industry.
Typical Applications
Architectural mouldings and trim, kitchen equipment, welded
components of chemical, textile, paper, pharmaceutical and
chemical, industry processing equipment.
MasterSource offers a complete line of type 304 stainless steel inventory as noted below.
