Corrosion Resistance: 304 stainless stands up excellently in various atmospheric environments even when exposed to corrosive elements.
Heat Resistance: Continuous use of 304 between 425-860⁰C is not recommended. However, it is resistant to carbide precipitation and can be heated in high temperatures.
Easy to weld with excellent weldability.
Excellent strength and toughness in high temperatures
Although 304 can be used in most industrial applications, most commonly it can be found present in food processing equipment, kitchen equipment, architectural paneling, railing & trim, heat exchangers, threaded fasteners, springs, braces, marine, etc.
