304 Stainless Steel Sheets

Here’s a clear reference for Stainless Steel Grade 304 Sheets:

🔹 Stainless Steel 304 (UNS S30400)

Stainless Steel 304 is the most widely used austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, good formability & weldability, and is used in both industrial and household applications.

📌 Chemical Composition (Typical Range)

Element % Composition Chromium (Cr) 18.0 – 20.0 % Nickel (Ni) 8.0 – 10.5 % Manganese (Mn) ≤ 2.0 % Silicon (Si) ≤ 1.0 % Carbon (C) ≤ 0.07 % Phosphorus (P) ≤ 0.045 % Sulfur (S) ≤ 0.030 % Nitrogen (N) ≤ 0.10 % Iron (Fe) Balance

📌 Standard Sheet Sizes (India & International Market)

1000 × 2000 mm
1220 × 2440 mm (4 ft × 8 ft)
1250 × 2500 mm
1500 × 3000 mm
Larger jumbo sizes are also available on request.

📌 Thickness Range

Cold Rolled (CR) Sheets: 0.3 mm – 6 mm
Hot Rolled (HR) Plates/Sheets: 3 mm – 50 mm (sometimes up to 80 mm as heavy plates)

📌 Common Finishes

2B: Smooth, cold-rolled, most common finish
BA (Bright Annealed): Mirror-like, highly reflective
No.4 (Matt/Brushed): Satin finish, commonly used in kitchens, elevators, interiors
Mirror Finish (8K): Decorative, architectural applications

✅ Widely used in:

Kitchenware & food processing equipment
Chemical & pharmaceutical industries
Architectural applications (cladding, railings)
Automotive and transportation sectors

Would you like me to also compare 304 vs 202 stainless steel (strength, corrosion resistance, cost, applications) in a side-by-side table for your team’s reference?
