304 Stainless Steel Strip

Description

Product Description of 304 Stainless Steel Strip

304 stainless steel strip is a flat-rolled steel product made from one of the most widely used stainless steel grades—AISI 304. This austenitic alloy contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel, providing outstanding resistance to oxidation and corrosion. The strip form is available in various widths and thicknesses, typically cold-rolled to achieve tight tolerances and a smooth finish.

Whether used in springs, clamps, electronic components, kitchen equipment, or architectural trims, 304 stainless steel strip delivers consistent mechanical properties, surface quality, and corrosion performance.
