304L / 1.4306 Stainless Steel Strip Coil ASTM EN DIN JIS SS Strip Roll Width 5 - 1219mm

304L has oxidation resistance to a maximum temperature of 1650° F (899° C) continuously without appreciable scaling. The maximum temperature for intermittent exposure is 1500° F (816° C). Since 304L is an extra low-carbon variation of 304 it can often be used in the "as-welded" condition (without annealing), even in severe corrosive conditions, except for applications specifying stress relief. 304L has good welding characteristics and can be welded by all standard methods but attention needs to be paid to avoid weld "hot cracking". Welding may be followed by annealing to relieve stresses during severe forming or spinning.

Common Applications Of 304 And 304L Stainless Steel Strip

304 stainless steel strip is the most widely used chromium-nickel stainless steel.

It has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties.

This strip has good hot workability such as stamping and bending without heat treatment. It is resistant to corrosion in the atmosphere.

It is suitable for food processing line, storage and transportation, plate heat exchangers, bellows, household products, auto parts, medical appliances, building materials, chemicals industry, food industry, agriculture, ship parts, etc.

304 stainless steel is a nationally recognized food grade stainless steel material.

304L stainless steel strip is widely used in automotive structures, chemical industry, food processing industry, marine environment industry, springs, welded parts and heat exchangers industry.

304L stainless steel strip can be also used in heavy industrial applications, especially in high-corrosion environments.
