Specifications of stainless steel grades.
AISI 304 – Is the most highly alloyed steel as well it is the most universal and commonly used among all stainless steel grades. Its chemical composition, mechanical properties, weldability and corrosion / oxidation resistance are the most optimal for use in food industry. Equipment made of this steel grade proves its highest stability and reliability in severe operating conditions.
AISI 201 – This steel grade is relatively low-cost substitute of the AISI 304 steel grade due to partial substitution of nickel for manganese as one of the alloying elements. It is less durable steel than AISI 304.
AISI 430 – This is low-alloyed nickel-free stainless steel.
It is recommended to use as a substitute of AISI 304 steel grade.
It is suitable for operation in hot workshops. Equipment made of this steel grade is not recommended to be used in open air, where penetration of precipitation and enhanced radiation is possible. Penetration of corrosive acids, chlorine and other corrosives should be avoided.
