Metal plates 304 316L stainless steel plate and sheet

304 stainless steel plate contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel, with excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for conventional environments such as food processing and building decoration; 316L stainless steel sheet with added molybdenum element has stronger resistance to chloride ion corrosion and is suitable for high corrosion scenarios such as marine engineering and chemical equipment. Both support cold rolling or hot rolling processes to meet different thickness requirements.

Thin 304 316L stainless steel plates (0.1-3mm) are suitable for precision stamping into electronic components, medical devices, and other fine parts; Medium thick plates (3-10mm) are used for ship structures and industrial containers, balancing strength and lightweight. Surface pickling or mirror treatment can enhance durability and aesthetics.

The selection of 304 316L stainless steel materials should be based on the environmental corrosion level: 316L is more suitable for salt spray and acidic media, while 304 has a higher cost-effectiveness. It is recommended to use laser cutting or CNC bending during processing, and regularly clean surface stains to avoid scratching by hard objects, in order to extend the service life of the board and ensure stable performance.
