SUS304 and SS304 are both representatives of austenitic chromium nickel stainless steel and are often used to represent the same material. These two grades are essentially the same, but come from different standards and countries:
1. SUS304: SUS304 is an abbreviation for Japanese Industrial Standards, therefore SUS304 is represented by this standard. SUS304 is a common 18-8 type stainless steel containing 18% chromium and 8% nickel, with good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
SS304: SS is the abbreviation for Stainless Steel, so SS304 is commonly used as a standard and manufacturer in the United States, Europe, and other regions. SS304 has a chemical composition similar to SUS304 and is suitable for various fields, including food processing, chemical engineering, construction, etc.
3. Performance characteristics: SUS304 and SS304 are both austenitic stainless steels with excellent corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and plasticity. They are easy to process and weld and are widely used in manufacturing equipment, containers, pipelines, etc.
4. Application areas: These two materials are often used interchangeably in practical applications, such as kitchen utensils, medical equipment, building decoration, and other fields. Both SUS304 and SS304 have similar basic properties and uses.
