Stainless steel sheets are versatile, thin, flat metal sheets known for high corrosion resistance, durability, and a clean, aesthetic, or polished finish. Composed of iron, carbon, and a minimum of 10.5% chromium—which forms a protective, self-healing oxide layer—they are essential for food, aerospace, construction, and chemical applications.
Key Aspects of Stainless Steel Sheets:
Composition & Grades: Primarily iron-based alloys, common grades include 304 (general purpose), 316 (high corrosion resistance, e.g., marine), and 430 (ferritic, decorative).
Properties:
Corrosion & Heat Resistance: Excellent resistance to rust, staining, and extreme temperatures.
Strength & Durability: High mechanical strength and impact resistance.
Hygienic: Non-porous and easy to clean, ideal for food and medical equipment.
Sustainability: 100% recyclable material.
Common Applications:
Kitchen & Food Industry: Appliances, counters, commercial sinks.
Construction: Building facades, roofing, cladding, and elevators.
Industrial: Chemical processing tanks, oil and gas, pharmaceutical equipment.
Finishes: Available in various finishes ranging from raw mill finish to polished (No. 4 brushed) or mirror-like (BA) finishes
