SS Sheet

A stainless steel sheet is a flat, thin sheet of metal made from an alloy of iron, chromium, and other elements. Stainless steel sheets are used in many industries, including manufacturing, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals.

Material Properties

Stainless steel has many desirable properties that contribute greatly to its widespread application in the making of parts and components across many industrial sectors. Above all, because of its chromium content, it is extremely resistant to corrosion. The 10.5% minimum content makes steel approximately 200 times more resistant to corrosion than steel without chromium. Other favorable properties for consumers are its high strength and durability, high and low-temperature resistance, increased formability and easy fabrication, low maintenance, long-lasting, attractive appearance and it is environmentally friendly and recyclable. Once stainless steel is put into service, it does not need to be treated, coated, or painted.

Material Chemical Compostion

Elements in stainless steel
Chromium: The element that makes stainless steel stainless. All grades of stainless steel contain at least 10.5% chromium.
Nickel: Increases the formability and toughness of the steel.
Carbon: Strengthens and hardens the steel.
Silicon: Deoxidizes the metal and provides corrosion resistance.
Manganese: Strengthens and hardens the steel.
Titanium: Increases weldability and decreases intergranular corrosion.
Molybdenum: Increases resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Stainless steel 316L , Stainless steel 304L: , Stainless steel 430: , Duplex stainless steel:
