We all know that the thickness of stainless steel plate ranges from about 3.0 to 200 mm. So how wide can the widest stainless steel plate be? The current national standard GB/T 4237-2015 “Hot-rolled stainless steel plates and strips” stipulates that the width range of stainless steel thick plates is 600~4800mm. So that HUA steel company can provode the width is 4800mm ,which belongs to customized. What can wide and thick 304/304L stainless steel plates be used for? Zyta will briefly introduce the characteristics and uses of the two stainless steel types 304/304L. 304 stainless steel is the most common and most commonly used steel type, with a carbon content of 0.08%. It has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature stress and mechanical properties. It can be used for hot processing such as stamping and bending, and will not show heat treatment hardening. 304L stainless steel is a derivative steel type of 304 stainless steel, with a carbon content of 0.03%. Under normal circumstances, its performance is similar to that of 304 stainless steel. However, due to its extremely low carbon content, it can maintain excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding or stress relief, which 304 stainless steel does not have. 304/304L stainless steel thick plates are widely used in the production of food equipment, chemical equipment, atomic energy industry and other fields, and can be used to make various containers and pipelines. It is reported that there are two key requirements for 304/304L stainless steel thick plates for liquefied natural gas (LNG) pipelines: one is that they can still maintain good performance (such as toughness) under changes in environment from normal temperature to ultra-low temperature; the other is that with the increase in demand and the improvement of transportation efficiency, the diameter of the pipeline is getting larger and larger, requiring the stainless steel plate to be wider and wider, with a maximum width of more than 4000 mm. So that if you are work in pipelines,chemical equipment ,food equipments factory , you need the heavy thickness stainless steel plates or sheets, welcome to talk with us! We will give your good quality sheets to make sure the your project finished well.
