Typical 304 Stainless Steel

Type 304 stainless steel is the most common austenitic chromium-nickel

stainless steel and is a variation of the classic 18-8 stainless. 

Its properties provide corrosion resistance to a wide range of atmospheric,

chemical, textile, petroleum, and food industry exposures.
