What is the difference between 316 and 304 stainless steel tubes

In our life there are many products made of stainless steel, for example, there are 304, 316 stainless steel pipe. These are all stainless steel materials, their performance is also different, the following I will talk to you briefly about the difference between these two kinds of stainless steel.

The difference between 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel.
1.In terms of price, 316 stainless steel is more expensive, mainly because the production costs are higher, the service life is also longer.
2.304 and 316 two types of stainless steel use range is different, 316 stainless steel use a wider range of some, such as this material can play a great role in the food industry, medical equipment and other industries.
3.But the two biggest difference or corrosion resistance, generally speaking, 304 stainless steel corrosion resistance has been better, so life will find a lot of are made of 304 stainless steel. You can see it on the packaging, like the thermos cup, which is 304, which is food grade level. Compared with 316, it has stronger corrosion resistance. Some strong acids and bases will not cause corrosion to it. Pouring it into boiling water or ice water will not affect its performance.

What are the application areas of 304 stainless steel.

304 stainless steel is a common steel, Zhejiang Bewell ® Co., LTD. Production of 304 stainless steel high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, is widely used.
1. Our commonly used thermos cup is made of 304 stainless steel, which can be found at the bottom with the mark of 304. Generally speaking, it has reached food grade. The safety factor of stainless steel is relatively high, especially the children's thermos cup, choose 304 has been able to meet the demand.
2. In life, the kitchen and bathroom because of the humidity, to choose 304 stainless steel, can ensure long-term rust, because its corrosion resistance is very strong. It can be used to make steel pipes.
Zhejiang Bewell ® Steel Industry Co., Ltd. is China's professional stainless steel seamless pipe manufacturers, stainless steel pipe production and processing from the 90's manual shoulder development to now we have formed a standardized, systematic, standardized production, requiring products to reach 100% detection, 99% pass rate, so that your choice more assured, We look forward to a long term relationship with you.
