Stainless Steel 304 Channel

AISI 304 grade stainless steel contains stainless steel 304 Channel structural profile used in stainless steel which belongs to 300-series austenitic stainless steels, and encompasses 18-20 percent chromium and 8-10.5 nickel and trace elements of manganese, silicon and carbon.

This 304 grade is identified by its name in the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) designation and the UNS number is S30400.This kind of stainless steel will be called the most popular type of stainless steel due to its flexible application. This structure, usually in a shape resembling a C or U, can be used to carry structural loads and is resistant to deformation when subjected to a stress load; it is best suited to framing, bracing and manufacturing purposes in industry

Channel Stainless Steel 304 is the material that is somewhat preferred because it has got remarkable physical and mechanical features:

• Corrosion resistance: It is one of the most striking aspects of SS 304 as this steel material offers resistance against rust and corrosion across many environments which include the industrial atmospheres, urban atmospheres and even the marine atmospheres.
• Tensile Strength: SS 304 has an average tensile strength of approximately 515 umf which is used in mild to harsh loads in any structural use.
• Yield Strength: Yields at about 205MPa; it is able to be used to support a load without permanent deformation.
• Temperature Resistance: May be utilized even in the environment where there is a lot of heat as it is durable up to 870 o c temperature.
• Weld ability: is easily welded under most standard processes, and there is a low probability of carbide precipitation when low carbon variants (304L) are used.
• Formability: Has a good fabrics and machinability that do not crack and warp.

• Construction: It is employed in beams, curtain wall construction, railings and structure frames.
• Automotive: Used in the manufacture of vehicle frames, bumper reinforcements and protective trim where strength and corrosion resistance is a priority.
• Food Processing: Sanitary, rust-resistant equipment, frames, and enclosures need to be used in the same specifications; this is because food processing would have to conform to the requirement of hygiene.
• Marine Applications: It is acceptable to use in shipbuilding and dock arrangements where medium salt exposure exists.
• Manufacturing: Incorporated in machinery foundations, conveyor structures and workshops in which there is a need of strength and simple cleaning.

• Durability: It also resists corrosion in harsh conditions as well as changes in elevated temperatures and mechanical action.
• Flexibility: The SS 304 Channel is applicable in architecture, agriculture as well as in chemical processing.
• Cost-Effective Performance: Although it is not the most economical, the low maintenance costs and long span make it a very economical material to use in the long-run.
• Eco friendly The stainless steel is 100 percent recyclable and thus a good way of sustainable construction as far as being eco-friendly is concerned.

Stainless Steel 304 Channel is an ideal and heavy duty fashion plate that has unparalleled ability in respect to many industries. Its capacity to resist corrosion, strength and formability has made it be a favourite among engineers, architects and manufactures who require efficient long lasting solutions.
