304 Stainless Steel Properties and Applications

The 304 stainless steel option is among the most popular thanks to its versatility and usefulness across many architectural and industrial applications. It contains about 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which makes it durable and long-lasting. This type of stainless steel is commonly found in:

Appliances
Food industry operations
Medical tools
Sculptures
Automotive components
Elevators

316 Stainless Steel Properties and Applications

The main difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel is that the latter contains 16% chromium and 10% nickel, along with a small amount of molybdenum. This difference in makeup gives 316 stainless steel increased corrosion resistance, making it the ideal choice for applications such as:

Marine equipment
Pharmaceuticals
Chemical processing
