What is the difference between edible stainless steel, medical stainless steel and ordinary stainless steel?

304

18Cr-8Ni, as a widely used steel, has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties. Good hot workability such as stamping and bending, no heat treatment hardening phenomenon (no magnetism, service temperature-196℃~800℃). Household articles (1 and two kinds of tableware, cabinets, indoor pipes, water heaters, boilers, bathtubs), automobile parts (wipers, silencers, molded products), medical devices, building materials, chemicals, food industry, agriculture, and ship parts.

304L

18Cr-8Ni- low carbon steel, as a low-carbon steel, generally has similar corrosion resistance to 304 steel, but its grain boundary corrosion resistance is excellent after welding or stress relief. Good corrosion resistance can be maintained without heat treatment, and the service temperature is-196℃~800℃. Used for outdoor machines with high requirements for grain boundary corrosion resistance in chemical, coal and petroleum industries, heat-resistant parts of building materials and parts with difficult heat treatment.

304Cu

13Cr-7.7Ni-2Cu has good formability, especially wiredrawing and aging cracking resistance, so it can be used to form products with complex shapes. Its corrosion resistance is the same as that of 304. Vacuum flask, kitchen sink, pot, kettle, insulated lunch box, door handle, textile processing machine.

304N 1

18Cr-8Ni-N On the basis of 304 steel, the contents of S and Mn are reduced, and N element is added to prevent the plasticity from decreasing, improve the strength and reduce the thickness of the steel. Components, street lamps, water storage tanks, water pipes

304N2

Compared with 304, 18Cr-8Ni-N is made of high strength steel with N and Nb added. Assembly, street lamp, water storage tank

3 16

18Cr- 12Ni-2.5Mo has excellent corrosion resistance, atmospheric corrosion resistance and high temperature strength due to the addition of Mo, and can be used in harsh conditions. Excellent work hardening (no magnetism). Equipment used in seawater, chemicals, dyes, paper, oxalic acid, fertilizer and other production equipment; Photography, food industry, facilities in coastal areas, ropes, CD rods, bolts and nuts

3 16L

18Cr- 12Ni-2.5Mo low carbon, as a low-c series of 3 16 steel, has the same characteristics as 3 16 steel and excellent grain boundary corrosion resistance. In the application of 3 16 steel, there are special requirements for grain boundary corrosion resistance.

32 1

18Cr-9Ni-Ti adding Ti to 304 steel to prevent grain boundary corrosion; Suitable for use at 430℃-900℃. Aircraft, exhaust pipe, boiler drum

409 liters

11.3cr-0.17Ti-low c and n have good high-temperature corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength due to the addition of ti. Automotive exhaust pipes, heat exchangers, containers and other products that are not heat treated after welding.

4 10L

13Cr- low c reduces the c content on the basis of 4 10 steel, and has excellent machinability, welding deformation resistance and high temperature oxidation resistance. Mechanical structural parts, engine exhaust pipe, boiler combustion chamber, burner.

430

16Cr, as a representative steel of ferritic steel, has good thermal expansion rate, formability and oxidation resistance. Heat-resistant appliances, burners, household appliances, second-class tableware, kitchen sink, external decorative materials, bolts, nuts, CD sticks, screens.

430J 1L

18-Cr0.5Cu-Nb- low C.N in 430 steel, elements such as Cu and Nb are added; Its corrosion resistance, formability, weldability and high temperature oxidation resistance are good. Building exterior wall decoration materials, auto parts, hot and cold water supply equipment.

436 liters

18Cr- 1Mo-Ti, Nb and Zr have low c and n heat resistance and good wear resistance. Because they contain Nb and Zr elements, they are excellent in machinability and weldability. Washing machine, automobile exhaust pipe, electronic products, three-story boiler.

4 10

13Cr- low carbon steel, as the representative steel of martensitic steel, is not suitable for use in strong corrosive environment, although it has high strength. It has good machinability and surface hardening (magnetism) according to heat treatment. Blades, mechanical parts, petroleum refining devices, bolts, nuts, sucker rods, 1 cutlery (knives and forks).

420J 1

13Cr-0.2C has high hardness and good corrosion resistance (magnetism) after quenching. Tableware (knife), turbine blade.

420J2

The hardness of 13Cr-0.3C after quenching is higher than 420J 1 steel (magnetic). Blade, nozzle, valve, ruler, tableware (scissors, knife).
