2. SAE 304 stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_304_stainless_steel

   SAE 304 stainless steel is the most common stainless steel. It is an alloy of iron, carbon, chromium and nickel. It is an austenitic stainless steel, and is therefore not magnetic. It is less electrically and thermally conductive than carbon steel. It has a higher corrosion resistance than regular steel and is widely used because of the ease in ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains iron with chromium and other elements such as molybdenum , carbon , nickel and nitrogen depending on its specific use and cost.

   304L Stainless steel, a low-carbon variant of 304 steel, is used for ultra-high vacuum systems. 316L stainless steel a low-carbon and low-magnetic stainless steel, used in accelerator technologies. 347 stainless steel does not accept high polish. 321 stainless steel is chosen when low magnetic permeability is needed. Mild steel can be used for ...

5. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

   The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless steel is Type 304, also known as 18/8 or A2. Type 304 is extensively used in such items as cookware, cutlery, and kitchen equipment. Type 316, also known as A4, is the next most common austenitic stainless steel. Some 300 series, such as Type 316, also contain some ...

6. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

   Type 304—the most common grade; the classic 18/8 (18% chromium, 8% nickel) stainless steel. Outside of the US it is commonly known as "A2 stainless steel", in accordance with ISO 3506 (not to be confused with A2 tool steel). [6] The Japanese equivalent grade of this material is SUS304.

7. Intergranular corrosion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intergranular_corrosion

   The photos show the typical microstructure of a normalized (unsensitized) type 304 stainless steel and a heavily sensitized steel. The samples have been polished and etched before taking the photos, and the sensitized areas show as wide, dark lines where the etching fluid has caused corrosion. The dark lines consist of carbides and corrosion ...
