Stainless steel is one of
the most widely used and versatile type of steel. Stainless steel is often
referred to as 'corrosion-resistant steel' - it does not stain, corrode or rust
as easily as normal carbon steel. There are more than 60 grades of stainless
steel and divided into five families.Stainless steel plate is used to manufacture products in a variety of industries
where extreme conditions may exist such as marine, oil & gas, chemical
processing, power generation, food processing, wastewater and other
applications. Asiamet is a stockist, supplier and exporter of high quality
stainless steel plates as per ASTM A240 in various sizes and grades such as
304/304L, 316/316L, 321/321H, 347/347H & Duplex 2205.
Due to its anti-corrosive properties,
stainless steel plates have become essential in the composition of parts for
the medical, tooling, mechanical and food industries. 316 stainless steel
plates are part of the austenitic family of stainless steel and is the most
widely used varieties of stainless plate. 316 grades contain a higher level
of Nickel than 304 giving it an improved corrosion resistance over 304 grades.
