The properties of 304/316 stainless steel are corrosion resistance, high ductility, attractive appearance and low maintenance.
304/316 Stainless steel contains chromium which provides the properties of corrosion resistance at high temperatures. Stainless steel can withstand corrosive or chemical environments due to its smooth surface. Stainless steel products are safe for long-term use with excellent resistance of corrosion fatigue.
Application
Stainless steel seamless pipe can resist high temperatures for cleanliness and maintain the purity of materials which contact stainless steel directly. Stainless steel pipe and tubing are used in chemical plants, aviation fields, marine equipment, cryogenic transportation, medical and architectural industries.

Austenitic stainless steel is widely available in bar, wire, tube, pipe, sheet, and plate forms; Most products require additional forming or machining before they can be used for their specific application.
Stainless steel tubing, for instance, may need bending or coiling, re-drawing, machining, welding, or end forming. If your stainless steel will see machining processes like CNC machining, drilling, reaming, bevel cutting, chamfering, knurling, or threading, choose a machining rate that mitigates the risk of work hardening or select a "free machining" grade containing sulfur.
