Insights on Stainless Steel 304 Plates: Characteristics & Advantages

Stainless Steel 304 plate is an austenitic chromium nickel steel alloy renowned for its composed features
  • Corrosion Resistance: outstanding durability to a large selection of atmospheric, chemical and food industry reactive agents.
  • Strength & Durability: Offers good tensile and yield strength making it ideal for constructional and structural operations
  • Formability & Weldability: Grade 304 exhibits good forming and welding characteristics. The 304L variant is preferred for heavy-section welding to prevent sensitization.
  • High-Temperature Resistance: Can withstand moderately high temperatures. For applications demanding superior high temperature strength 304H is often chosen.
  • Hygienic Properties: Its smooth, leakproof surface is easy to clean making it perfect for sanitary applications.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Offers a clean modern look appropriate for architectural and decorative uses.
While closely related to stainless steel 304 sheet plates are generally thicker typically 5mm or 3/16 inch and above and are mostly used for critical or heavy duty applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Stainless Steel 304 Plates

What is the difference between Stainless Steel 304 Plate and Stainless Steel 304 Sheet?

Generally, “plate” refers to stainless steel that is 5mm (or 3/16 inch) thick or more, while “sheet” is thinner. Plates are often used for more structural or heavy-duty applications, whereas sheets are common for lighter fabrications, paneling, and appliances.

What is stainless steel 304 plate thickness?

Stainless steel 304 plate thickness typically ranges from 3 mm to 100 mm, depending on the specific application and requirements.

What is the typical 304 stainless steel plate price?

The 304 stainless steel plate price (or ss 304 plate price) varies based on factors like plate thickness, dimensions, surface finish, quantity ordered, and current market conditions for raw materials. For an accurate, up-to-date quote, please contact Lakshay Steel with your specific requirements.

Can Lakshay Steel provide MTC (Material Test Certificates) for 304 plates?

Yes, Lakshay Steel provides Manufacturer Test Certificates (MTC) as per EN 10204 3.1 for all our Stainless Steel 304 Plates. We can also arrange for third-party inspection and NABL approved lab testing upon request.

Do you offer custom cutting for 304 stainless plates?

Absolutely. Lakshay Steel provides precision cutting services (plasma, laser, waterjet) to deliver 304 plates cut to your exact size and shape specifications.

What is SS 304 plate density?

The density of SS 304 plate is approximately 8.0 g/cm 3 (grams per cubic centimeter).

Can 304 stainless steel rust?

Yes, 304 stainless steel can rust, especially in harsh environments or if damaged. Proper maintenance helps prevent corrosion

Which is better: 304 or 316 stainless steel?

304 stainless steel is more cost-effective, while 316 stainless steel offers better corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments due to its molybdenum content.
