ASTM A240 304 Stainless Steel Plate - SHH STEEL

ASTM A240 / ASME SA240 Type 304 Stainless Steel Plate and Sheet (UNS
S30400)

1. Product Introduction
SHH STEEL (Shanghai Shenghonghe Import & Export Co., Ltd.) supplies
ASTM A240 / ASME SA240 Type 304 Stainless Steel Plate and Sheet. ASTM
A240 Type 304, also known as SS304, UNS S30400 or SUS304, is the most
widely used austenitic stainless steel grade under the ASTM A240 /
ASME SA240 specification. It offers an outstanding combination of
corrosion resistance, formability, weldability and cost-
effectiveness. Type 304 contains approximately 18% chromium and 8%
nickel, providing excellent resistance to a wide range of
atmospheric, chemical and food-processing environments. Its
austenitic structure gives very good ductility and deep-drawing
ability, it is non-magnetic in the annealed condition, and it retains
good toughness at low temperatures. It is readily welded by common
fusion welding methods and is suitable for both cold-formed sheet and
hot-rolled plate applications, from thin decorative panels to heavy
plate for tanks and pressure equipment. Typical applications include
food and beverage equipment, chemical processing, architecture and
construction, pressure vessels and tanks, and kitchen and sanitary
equipment. Available surface finishes include No.1, 2B, 2D, BA, No.4,
HL (Hairline) and 8K Mirror; protective PVC film can be applied on
one or both sides for architectural or specific functional
requirements. Product forms available include plate, sheet, coil,
strip, foil, shim, circle and ring.

2. Standards We Can Supply
ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240 (full compliance). Dimensional tolerances and
flatness follow ASTM A480; equivalent designations: UNS S30400 /
SUS304 / SS304. Material can also be offered against equivalent EN,
JIS and GB designations listed above.

3. Grades We Can Supply
Austenitic: 304, 304L, 304H, 304N, 304LN, 316, 316L, 321, 310S.
Duplex: 2205 (UNS S32205 / S31803). Ferritic: 430. This offer focuses
on 304; other related A240 plate grades are available on request.

4. Thickness, Width and Length Range
Thickness: 0.3 mm - 100 mm. Size: width up to 2500 mm and length up
to 12000 mm; custom sizes are available on request.

5. Processing
Steel cutting services (shearing, precision plasma, laser or waterjet
cutting), slitting, leveling and cut-to-length, steel bending and
forming, steel welding, CNC steel machining and stainless surface
finishing / polishing (No.4, HL, 8K mirror). Edge conditions include
mill edge, slit edge, sheared edge or plasma/laser cut edge according
to customer preference. Width tolerance is typically +6 mm / 0 mm and
length tolerance for cut-to-length material is normally +10 mm / 0
mm; improved flatness and tighter tolerances can be arranged for
precision fabrication.

6. Delivery Time
Stock material: 5-6 days. Normal production orders: 30-40 days.

7. Payment Terms
T/T and L/C accepted; specific payment terms are negotiated per
order.

8. Trade Terms
FOB / CIF / CFR.

9. Delivery Condition
Hot rolled (No.1, heavy plate) and cold rolled (2B/BA, sheet),
supplied in the annealed condition.

10. Quality Assurance
Mill test certificate supplied with every shipment (global export
with full MTCs). Chemical composition and mechanical properties
conform to ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240.
