Material Specification

Choosing the Right Grade

304 Stainless

Standard grade for indoor machinery, automation, and dry or mildly humid environments. Good resistance to cleaning chemicals. Cost-effective for high-volume orders. Not suitable for continuous salt spray or chloride-heavy process environments.

Food · Automation · Indoor

316 / 316L

Marine and food-grade standard. 2–3% molybdenum addition raises chloride pitting resistance significantly above 304. Required for outdoor, marine, offshore, and food equipment with CIP chemical cleaning. Especially 316 stainless steel has excellent resistance to corrosive saltwater effects.

Marine · Chemical · Pumps

17-4PH

Precipitation-hardened martensitic grade. ≥ 1,310 MPa tensile strength in H900 condition — significantly stronger than 316 at equivalent cross-section. Specified for ball joints in motorsport, aerospace, and high-cycle fatigue applications where load ratings are the primary constraint.

FAQ

Common Questions

Not seeing your question? Email us at [email protected] and we typically reply same day.

Do you support custom molds or special-shaped parts?

Yes, custom molds and special-shaped parts are supported. Minimum order quantity needs to be discussed in advance.

What surface condition is best for my application?

Purchasers must match finish to use case: ground bars for shafts, polished bars for hygienic equipment, pickled bars for structural use.

How do I verify material authenticity before purchasing?

We can provide PMI (Positive Material Identification) testing, third-party inspection reports, or sample verification

What is the packaging method (moisture-proof wooden case / anti-rust paper + bundling)?

Standard packaging: individually sealed bag + bubble wrap for shock protection + reinforced outer carton. Packaging can be customized according to customer requirements, including custom packaging solutions.

What payment methods do you accept?
