Detailed Engineering Specifications

Purpose-built for heavy-duty applications, this 304 stainless steel stock sheet measures 0.075 inches (1.905 mm) in thickness, 31 inches (787.4 mm) in length, and 24 inches (609.6 mm) in width. Fabricated from AISI 304 stainless steel, it offers excellent resistance to a broad range of corrosive media and atmospheric conditions due to its 18% chromium and 8% nickel composition. This grade is non-magnetic in the annealed condition and exhibits good formability and weldability, making it suitable for fabrication into guards, enclosures, machine covers, and protective barriers in chemical processing, food and beverage, and manufacturing facilities.
