Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 304 stainless steel stock sheet measures 0.433 inches (11mm) in thickness, 30 inches (762mm) in length, and 20 inches (508mm) in width. Composed of Type 304 stainless steel, it exhibits excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in mild atmospheric conditions and many chemical environments, due to its chromium and nickel content. This material's inherent strength and non-magnetic properties make it ideal for applications requiring hygiene, chemical inertness, and structural integrity. Its substantial gauge is well-suited for fabricating heavy-duty components, work surfaces, and supports within material handling systems.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners in corrosive environments.Utilize stainless steel fasteners (e.g., 316 grade) to prevent galvanic corrosion and maintain system integrity.
Inadequate edge preparation before welding.Properly bevel and clean all edges to ensure full penetration and a strong, defect-free weld.

Common Applications

  • Fabrication of custom shelving and racking systems
  • Construction of heavy-duty workbenches and platforms
  • Creation of protective guards and enclosures for machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid personal injury from sharp edges.
  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during handling and installation.
