Technical Specifications
Product Overview
Metallurgical Characteristics
JIS SUS304L is an austenitic stainless steel with a face-centered cubic crystal structure that provides excellent ductility and formability. The low carbon content (≤ 0.030%) minimizes carbide precipitation during welding and high-temperature exposure, ensuring superior intergranular corrosion resistance. The balanced chromium-nickel composition creates a stable austenitic matrix that remains non-magnetic in the annealed condition.
Heat Treatment Process
MetalZenith employs controlled solution annealing at 1010-1120°C followed by rapid cooling to achieve optimal microstructure. Our continuous annealing lines feature precise temperature control (±5°C) and protective atmosphere processing to prevent oxidation and ensure consistent mechanical properties. Post-annealing pickling and passivation treatments enhance surface corrosion resistance.
Manufacturing Process Excellence
Our integrated production process begins with electric arc furnace melting followed by AOD refining to achieve precise chemical composition. Continuous casting produces high-quality billets that undergo hot rolling, cold rolling, and precision finishing. Advanced process control systems monitor temperature, reduction ratios, and surface quality throughout production to ensure consistent material properties.
Quality Standards & Testing
All JIS SUS304L products undergo comprehensive testing including chemical analysis by optical emission spectroscopy, mechanical property evaluation per JIS Z2241, and corrosion resistance testing according to ASTM A262. Our quality management system ensures full traceability from raw materials to finished products, with complete mill test certificates provided for every shipment.
