SUS304 is an austenitic stainless steel. It is one of the most widely used and versatile type of steel. As a lead-free material, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, heat resistance and low temperature toughness.

SUS 304 is also known as AISI 304 (American Iron and Steel Institute). It is the most common austenitic stainless steel. Grade 304 is the standard 18/8 stainless; it is the most versatile and most widely used stainless steel.

SUS304 is usually used in the manufacture of equipment and parts that require good overall performance (corrosion resistance and formability). It is widely used in the food industry and chemical industry, as well as in water supply pipes, general-purpose piping and the like. It is also used for architectural painting and sculpture decorations.

The major uses of SUS304 stainless steel are as follows.

• Industrial uses: It has good strength and excellent corrosion resistance in many industrial applications, such as food and beverage processing equipment, medical equipment, chemical process components and general purpose machining.
• Decorative uses: SUS304 has excellent corrosion resistance and decorative properties. It is widely used in the interior decoration of the home, hotels, restaurants, and commercial buildings, such as elevator doors, wall panels, door frames, window frames and storefronts.
• Automotive uses: SUS304 is used in automotive manufacturing, such as making car bodies, car suspension parts, parts of fuel injection systems and exhaust systems.
• Aerospace uses: SUS304 is used in the manufacture of aircraft engine components, airframes and landing gear assemblies.
• Marine uses: Because of its excellent corrosion resistance, SUS304 is used in many marine applications. It is commonly used for making pumps, desalination plants, chemical tanks, and marine hardware.
• Medical uses: SUS304 is used for various medical instrument applications, such as making needles, syringes, scalpel blades and endoscope.

SUS304 works in a wide variety of applications including those in food and beverage processing, chemical processing, aircraft and aerospace components, pressure vessels, and gas and oil production equipment. It can also be used for many aesthetic purposes including interior and exterior decoration because of its corrosion resistance.

The working principle of SUS304 is simple. The metal atoms in this alloy form a stable crystalline lattice structure. This structure gives the alloy remarkable strength and resistance to mechanical stress, excellent corrosion resistance, good formability and weldability by fusion or resistance welding.

SUS304 is resistant to various types of corrosion, including oxidation, with temperatures up to around 1000 °C. This alloy also exhibits high resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. Furthermore, it is one of the few metals that is non-magnetic.

SUS304 is truly an all-purpose stainless steel. It is widely used in various industries because of its excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and ease of fabrication. SUS304 proves to be a great choice for demanding applications.
