Available materials
Stainless Steel 304
Stainless steel 304 has a lower cost compared to other types of stainless steel. It also is better at corrosion resistance than other variations. Another plus of 304 is it;s improved strength and durability properties.
Stainless Steel 303
Stainless Steel 303 is less corrosion resistant than other variations. It is also easier to machine. This material is perfect for projects that are heavily detailed like gears and shafts and will require precision.
Stainless Steel 316
Stainless steel 316 is extremely corrosion-resistant. It is also easy to weld and form, which makes it flexible for working into big projects. This material is a good option for boat fittings and chemical-related projects.
Stainless Steel 17-4PH
Stainless steel 17-4PH is precipitation hardened, which means that it is more corrosion resistant than other options. However, it is generally less mechanically sturdy than other material options. It can be used for chemical projects or turbines.
