Stainless steel 304 is a type of austenitic stainless steel, which is a highly corrosion-resistant alloy that is commonly used in food processing equipment, kitchen appliances, and other materials that come into contact with food and beverages. It is an alloy that contains a minimum of 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which helps to provide its excellent corrosion resistance properties. Additionally, stainless steel 304 also contains small amounts of carbon, manganese, silicon, and phosphorus, which help to improve its strength and durability. Overall, stainless steel 304 is a versatile and durable material that is well-suited for a wide variety of applications.
