Types of stainless steel
During smelting process, steel is added by different elements of different quantities, therefore, their characteristics are different. In order to distinguish different kinds steels, all are named by steel numbers. Below is the table of commonly used steel numbers for your reference:
chemical composition（quality score，%）
Steel No. | C | Si | Mn | P | S | Cr | Ni |
304 | ≤0.08 | ≤1.00 | ≤2.00 | ≤0.045 | ≤0.03 | 18-20 | 8-10 |
301 | ≤0.15 | ≤1.00 | ≤2.00 | ≤0.045 | ≤0.03 | 16-18 | 6-8 |
202 | ≤0.15 | ≤1.00 | 7.5-10 | ≤0.05 | ≤0.03 | 17-19 | 4-6 |
201 | ≤0.15 | ≤1.00 | 5.5-7.5 | ≤0.05 | ≤0.03 | 16-18 | 3.5-5.5 |
