General Introduction of Grade 201 stainless steel

Shandong Jinbaicheng Metal Materials Co., Ltd is located in Liaocheng City of China, focusing on stainless area for more than 15 years.With the support of the mills, we keep large stock of cold and hot rolled stainless steel coils,with grade 304/304L, 316L, 430, 409L, 201 etc. We have our own slitting and cutting production lines, and we can produce coils and sheets in any size according to customer’s requests.

Stainless steel in grade 201 is a type of stainless steel in about 200 types – austenite (stainless steel is classified into the main types of austenitic, ferritic, austenitic-ferritic (Duplex), Martensitic, Precipitation Hardening). The stainless steel in garde 201 has higher manganese and nitrogen content and lessen the nickel content. Because the composition of different components also make the stainless steel in grade 201 characteristics compared to other types of stainless steel, there are superior advantages and also more defects.

1.The Chemical composition table of the stainless steel in grade 201?

2.The characteristics of the stainless steel in grade 201?

Like the other stainless steel , the stainless steel  in grade 201 also has durability, corrosion resistance, heat resistance as well as maintenance, hygiene and aesthetic advantages. However, because of the different chemical elements, the level of these advantages is also slightly different from the other stainless steel. Typically, the Nikel component in the stainless steel in grade 201 is lower than the stainless steel in grade 304 so the stainless steel in grade 201 will have more hardness, more susceptible to corrosion than the stainless steel in grade 304 and The surface is not as shiny as the  stainless in grade 304. However, the durability of the stainless steel in grade 201 is quite high. This is one of the strengths that the stainless steel in grade 201 brings.

The Stainless steel in grade 201 is an easy-to-work material because of its good shape. Machining methods such as cutting or welding can be done on this type of stainless steel.

The stainless steel in grade 201 is non-magnetic, is widely applied to products that enhance the resistance of words. But for products that need magnetism,, The stainless steel in grade 201  is necessary to add a layer of the stainless steel in grade 410 or 430 in the outer layer.

3.Is the stainless steel in grade 201 rusty?

Because the stainless steel in grade 201 has a higher manganese structure and lower Nikel ratio, although the general feature of the stainless steel is corrosion resistant, The stainless steel in grade 201 is still more susceptible to rust than the stainless steel in grade 304 and 316. Hence,The price of the stainless steel in grade 201 is relatively cheaper. However, if compared with non-stainless steel materials (plastic, steel, aluminum …), the stainless steel in grade 201  is considered a relatively good choice for products that need durability and antioxidant.

4.What is the melting temperature of the stainless steel in grade 201?

Stainless steel is a heat-resistant material. In there, The stainless steel in grade 201 has a peak temperature for melting at about 1400 – 1450 ° C, equivalent to the melting temperature of the stainless steel in grade 304 but lower than other stainless steel

5.Does the stainless steel in grade 201 have electrical conductivity?

This is a question that has received a lot of attention and questions. The answer is yes but not significant. Unlike 100% conductive copper metal or good conductive metals such as gold, silver, iron, aluminum. The stainless steel in grade 201 has an extremely low electrical conductivity. Therefore, stainless steel does not belong to the materials used for electrical conductivity.
