Stainless Steel Materials used for Machining
- SUS 303:
- Nuts and Bolts, Bushings, Shafts, Aircraft Fittings, Gears.
- Electrical Switchgear Components.
- In general any component that is heavily machined and where the corrosion resistance and fabrication properties of 303 are viable.
- SUS 304:
- Food processing equipment, particularly in beer brewing, milk processing & wine making.
- Kitchen benches, sinks, troughs, equipment and appliances.
- Architectural panelling, railings & trim.
- Chemical containers, including for transport.
- Heat Exchangers.
- Woven or welded screens for mining, quarrying & water filtration.
- Threaded fasteners, Springs.
- SUS 316:
- Food preparation equipment particularly in chloride environments.
- Laboratory benches & equipment, Threaded fasteners, Springs.
- Coastal architectural panelling, railings & trim.
- Boat fittings, Chemical containers, including for transport.
- Heat Exchangers, Woven or welded screens for mining, quarrying & water filtration.
- 316Higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion is required, in chloride environments. A lower machining ability can be accepted.
- SUS 416:
- Valve Parts, Pump Shafts, Automatic Screw Machined Parts.
- Motor Shafts, Washing Machine Components.
- Bolts and Nuts, Studs, Gears.
- Even higher machining ability than 303 is needed, and a lower corrosion resistance can be tolerated. Or hardening by thermal treatment is required, while maintaining a high machining ability.
