2mm SUS 304 Steel Plate: Gangsteel Stainless Solution in China

 

Introduction to 2mm SUS 304 Steel Plate

2mm SUS 304 steel plate is a thin austenitic stainless steel plate specified under JIS SUS304, equivalent to ASME SA240 Grade 304, used for applications requiring lightweight durability and corrosion resistance. At 2mm thickness, it is ideal for industries like chemical processing, food production, and construction. Gangsteel, a leading manufacturer and exporter in China, supplies 2mm SUS 304 steel plates in various sizes. As a specialist in ASME SA240 stainless steel plates, Gangsteel offers customized solutions for global clients. This article explains 2mm SUS 304 steel plate, its features, and uses.

 

What is 2mm SUS 304 Steel Plate?

2mm SUS 304 steel plate is a chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steel with 18–20% chromium and 8–10.5% nickel, providing balanced corrosion resistance and mechanical performance at thin gauge. It is non-magnetic in annealed conditions and suitable for forming. Equivalent materials include UNS S30400, EN 1.4301, and JIS SUS304. Gangsteel’s SA240 Gr 304 2mm plates are produced under ASTM A240 stainless plate specifications, ideal for thin applications like cladding and equipment linings.

Comparing 2mm SUS 304 with Other Grades

2mm SUS 304 vs 316: 2mm SUS 304 offers general corrosion resistance and is cost-effective for mild environments, while 2mm SUS 316 includes molybdenum for better chloride resistance, suited for marine or harsh chemical applications.

2mm SUS 304 vs 304L: 2mm SUS 304 provides higher strength, but 2mm SUS 304L, with lower carbon, offers superior weldability and resistance to intergranular corrosion.

2mm SUS 304 vs 201: 2mm SUS 304 has better corrosion resistance due to higher nickel, making it ideal for outdoor use, whereas 2mm SUS 201 is more affordable but less durable in corrosive conditions.

2mm SUS 304 vs 430: 2mm SUS 304 is austenitic and non-magnetic with excellent formability, while 2mm SUS 430 is ferritic, magnetic, and offers good resistance in less demanding settings but lower overall corrosion performance.

Gangsteel’s nickel alloy steel plates provide alternatives for extreme uses.
