Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Strip: The cold rolling process is to continuously roll and stretch the hot rolled stainless steel master coil through a cold rolling mill to obtain the desired thin strip. Cold rolled stainless steel strip has high flatness and surface quality and is widely used in various industries, such as automotive, electronics, construction, etc.
Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Strip: The hot rolling process is made by heating the stainless steel master coil to a high temperature and then rolling and stretching it. Hot rolled stainless steel strip has high strength and plasticity and is suitable for applications that require higher strength and wear resistance, such as automotive parts, machinery and equipment, etc.
Precision Strip: Precision strip is a stainless steel strip manufactured through a special processing process that provides higher precision and better dimensional control. Precision strips are typically used in applications that require highly accurate dimensions, such as electronic components, medical devices, optical instruments, etc.
These stainless steel strips are categorized by production processes to meet the needs of different industries and applications, and stainless steel strip suppliers will provide the appropriate products according to customer requirements.
Ferritic Stainless Steel Strip: mainly composed of iron, chromium, nickel and other elements, with a high chromium content, usually more than 10.5%. Common ferritic stainless steel strip Austenitic, Ferritic and Martensitic stainless steel strip.
Austenitic Stainless Steel Strip: Composed of iron, chromium, nickel and other elements, it has high corrosion and heat resistance. Common austenitic stainless steel strips are 304, 316, etc.
Ferritic-Austenitic Stainless Steel Strip: Composed of iron, chromium, nickel and a small amount of molybdenum and other elements, with high corrosion resistance and heat resistance, suitable for some special environments. The common ferritic-austenitic stainless steel strip is Duplex (duplex) stainless steel strip.
Martensitic Stainless Steel Strip: Composed of iron, chromium and higher carbon content, it has high strength and hardness and is suitable for some applications where strength and wear resistance are required. Common martensitic stainless steel strips are 410, 420, etc.
The different material compositions determine the characteristics and application areas of stainless steel strips. Stainless steel strip suppliers will provide stainless steel belts with the appropriate material composition according to customer requirements.
Bright Surface: Also known as mirror finish or polished surface, this treatment involves a series of mechanical polishing and buffing processes to create a highly reflective and smooth surface. It provides an attractive and decorative appearance.
Abrasive Surface: This treatment involves using abrasive materials or processes to create a textured or matte finish on the surface of the stainless steel strip. It can be achieved through methods such as sandblasting, grinding, or etching, and it offers enhanced resistance to scratches and fingerprints.
Brushed Surface: Also referred to as satin finish, this treatment involves brushing the surface of the stainless steel strip with abrasive materials in a unidirectional pattern. It creates a distinctive linear or circular grain texture, giving the material a refined and elegant look.
