Stainless Steel 904L Plates Manufacturer & Supplier
The USA Piping Solution has the best SS 904L Plates that is a high performance low-carbon austenitic stainless steel that is praised by its high corrosion resistance. This has been made possible by the high alloyed composition of the Stainless Steel 904L Plates that has large amounts of nickel, chromium, molybdenum and copper. This 904l stainless steel plate is specifically made to resist highly aggressive environments and has excellent resistance to dilute Sulphuric acid and good resistance against pitting, crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and intercrystalline corrosion. This high level of robustness of the 904l plate is further promoted by the low carbon nature of the material.
Some international standards are used to define this specialized grade, such as UNS N08904 (UNS S08904), EN 1.4539 (X1NiCrMoCu25-20-5) and AISI 904L. It has a stable fully austenitic structure and it is less susceptible to the formation of the harmful sigma phase than other high-molybdenum grades. The very good anti-magnetic property of the 904l plate is an important technical characteristic that makes it suitable in some special components. Each 904l stainless steel plate is of the highest quality.
Although the corrosion behaviour of the SS 904L Plate is the best, it is necessary to mention that it is not a high-strength steel. The 904l plate is an expensive material to machine and is relatively expensive because its composition is highly alloyed. Nonetheless, it is difficult to overestimate this initial investment by the fact that the material has unmatched longevity in critical use when it comes to long-term durability. USA Piping Solution Stainless Steel 904L plates are essential in situations that cost more to fail, and corrosion is critical, such as the Petrochemical and Gas Production, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Plants, Paper Mills, Treatment Plants, harsh Marine Environments, and specialized in the Luxury Watch Industry. We have the complete selection of sizes of SS 904L Plates.
