BA surface Stainless Steel Sheet Price 201 304 316 2205 2507 310S 410 430 1mm Thick Stainless Steel Plate
The stainless steel plate has a smooth surface, high plasticity, toughness and mechanical strength, and is resistant to corrosion by acids, alkaline gases, solutions and other media. It is an alloy steel that does not rust easily, but not absolutely rust-free.
Stainless steel plate refers to a steel plate that is resistant to corrosion by weak media such as atmosphere, steam and water,while acid-resistant steel plate refers to a steel plate that is resistant to corrosion by chemically corrosive media such asacid, alkali, and salt.
