AISI 304 Stainless Steel Coil

AISI 304 Stainless Steel Coil is a general-purpose austenitic stainless steel in continuous coiled strip form, combining the well-established corrosion resistance of the 18% chromium–10% nickel composition with the processing efficiency of a high-volume, uninterrupted supply format. With a tensile strength of 500–700 MPa, a yield strength of 190–240 MPa, and elongation of approximately 40%, it offers an excellent balance of mechanical performance and formability that makes it ideally suited to roll-forming, stamping, and progressive-die operations. Its face-centred cubic austenitic structure is essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition and work hardens predictably during cold deformation, enabling consistent dimensional control across high-throughput fabrication runs. AISI 304 coil is widely used in the manufacture of formed stainless components for chemical processing, food-contact equipment, automotive assemblies, and general industrial fabrication. In research and pilot production environments, it provides a reproducible, specification-controlled substrate for tribological testing, surface treatment evaluation, and forming-behaviour studies where consistent material properties across extended lengths are an experimental requirement.
