- 304 Stainless Steel Construction
- ASTM A269 Certified
- 73,200 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance & Weldability
Type 304 is the most versatile austenitic stainless steel, valued for its chromium-nickel content that provides robust corrosion resistance in various environments. As tubing, it combines excellent formability and weldability, conforming to ASTM A269. This grade is non-magnetic in its annealed condition and cannot be hardened by heat treatment, making it a reliable choice for fabricated assemblies requiring durability and a clean appearance.
The 3-inch outside diameter classifies this as a medium-sized tube, perfectly suited for applications like architectural handrails, equipment frames, roll cages, and structural supports where a balance of significant strength and manageable weight is crucial. Its size is substantial enough for load-bearing roles.
