- ASTM A269 Certified
- 73,200 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance & Weldability
304 stainless steel is the most common austenitic grade, containing 18% chromium and 8% nickel for exceptional corrosion resistance. This square tubing is produced to ASTM A269 standards and delivered in an annealed condition, making it non-magnetic and highly formable. Its combination of weldability, toughness, and strength makes it a reliable choice for diverse structural and decorative projects where environmental exposure is a concern.
As a medium-sized structural tube, the 2-inch square profile with a heavy 0.250" wall is ideal for fabricating robust handrails, equipment frames, support posts for machinery, and architectural accents where a clean, modern look and high structural integrity are required. It provides a significant strength-to-weight ratio for demanding applications.
