Sahil Metals caters to a range of sectors, including construction, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and marine, delivering trustworthy stainless steel products designed for long-lasting performance in diverse conditions.
The Stainless Steel 304L Flat Bar is a low-carbon variant of 304 stainless steel, containing 18–20% chromium, 8–12% nickel, and a maximum carbon content of 0.03%. This alloy enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion post-welding while maintaining solid mechanical properties. It boasts a tensile strength of about 485 MPa, a yield strength of 170 MPa, and an elongation of roughly 40%. The blend of strength, corrosion resistance, and formability makes it an excellent choice for structural fabrication, particularly in applications where welding is necessary without sacrificing corrosion performance.
