Stainless Steel 304/304L/304H CNC Component

Stainless steel 304, 304L, and 304H are three different grades of stainless steel that are commonly used in the production of CNC components. Each grade has its own unique properties and characteristics that make it suitable for different applications.

UNS S30400 is the most widely used grade of stainless steel and is known for its excellent corrosion resistance and strength. It is a versatile grade that can be used in a variety of applications, including food processing equipment, kitchen appliances, and surgical instruments. It is also commonly used in the production of CNC components due to its strength and durability.

UNS S30403 is a low-carbon version of 304 and is known for its improved weldability and formability. It is commonly used in the production of CNC components that require welding or bending, such as pipes and tubing. It is also used in the production of pressure vessels and boilers.

UNS S30403 is a high-carbon version of 304 and is known for its increased strength and hardness. It is commonly used in the production of CNC components that require high strength, such as valves and fittings. It is also used in the production of heat exchangers and other high-temperature applications.

All three grades of stainless steel 304, 304L, and 304H are austenitic stainless steels and are known for their excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and durability. They are also non-magnetic and have a low coefficient of thermal expansion. This makes them ideal for use in CNC components that require precise measurements and tight tolerances.

In terms of machinability, all three grades of DIN 1.4301, 1.4306/1.4307, and 1.4301 are relatively easy to machine and can be machined using standard tooling. They are also easy to polish and can be finished to a high level of shine and smoothness.
