301 Stainless Steel Strip

301 Stainless Steel is an austenitic stainless steel capable of attaining very high strengths while maintaining ductility through cold working. Stainless Steel 301 can be used in mould goods. Also it can be quickly hardened by mechanical processing. It has good weldability. Its wear resistance and fatigue strength are better than that of 304 stainless steel. Compared with 304, its content of Cr and Ni is low. And it has magnetism after cold rolling.

301 is non-magnetic in the annealed condition and becomes increasingly magnetic with cold working. This chromium nickel stainless steel alloy provides high strength and good ductility when cold worked. 301 stainless steel is a modification of stainless steel grade 304 with lower chromium and nickel to increase the work hardening range. 301 steel exhibits corrosion resistance comparable to 304. In the cold worked and annealed condition,301 achieves its most optimal resistance to corrosion. It is preferable over 304 in the tempered condition because the higher enlongations (which are attainable at a given strength level) facilitate fabrication.
