What are the fundamental differences between 201 and 304 stainless steel railings


What are the essential differences between 201 and 304?

01 The characteristics are different.

201 stainless steel has certain acid and alkali resistance, high density, smooth surface without bubbles or pinholes, etc.

304 stainless steel has good processing performance and high toughness.

02 The prices are different.

304 is of better quality but more expensive.

The quality of 201 is slightly worse than that of 304, and its price is relatively cheaper.

03 The corrosion resistance is different.

The corrosion resistance of 201 is very poor, so the price is much lower. Also, 201 contains less nickel, so its price is lower than that of 304, and thus its corrosion resistance is not as good as that of 304.

04 The compositions are different.

201 has a higher manganese content, with a very shiny surface that has a dark shine. A higher manganese content makes it prone to rust.

304 contains more chromium, with a matte surface and no rust. Comparing the two, we can see the differences.
