Where this product is used
The jobs this form most often goes into:
Commercial Kitchen Fabrication
In a commercial kitchen the surface gets wet and washed; 430 is not suitable for wet areas or food contact, so use 304 (Cr 17.5–19.5% · Ni 8.0–10.5%). Tops are folded from sheet, legs and frames made from 15×15–80×80 mm profile, shelf supports from Ø16–76.1 mm tube. Send the grade and size and we'll cut it to length.
Typical grade: AISI 304 / EN 1.4301

Food and Beverage Plants
Product-contact lines are washed often; the general answer is 304 (Cr 17.5–19.5% · Ni 8.0–10.5%). For salty or acidic cleaning, 316 (Mo 2.0–2.5%). Transfer lines are made from Ø16–76.1 mm tube, platform and stair frames from 15×15–80×80 mm profile, tank shells from sheet. Send the grade and size and we'll cut it and ship.

Railings and Architectural Work
Outdoors, a railing is exposed to rain and damp; 430 is not suitable outdoors. 304 for general outdoor work, 316 (Mo 2.0–2.5%) on the coast and in chlorinated air. Handrails are made from Ø16–76.1 mm round tube, uprights from 15×15–80×80 mm profile. Send the environment and the size and we'll pick the grade together.

Wet Areas and Drainage
430 is not used on permanently wet floors; wet areas are outside its range. Channel bodies are folded from 304 sheet (Cr 17.5–19.5% · Ni 8.0–10.5%); where the water is chlorinated or salty, 316. Gratings and supports are made from 15×15–80×80 mm profile, drain lines from Ø16–76.1 mm tube. Send the grade and size.

Automotive and Transport
Trailers and bodies are exposed to road salt and damp; 430 is not suitable outdoors. 304 for frames and fittings, 316 (Mo 2.0–2.5%) on salted roads and coastal routes. Body frames are made from 15×15–80×80 mm profile, inner and outer cladding from sheet. The listed profiles have a wall thickness of 0.5–1.5 mm; let's check any load-bearing spot together.

Machinery and Industrial Fabrication
For machine housings in dry interiors, 430 (Cr 16.0–18.0%) is suitable; where there is washdown or damp, use 304. Covers and panels are folded from sheet, frames made from 15×15–80×80 mm profile, fluid lines run in Ø16–76.1 mm tube. Choose 304 for welded frames: 430 welds less well than 304. Send the grade, size and quantity.
