Characteristics
201 modification¡GLow-Ni Austenite steel type.
202 modification¡GLow-Ni Austenite, its corrosion resistance is between 304 and 201 modification.
304¡GGeneral-purpose steel grade because of its good corrosion resistance, thermal resistance and
           trength at slow-temperature. Excellent formability and excellent weldability, as well
304L¡GIt is a type of low-carbon 304 steel that has similar corrosion resistance with 304 steel in normal
             condition and more excellent weldability.
316¡GWith the addition of Mo in 304, 316 steel is superior in corrosion resistance compared to 304 grade,
           pitting resistance and high temperature strength.
316L¡GLow carbon 316 steel type. It has all the properties of 316 steel and has excellent inter-granular
             corrosion resistance
