FAQ
Q1: How does 316L differ from 304 stainless steel bars?
A: 316L adds 2–3% molybdenum for superior chloride resistance (ideal for marine/chemical use), while 304 is cost-effective for general applications.
Q2: What machining parameters prevent work hardening?
A: Use carbide tools with cutting speeds ≤100 m/min and coolant flow ≥5 L/min for Grades 304/316L.
Q3: Are bars certified for pharmaceutical equipment?
Full compliance includes:
- FDA 21 CFR 177.2600
- EU 10/2011
- ISO 13485 (Medical Devices)
Q4: What’s the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Standard stock: 1 ton MOQ.
