What makes stainless steel so durable?

Stainless steel is produced by melting iron ore and carbon in a furnace. Then, it’s mixed with different types of metal alloys to achieve the desired properties for the end product. We all know stainless steel in general doesn’t rust in most applications. But additionally, its resistant to corrosion from exposure to harsh chemicals, acids, and caustic materials. And, its a very tough, hard metal. These qualities make stainless steel an ideal material for identification tags.

Do you offer different grades of stainless steel?

Inland products offers our customers the choice of two different stainless steel grades. Each grade uses a different mixture of alloys that lend themselves to differing properties and capabilities.

Firstly is Type 430. It’s the least expensive and most commonly used. This is because, for most applications, its as good as any other grade of stainless steel. It’s corrosion-resistant in many applications, is very strong and heat resistant. But, it lacks the very high corrosion resistance that better grades possess. Type 430 is a magnetic steel, meaning a magnet will stick to it, as it will to regular steel. This is because it has fewer alloys and more iron ore in it. This is unlike the better grades that have a higher alloy content with less iron ore. So, as a result, they’re both non-magnetic.

Next, we offer is Type 304. It’s a bit more expensive than Type 430. This is not only because we have to pay more for the material from our supplier, but because its a harder material. And, it’s more difficult and slower for us to process. Tooling is used in cutting, punching, blanking, shearing or rotary engraving stainless steel. This tooling, when used to process Type 304 stainless steel, takes more of a beating. So, it needs to be sharpened and/or replaced more often. This ads significantly to our processing cost. However, Type 304 possesses better corrosion resistance than Type 430 and is non-magnetic.
