Types of Food Grade Steel
- 304 Stainless Steel: A type of stainless steel known for its rust and corrosion resistance, ease of cleaning, and suitability for most food processing environments.
- 316 Stainless Steel: Another grade of stainless steel, grade 316, offers enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly in aggressive environments with high acidity or chloride content.
- 430 Stainless Steel: commonly used in less demanding food handling and processing applications, easy to clean.
- Alloy 20: Known for its resistance to sulfuric acid and other aggressive chemicals, often used in specialized food processing equipment.
- Duplex Stainless Steels (e.g., 2205): Combine the benefits of austenitic and ferritic stainless steels, offering high strength and resistance to stress cracking.
- Nitronic 50: Offers high strength and excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for applications requiring both strength and longevity in food processing.
Applications
What are the specific alloy compositions of food-grade stainless steel?
