What's the Difference between Stainless Steel 201 and 304 for Filtration

Are you looking for the right stainless steel for your filtration needs? The choice between stainless steel 201 and 304 can make all the difference. Let's take a closer look at the key differences between these two materials.
 
At Hebei Maishi, we offer high-quality stainless steel wire mesh for a wide range of filtration applications. While stainless steel 201 and 304 may look similar, their composition and performance vary significantly.
 
SS201 has a high manganese content, which gives it a dark, bright surface. In contrast, SS304 contains more chromium and has a matte surface that is not as prone to rust.
 
Another key difference is the presence of nickel. SS201 has a lower nickel content than SS304, which gives SS304 excellent corrosion resistance.
 
Additionally, the hardness of SS201 is greater, but its toughness is not as good as SS304. This makes SS304 a better choice for applications that require durability and strength.
 
Finally, in outdoor environments, SS304 can last up to 3-4 years without rusting, while SS201 can begin to rust in as little as 6 months.
 
Above is what we introduce about the difference between stainless steel 201 and 304. At Hebei Maishi, we recommend using SS304 for filtration applications that require corrosion resistance and durability. Trust us for all your filtration needs.
