There are many stainless steel wire mesh manufacturers on the market now, generally to attract customers and reduce some costs. Reduce the price of the product and use 201 stainless steel wire instead of 304. It's hard to tell if you are not an expert in this area.
Maishi as China's top manufacturing team with 30 years of experience gives us the following experience:
The stainless steel wire mesh of 201 can not be called stainless steel, and its anti-corrosion ability is very poor, and it will be corroded soon. Seriously affect the use of customers.
201 contains manganese, which will rust in a long time in a humid or salty environment. 304 does not contain manganese, so it will not rust.
201 is not as good as 304 because of its relatively low nickel content.
201 is harder and more brittle than 304. 304 has good toughness. Experiment with a hard blade. After the surface of 201 is scratched, there will be obvious scratches, but the surface of 304 will not have obvious scratches.
The chemical formula of plutonium 201 is 1Cr17Mn6Ni5, and the chemical formula of 304 is 06Cr19Ni10; the main difference is nickel chromium, 201 is 17 chromium, 5 chromium nickel, and also contains 6 manganese, 304 is 19 chromium, 10 nickel.
201 and 304 colors, corrosion resistance, acid and alkali resistance are really very different.
When we choose, we need to brighten our eyes and choose according to our needs of anti-corrosion ability and materials!
