SAE 304 stainless steel in acidic applications, it is commonly replaced by 316 stainless steel. 304 stainless steel is used for a variety of household and industrial applications such as food handling and processing equipment, screws, machinery parts, and car headers. 304 stainless steel is also used in the architectural field for exterior accents such as water and fire features. It is also a common coil material for vaporizers. They all possess the same nominal chromium and nickel contents and thus possess the same corrosion resistance, ease of fabrication and weldability. The carbon content of 304H (UNS S30409) is restricted to 0.04-0.10%, which provides
Stainless steel fiber industrial fabrics. For additional variety, stainless steel yarns are twisted with other fibers such as wool, nylon, cotton, and synthetic blends to produce yarns which add novelty effects to the end cloth. Stainless steel and other metal fibers are used in communication lines such as telephone lines and cable television lines. Stainless steel fibers are also used in carpets. They are dispersed throughout the carpet with other fibers so they are not detected. The presence of the fibers helps to conduct electricity so that the static shock is reduced. These types of carpets are often used in computer-use areas where
