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
Braided stainless steel brake lines it is reasonable to ask why rubber brake hose is used at all, instead of always using braided stainless steel hose. The most typical reason is cost, but also use case. Braided stainless steel hose is typically more expensive than rubber. When the cost difference is extrapolated across hundreds or thousands of units, it is quite compelling to opt for the rubber option, especially when the use case exhibits that the operator will not need or want the additional capabilities offered by a brake system equipped with braided stainless steel brake lines. It thus stands to reason that braided stainless
