3cr13 Stainless Steel And 304 Stainless Steel Difference

3cr13 stainless steel and 304 stainless steel are different in chemical composition, physical properties, application scenarios and so on.

Chemical composition: 304 stainless steel carbon content of about 0.8%, chromium content of about 19%, nickel content of about 9%; The carbon content of 3cr13 stainless steel is about 20%, the chromium content is about 13% and the nickel content is less.

Physical properties: 304 stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties, has strong waterproof and acid resistance, good toughness, not easy to crack; 3cr13 stainless steel after heat treatment has higher hardness, good wear resistance, but slightly poor corrosion resistance.

Application scenario: 304 stainless steel is suitable for making equipment and parts requiring good comprehensive performance (corrosion resistance and formability), such as food equipment, chemical equipment, building decoration materials, etc. 3cr13 stainless steel is suitable for some parts with high mechanical properties and general corrosion resistance requirements, such as springs, turbine blades, tools and so on.
