Priced affordably, stainless solutions by the firm enhance its portfolio with SS 201 bars, catering to manufacturing and architectural industries in the U.S.
Stainless Steel 201 is an austenitic steel with 16–18% chromium, 3.5–5.5% nickel, 6–8% manganese, and up to 0.15% carbon. It has a tensile strength of 550–750 MPa, yield strength 300–450 MPa, and elongation of 30–40%. The composition rich in manganese provides average resistance to corrosion and good formability. Though less corrosion-resistant than 304, SS 201 has economic benefits for general purposes.
