| Type of SS 304 Channel | Description | Common Applications |
|---|---|---|
| SS 304 C Channel | C-shaped section with uniform thickness and straight flanges; offers high load-bearing strength and easy installation. | Construction structures, equipment frames, support systems |
| SS 304 U Channel | U-shaped profile providing excellent rigidity and mechanical stability. | Structural assemblies, machinery frames, conveyors |
| SS 304 Equal Channel | Equal flange sizes for uniform strength and balanced support. | Heavy-duty fabrication, building structures, general engineering |
| SS 304 Unequal Channel | Unequal flange sizes for specialized load or space requirements. | Shipbuilding, mechanical supports, construction frameworks |
| Custom Fabricated SS 304 Channel | Made to order as per client drawings or project needs with custom lengths, shapes, and finishes. | Food processing, chemical plants, architectural designs |
| Type of Corrosion | Performance Characteristics |
|---|---|
| Atmospheric Corrosion | Excellent resistance to atmospheric and environmental exposure; ideal for outdoor structures and industrial sites. |
| Chemical Corrosion | Withstands exposure to acids, alkalis, and chemical vapors found in processing plants. |
| Oxidation Resistance | Performs well at temperatures up to 870°C in intermittent service and 925°C in continuous service. |
| Pitting and Crevice Corrosion | The chromium content (18–20%) provides a protective passive layer, reducing risk of pitting in chloride environments. |
| Intergranular Corrosion | Controlled carbon content (≤ 0.08%) minimizes carbide precipitation, maintaining resistance during welding and fabrication. |
