Stainless Steel Coils are one of the most sought after types of raw material in the construction and manufacturing industries. Thanks to their distinct mechanical and physical properties, stainless steel coils have been widely used in the production of kitchen appliances to industrial equipment. They are strong, resist corrosion, are light in weight and require low maintenance. Also, they are flexible and easily meet the requirements of a range of design criteria. Within the industry (especially manufacturing), numerous grades of stainless steel coils can be found, each with different properties and usability.

Stainless steel is notable for its corrosion resistance, and it is widely used for food handling and cutlery among many other applications.  Stainless steel does not readily corrode, rust or stain with water as ordinary steel does.  However, it is not fully stain-proof in low-oxygen, or high-salinity environments.  There are various grades and surface finishes of stainless steel to suit the environment the alloy must endure.

Stainless steel is used where both the properties of steel and corrosion resistance are required.  Its resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance, and familiar lustre make it an ideal material for many applications.

Stainless steel coils are not just the types of stainless steel materials, but instead they are the collection of hundreds of grades and types of stainless steels.Stainless steel coils are most popular variety of stainless steel materials in the world.There are over 40 categories of stainless steel coil grades available making it easy to choose the right one for countless applications and products.

Stainless Steel Coils Surface Finish

The finish of the stainless steel coils can be No.1, 2D, 2B, BA, No.4 Hairline, Mirror, etc.

2B – Cold rolled, heat treated, pickled, skin passes. The surface brightness and flatness of 2B is better than 2D. then through a special surface treatment to improve its mechanical properties,2B could nearly satisfy comprehensive uses.

2D – Same as above but not skin passed (Matt/Dull Finish).

BA – Bright annealed is a bright cold rolled highly reflective finish. Cold rolled, bright annealed and skin-passed, the product have excellent brightness and good reflexivity like mirror, kitchen apparatus,ornament etc.

No.1 Finish : Hot rolled annealed and descaled. Produces a dull grey finish with little reflectivity.

No.4 Finish : The most popular finish for kitchen appliances and work surfaces due to its smooth texture with little reflectivity.

Mirror Finish: No.8 is a mirror-finished surface with the highest reflectivity without abrasive grains. The stainless steel deep processing industry also calls as 8K plates. Generally, BA materials are used as raw materials for mirror finishing only through grinding and polishing. After mirror finishing, the surface is artistic, so it is mostly used in building entrance decoration and interior decoration.
