201 stainless steel plate is mainly used for high-temperature applications, which require the material to have strong anti sensitization properties to prevent intergranular corrosion at lower temperatures. Applied to outdoor machines in the chemical, coal, and petroleum industries that require high resistance to grain boundary corrosion, as well as heat-resistant building materials and parts that are difficult to heat treat;
1 . Petroleum waste gas combustion pipeline;
2 . Engine exhaust pipe;
3 . Boiler shell, heat exchanger, heating furnace components;
4 . Silencing components for diesel engines;
5 . Boiler pressure vessel;
6 . Chemical transport vehicles;
7. Expansion joint;
8 . Spiral welded pipes for furnace pipelines and dryers;
201 stainless steel sheet chemical composition and technical property as below:
Standard | C max% | Si max | Mn | P max | S max | Cr | Ni | N max | tensile strength(MPa) | yield strength(MPa) | Elongation% |
201 | 0.15 | 1 | 5.5~7.5 | 0.06 | 0.03 | 16~18 | 3.5~5.5 | 0.25 | ≥515 | ≥275 | ≥40 |
| Property | Benefit |
| Cost Efficiency | Lower nickel content reduces raw material cost by 30–50% compared to 304, without sacrificing performance in dry or low-corrosion environments. |
| High Work Hardening Rate | Excellent for parts requiring strength after forming, bending, or drawing operations. |
| Good Formability | Easily shaped into complex geometries, ideal for brackets, clips, and housings. |
| Moderate Corrosion Resistance | Suitable for indoor machinery, clean-room equipment, and non-marine atmospheric exposure. |
| Magnetic Response | Slightly magnetic after cold working, beneficial for certain fixturing and separation applications. |
Q: Is 201 stainless steel strong enough for machinery parts, or should I use 304?
A: For indoor machinery, dry environments, and non-structural or lightly loaded components, 201 offers sufficient strength and durability at a significantly lower cost. If your parts will face continuous moisture, salt spray, or aggressive chemicals, 304 or 316 may be more appropriate. We can advise based on your specific operating environment.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: We have no strict MOQ. You can order a single prototype or thousands of units. Unit pricing decreases with volume due to optimized nesting and reduced setup time. Contact us for a tiered quotation.
Q: Do you offer secondary processing after laser cutting?
A: Yes. We provide deburring, tapping, countersinking, CNC bending, TIG/MIG welding, surface grinding, and assembly into sub-units. This allows you to receive finished or semi-finished components ready for direct integration.
