200 series stainless steel introduction

Chemical composition

Taking common 201 and 202 as an example, they generally contain chromium (Cr) 16.00%-18.00%, nickel (Ni) 3.50%-5.50%, manganese (Mn) content is relatively high, usually about 5.50%-10%, and also contain an appropriate amount of nitrogen. By increasing the content of manganese and nitrogen to partially replace nickel, it can reduce the cost while ensuring certain performance.

Performance characteristics

Corrosion resistance: It has certain corrosion resistance in a weak corrosion environment, but compared with 300 series stainless steel, its resistance to intergranular corrosion and point corrosion is significantly lower, and it is easy to rust in a corrosive environment such as high salt and high acid and alkali.
Mechanical properties: With good strength and wear resistance, the strength is higher than 300 series stainless steel, suitable for bearing heavy loads of structural parts.
Processing performance: The work hardening rate is high, the deformation force is required in the cold working process, and the surface finish after processing is relatively poor, but through the appropriate process adjustment can still be cold bending, stamping and other processing.
Magnetism: Usually non-magnetic or weakly magnetic, but may produce magnetism after cold working deformation.

Application field

Architectural decoration: can be used to make door and window frames, handrails, railings, decorative panels, etc., its cost is low, and the appearance is similar to 300 series stainless steel, which can meet the requirements of general architectural decoration.
Home appliance industry: often used in the manufacture of washing machines, refrigerators, microwave ovens and other home appliance equipment shell and liner, while ensuring a certain performance, can reduce production costs.
Tableware and kitchenware: some tableware, kitchen POTS, etc., will also use 200 series stainless steel, but it should be noted that its corrosion resistance is relatively weak, and long-term contact with highly corrosive substances should be avoided during use and maintenance.
Transportation: In the automotive, railway and transportation fields, it can be used to manufacture automotive interior parts, wipers, tire LIDS and other accessories, as well as some parts of railway vehicles.

Market situation

Due to fluctuations in nickel prices, when nickel prices are high, the output of 200 series stainless steel will increase significantly due to cost advantages. However, there are a large number of fake and shoddy 200 series stainless steel products on the market, whose composition does not meet the standards, corrosion resistance and other performance is not up to standard, which has brought great losses to consumers.
