What is the difference between 201 and 304 stainless steel for kitchen equipment ?

 The main material of kitchen equipment is stainless steel, and some low-quality products use poor-quality stainless steel to ensure that the product is low in price. Therefore, everyone should understand the difference of stainless steel to avoid cheating.

​

201 and 304 stainless steel are mainly used at present.

201 stainless steel product

201 stainless steel contains high manganese, and the surface is very bright with dark and bright, and high manganese content is easy to rust. 304 contains more chromium, the surface is matte and does not rust. Putting the two together makes a comparison. The most important thing is that the corrosion resistance is different. The corrosion resistance of 201 is very poor, so the price is much cheaper. Because 201 contains low nickel, the price is lower than that of 304, so the corrosion resistance is not as good as 304.
