FAQ

What makes 904L a "super" stainless steel?

904L is a super austenitic stainless steel containing significantly higher amounts of Nickel, Molybdenum, and Copper compared to 316L, giving it outstanding resistance to reducing acids and chloride pitting.

What industries use 904L stainless steel coils?

It is widely used in sulfuric acid production, seawater desalination plants in the Middle East, oil and gas processing in Asia, and pollution control equipment in Europe.

How does 904L compare to duplex stainless steel coils?

While Duplex 2205 Steel Coil offers higher mechanical strength, 904L provides superior resistance to strong mineral acids (like sulfuric acid) and general pitting corrosion.

Is 904L stainless steel coil weldable?

Yes. Proper welding techniques maintain corrosion resistance.

Do you support project-based supply for 904L coils?

Yes. We provide custom slitting, thickness options, full MTC documentation, and complete cooperation with third-party inspections (SGS/BV) for international project requirements.
