Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
We strongly recommend Grade 304. While Grade 201 is cheaper, its lower nickel content makes it susceptible to pitting corrosion when exposed to sunlight and outdoor humidity. Grade 304 offers a much better long-term investment.
Yes. Our Grade 304 tubes possess high ductility, making them suitable for professional bending machines to create spiral staircases or curved roof structures without cracking or surface wrinkling.
