Stainless Steel Stockholder & Supplier

We carry a comprehensive range of stainless steel sheet in metric and imperial sizes depending on the grade of material.

These are stocked in a range of stainless steel sheet sizes and thicknesses and as square tubes, round tubes, round bars, angles, and flats. Unlike many suppliers and stockholders, we can supply many materials cut to size, not just full sheets or full-lengths.

If you do not see your grade here, please contact our sales team to see if we can source it for you.

What is Stainless Steel?

Steel is a carbon and iron alloy. Steels with at least 10.5 percent chromium, less than 1.2 percent carbon, and other alloying elements are known as stainless steels. This type of iron is mainly protected from rusting and has heat-resistant qualities as a result of the composition.

What are the properties?

Stainless steel has a number of attractive qualities that lead to its extensive use in the manufacturing of parts and components in a variety of industries.

  • Corrosion resistant
  • High tensile strength
  • Very durable
  • Temperature resistant
  • Easy formability and fabrication
  • Low-maintenance (long-lasting)
  • Attractive appearance
  • Environmentally friendly (recyclable)

Stainless Steel Classifications

Typically, there are 5 main classifications of stainless steel. Each is recognised by the alloying substances that impact their microstructure and are given names.

  • Ferritic steels or grade 400 stainless steel
  • Austenitic steels are divided into the 300 series and 200 subcategories
  • Martensitic steel or grade 400 stainless steel
  • Duplex (ferritic-austenitic) stainless steel or grade 2000 steel
  • Precipitation-Hardening (PH) 17-4 PH is also known as stainless steel grade 630.
