Priya Enterprise

Typical Form:
Offcuts, sheet scrap, coils, cut pieces

Properties:
Austenitic stainless steel with higher manganese and lower nickel
Offers lower corrosion resistance compared to 300 series stainless steel

General Characteristics:

Austenitic SS with higher Mn, lower Ni
Suitable for general structural applications

Use:
Feedstock for stainless steel mills, especially where 201 alloy is acceptable

Typical Form:
Shredded pieces, solid scrap, offcuts

Properties:
Most commonly used austenitic stainless steel
Contains approximately 18% chromium and 8–10% nickel
Provides excellent corrosion resistance

Use:
Melting into ingots or billets, further processed into flat and finished stainless products

Typical Form:
Similar scrap shapes to 304, generally heavier pieces from manufacturing waste

Properties:
Austenitic stainless steel with molybdenum addition for superior corrosion resistance
Typical composition:

• Chromium: 16–18%

• Nickel: 10–14%

• Molybdenum: 2–3%
  Especially resistant in chloride and marine environments

Use:
Melting into higher-value stainless alloys for marine, chemical, and industrial equipment

Typical Form:
Turnings, pipe cuttings, shaft cuttings, plate scrap

Properties:
Ferritic / martensitic stainless steel
Chromium content: 11.5–13.5%
Moderate corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength
Magnetic in nature

Use:
Feedstock for magnetic stainless steel products and heat-treated components
