What's the difference between 430 and 304?

430 is a ferritic stainless steel, 430 16Cr as a representative of ferritic steel, thermal expansion rate, formability and oxidation resistance. Heat resistant appliances, burners, household appliances, Class 2 tableware, kitchen sink, external decorative materials, bolts, nuts, CD rods, screens.

304 is austenitic stainless steel, 304 18Cr-8Ni as a widely used steel, has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties; Stamping, bending and other hot processing good, no heat treatment hardening phenomenon (non-magnetic, use temperature -196℃~800℃). Household goods (Class 1 and 2 tableware, cabinets, indoor pipelines, water heaters, boilers, bathtubs), auto parts (windshield wipers, mufflers, molding products), medical equipment, building materials, chemicals, food industry, agriculture, Marine parts.
