About Stainless Steel 384 Washer
384 is a stainless steel that has lower work-hardening char- acteristics than Type 305. It is in the 18-8 family of stainless steels and is included in most AN and MS specifications. 316 stainless steel has the highest degree of corrosion resistance of the commonly- used 18-8 stainless steels.Durability and Corrosion ResistanceMade from grade 384 austenitic stainless steel, these washers offer outstanding corrosion resistance and can tolerate harsh environments and high temperatures up to 870C. This makes them highly suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, especially in demanding industrial and construction sectors where longevity and reliability are crucial.
Precision Manufacturing and SafetyManufactured through cold punching and machining, each washer features a deburred, smooth edge to enhance safety during handling and installation. Their adherence to DIN 125 and ISO 7089 standards ensures dimensional accuracy and a perfect fit, while the surface is kept clean and bright polished for effective performance and an aesthetic finish.
FAQ's of Stainless Steel 384 Washer:
Q: How are Stainless Steel 384 Washers manufactured?
A: These washers are produced using a cold punching and machining process, followed by deburring to ensure smooth, safe edges. This method guarantees uniform dimensions and a high-quality finish.
Q: What are the main benefits of using Stainless Steel 384 Washers?
A: The primary benefits include excellent corrosion and heat resistance, high tensile strength, and safety features like deburred edges. They are also RoHS compliant, recyclable, and manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility.
Q: Where are these washers commonly used?
A: Stainless Steel 384 Washers are typically used in machinery, construction, electrical systems, and other fastening applications that demand reliable, corrosion-resistant components.
Q: When should I choose a non-magnetic washer like this?
A: Select a non-magnetic washer-such as the Stainless Steel 384 Washer in its annealed condition-when working in environments where interference with sensitive electronic equipment must be minimized.
Q: What is the process for obtaining custom sizes?
A: Custom sizes are available upon request. Simply share the required dimensions and application details with the supplier or manufacturer to receive tailored washers.
Q: How can I be sure these washers meet international standards?
A: These washers are manufactured according to ASTM A240/ASME SA240 and DIN 125 / ISO 7089 standards, with ISO 9001:2015 certification ensuring stringent quality management.
Q: What advantages does the bright polished or matte finish provide?
A: The choice of a bright polished or matte finish offers both practical and aesthetic benefits-enhancing corrosion resistance, simplifying cleaning, and providing a professional appearance to assemblies.
