Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Is this 304 stainless steel coil suitable for high-temperature exhaust systems?
A: Yes, 304 stainless steel can handle continuous service temperatures up to 925°C, making it ideal for automotive exhaust components like mufflers and pipes. -
Q: What is the difference between 304 and 409 grades for exhaust?
A: 409 is a ferritic stainless steel with lower cost and good oxidation resistance, but 304 offers better corrosion resistance and formability. Our coil is 304 but can be used as a higher-performance alternative to 409 in many exhaust applications. -
Q: Can you provide coils with a thickness of 1.2mm or 1.5mm?
A: Absolutely. We offer thicknesses from 0.8mm to 2.0mm, and we can also produce non-standard thicknesses upon request with a minimum order quantity. -
Q: What surface finishes are available?
A: We offer 2B (bright annealed), BA (bright annealed with mirror-like finish), and No.1 (hot rolled, matte). For exhaust systems, 2B is commonly used for good appearance and weldability. -
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we can provide free samples (you pay shipping) for quality evaluation. Please contact our sales team with your requirements. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for this product?
A: For standard specifications, lead time is 15-20 days after order confirmation. For custom sizes, it may extend to 25-30 days. -
Q: How do you ensure the quality of the coil?
A: We follow ISO9001 quality management system. Each coil is tested for chemical composition, mechanical properties, surface condition, and dimensional tolerance. We provide mill test certificates with every shipment. -
Q: Do you export to my country? What payment terms do you accept?
A: We export to all major regions including North America, Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Common payment terms are T/T (30% deposit, balance before shipment) or L/C at sight. We can discuss flexible terms for long-term partners.
