What You Can Expect
- Old and New Designations on the Certificate: 06Cr19Ni10 = former designation 0Cr18Ni9 = ASTM 304. All three appear together, so customs and design teams have nothing to cross-check.
- Thickness 0.3–60 mm, width up to 2000 mm; cold-rolled 2B / BA, hot-rolled No.1, and HL / 8K / embossed finishes for surface-critical sheet.
- Certificates can be issued to GB/T or EN 10204 3.1, and we arrange pre-shipment third-party inspection (SGS / BV).
FAQ
Chemically equivalent and interchangeable. The difference lies in the acceptance criteria: GB/T 3280 versus ASTM A240. We show both designations on the certificate so your shipment is not held up at customs or drawing review.
We apply the stricter value for each element (usually carbon content and mechanical properties) and state both standard numbers on the certificate, so a single shipment clears both markets.
