SUS304 — ASTM Equivalent

Holding a datasheet that specifies SUS304 (JIS)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.

What is the ASTM equivalent of SUS304?

SUS304 is a JIS designation corresponding to ASTM A182 F304 (304 Stainless Steel (Forged F304)) for industrial valve service. The full grade data is below - equivalence is by nominal chemistry and mechanical class, so confirm composition and heat-treat condition against the governing standard before substituting in critical service.

A182 F304

Stainless Steel

304 Stainless Steel (Forged F304) - forged form.

Service temperature-196°C to +538°C

Nominal compositionC ≤ 0.08%, Mn ≤ 2.00%, Si ≤ 1.00%, Cr 18.00–20.00%, Ni 8.00–11.00%, P ≤ 0.045%, S ≤ 0.030%

Typical service: Food and beverage processing - dairy, beverage, food plants (EHEDG/3-A hygiene compliance); Pharmaceutical utility water - purified water, WFI distribution loops; Mild chemical service - dilute acids, alkalis below corrosion thresholds
