201 Stainless Steel Strip

What is 201 stainless steel strip?

201 stainless steel is a manganese-nickel alloy, often regarded as a cost-effective alternative to the more expensive 304 stainless steel. The 201 stainless steel strip supplied by GNEE is an economical austenitic stainless steel (equivalent to JIS SUS 201 / ASTM A666 / GB 1220 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N), available with standard surface finishes including 2B, BA, No.4, and HL. It is offered in thicknesses ranging from 0.3–3.0 mm and widths of 1000–1500 mm.

 

GNEE strictly adheres to the ASTM A666 standard in production and provides original factory warranties along with third-party inspection reports (including chemical composition analysis, mechanical property testing, and surface roughness verification). This ensures that every coil or sheet of 201 stainless steel strip delivers stable dimensional accuracy (thickness tolerance ±0.05 mm, width tolerance ±2 mm), consistent surface quality, and reliable process suitability.

 

201 stainless steel strips are widely used in cost-sensitive applications such as kitchenware and tableware (e.g., sinks, trays), architectural decoration (e.g., curtain wall panels, handrails), home appliance casings (e.g., microwave oven and washing machine panels), and hardware components (e.g., hinges, guide rails).
