Grade 201 stainless steel is a versatile and cost-effective option for interior applications where both functionality and aesthetics are important. This austenitic stainless steel offers a good balance between strength, formability, and moderate corrosion resistance, making it suitable for various indoor uses. Typically available in lengths up to 10-12 feet and widths up to 48 inches, it can be easily customized to fit different design requirements. The thickness of Grade 201 stainless steel ranges from 0.020 inches to 0.125 inches, accommodating a variety of applications from delicate decorative panels to more substantial structural elements. Coatings, if applied, usually range from 0.001 inches to 0.005 inches thick, providing an additional layer of protection or finish. The glossiness of the steel can vary from matte (less than 10 degrees) to high gloss (over 80 degrees), offering flexibility in achieving the desired visual effect. Surface protection measures, such as protective films or treatments, are often used to prevent damage during handling and installation, ensuring the material maintains its pristine condition. Grade 201 stainless steel is particularly well-suited for interior environments like kitchens, wall panels, and other decorative features, delivering a modern look while being more economical compared to higher grades like 304 or 316. Its ability to combine durability with aesthetic versatility makes it a practical choice for a range of interior design projects.
