Austenitic stainless steel plate comprises the most important class of the family of stainless steel plate because of its corrosion resistance, ease of fabrication, wide range of mechanical properties, and wide range of temperatures. Austenitic stainless steel plate is non-magnetic. When nickel is added to stainless steel in sufficient amounts, the crystal structure changes to "austenite." The basic composition of 300 series austenitic stainless steels is 18% chromium and 8% nickel. This enhances their corrosion resistance and modifies the structure from ferritic to austenitic. Austenitic grades are the most commonly used stainless steels, accounting for more than 70% of production, and they are not hardenable by heat treatment.
