- 304
- This grade of stainless steel is the most widely used grades for laboratory use. This versatile grade is great for many different applications due to its resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and general wear and tear. Type 304 is easy to fabricate and clean, enabling users to rest assured that their working environments stay contaminant-free.
- 316
- Stainless steel of this grade can be used as a more heavy-duty alternative to 304. Type 316 is superior in its ability to resist corrosion and chemical damage, making it a go-to for demanding laboratory applications. While 316 tends to cost more up-front, it will serve as a long-term investment and will need to be repaired and replaced far less than its alternatives.
