JIS G4305 SUS329J3L Steel Plate | 329J3L Stainless Steel
What is JIS G4305 SUS329J3L Steel Plate?
As a professional stainless steel supplier and China Mill-Direct Exporter, SHH STEEL is pleased to present JIS G4305 SUS329J3L Steel Plate, also known as 329J3L stainless steel.
JIS G4305 SUS329J3L is a duplex stainless steel (austenitic-ferritic) under the Japanese standard for cold-rolled stainless steel plates, sheets and strips. It features a balanced microstructure of approximately 50% austenite and 50% ferrite, delivering nearly twice the yield strength of standard austenitic grades such as 304 or 316, together with outstanding resistance to stress corrosion cracking, pitting and crevice corrosion. SUS329J3L stainless steel is widely recognized as the Japanese equivalent of the popular 2205 duplex grade and is extensively used in chemical processing, oil & gas, marine and desalination applications. SHH STEEL supplies high-quality JIS G4305 SUS329J3L as Mill Direct Supply from leading Chinese stainless steel mills.
