Is 304 Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Better Or 316 Stainless Steel Sink?

In daily life, stainless steel products can be seen everywhere, and because of its good characteristics, stainless steel is becoming more and more popular, such as the stainless steel kitchen sink used in our family. But some people will ask, is 304 stainless steel kitchen sink better or 316 stainless steel sink? Today, the editor will share with you what is the difference between the two.
304 stainless steel should be heard the most often in life. In fact, 304 and 316 are not very different from each other in appearance. The essential difference of 304 is the difference in composition, 304 stainless steel density is 7.93g/cm3, 316 stainless steel density is 8.03g/cm3. Both have the characteristics of acid resistance, alkali resistance, easy processing and high toughness. However, because 316 adds Ni, Cr, and Mo elements on the basis of 304, it has higher density, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance than 304. But for kitchen sink use, the general 304 stainless steel kitchen sink is already very good. The use of 316 stainless steel sink is more used in medical and other industrial fields, and in coastal areas, 316 material is better, because the ability to resist corrosion is stronger and it is not easy to rust.
