Stainless steel type 304 is a general purpose alloy, very durable and easy to maintain in exterior and interior applications. Available in a host of finishes, the most typical are satin, mirror polished, or non-directional. In environments high in salt air concentration, industrial pollutants, or acid rain, alloy type 316 is recommended to inhibit corrosion and pitting. Highly durable outdoor protective coatings are available and recommended.

Stainless steel is generally assumed to be unstainable. This is not necessarily true in certain exterior applications, where visible staining may occur as a result of rain, dirt, carbon leaching, diesel fumes, and other elements. Solid cut dimensional letters and logo’s are automatically passivated when placed in exterior applications. Discuss Steel Art’s optional treatments with your Project Manager.
