What is ASTM a580?
This specification covers stainless steel wire, except the free-machining types. It includes round, square, octagon, hexagon, and shape wire in coils only for the more commonly used types of stainless steels for general corrosion resistance and high-temperature service.
What is the ASTM standard for stainless steel?
ASTM International Standard A484 is the standard specification for stainless steel bars, billets, and forgings. The spec covers wrought stainless steel bars, shapes, forgings, and billets or other semi-finished materials, excluding wire, for forging.

What is A240 steel?
Stainless steel grade A240 has a crystal structure that is ferritic, and hence this material is ferromagnetic in soft annealed condition. The high chromium content in this steel helps in replacing standard austenitic grades in certain applications.
What is A240 316L?
In ASTM A240, type 316 and 316L is a chromium nickel austenitic steel, Element molybdenum addition can enhances corrosion resistance of stainless steel, which is the main factor that 316/316l is more corrosion resistant than 304/304l.
