2mm Satin Brushed Finish Stainless Steel Sheet Metal For Industrial And Architectural

2mm 430 Satin Brushed Finish Stainless Steel Sheet Metal is a cold-rolled stainless steel sheet supplied in 2.0mm thickness and 1219 × 2438mm standard size. It features a uniform satin-brushed surface that provides a clean, directional appearance while helping reduce the visibility of minor surface marks.

Grade 430 is a ferritic stainless steel with good corrosion resistance, formability and heat resistance for general industrial and architectural applications. The sheet can be supplied with PVC/PE protective film to help protect the brushed surface during handling, transportation and fabrication.

JUDE STEEL supplies 430 satin brushed stainless steel sheets to ASTM A240 / ASME SA240, with dimensional and surface inspection and EN 10204 3.1 MTC available for bulk industrial orders. Cut-to-size and other processing services can be provided according to project requirements.

The standard size for this 2mm 430 stainless steel sheet is 1219 × 2438 mm, approximately 48 × 96 inches. This fixed sheet size is commonly used for architectural panels, equipment covers, interior fabrication and other applications requiring a consistent sheet format.

With a 2.0mm thickness, the sheet provides a practical balance between rigidity and ease of fabrication. The satin brushed finish gives the surface a uniform directional grain and clean appearance, while protective film can be applied to reduce surface damage during handling and transportation.

430 satin brushed stainless steel sheet is a cold-rolled ferritic stainless steel sheet with a mechanically brushed surface. Grade 430 contains chromium as its main alloying element and is commonly selected for applications requiring a clean appearance, moderate corrosion resistance and good dimensional stability.

The satin brushed finish is produced by controlled abrasive treatment of the stainless steel surface, creating a fine, uniform grain pattern with a softer, low-gloss appearance than a highly polished surface. The directional texture also helps make minor handling marks less noticeable.

For this product, the sheet is supplied in 2.0mm thickness and 1219 × 2438mm standard size. It is manufactured to ASTM A240 / ASME SA240 and can be used for architectural panels, interior components, equipment covers, decorative fabrication and general industrial applications.

Unlike austenitic grades such as 304, 430 stainless steel is magnetic and contains little to no intentional nickel addition. It is often considered when the application does not require the higher corrosion resistance of 304 but still needs a stainless steel surface with a consistent brushed appearance.

The satin brushed finish is a mechanically produced surface texture with fine, uniform lines running in a consistent direction. Abrasive belts or brushes are used to create the grain after the stainless steel sheet has been cold rolled and prepared for finishing.

Compared with a bright or highly polished surface, satin brushing produces a softer, low-gloss appearance and gives the sheet a more uniform visual texture. Minor handling marks are generally less noticeable on the directional grain, although the finish should still be protected during transportation and fabrication.

For this 2mm 430 satin brushed stainless steel sheet, the surface is supplied with a consistent brushed appearance suitable for architectural panels, interior components, equipment covers and decorative metal fabrication.

The chemical composition of 430 stainless steel (UNS S43000) is controlled primarily by chromium, with a low carbon content typical of this ferritic stainless steel grade. The composition provides the corrosion resistance, magnetic properties and general forming characteristics associated with Grade 430.

The mechanical properties of 430 stainless steel sheet depend on the material condition and applicable specification. For cold-rolled sheet supplied to ASTM A240 / ASME SA240, the following values are commonly used for Grade 430:

The physical properties of 430 stainless steel are typical of a ferritic stainless steel and remain useful for applications requiring moderate corrosion resistance, heat resistance and magnetic response.

Both 430 and 304 stainless steel sheets are widely used, but they have different alloy compositions and are better suited to different service conditions. Grade 430 is a ferritic, magnetic stainless steel, while 304 is an austenitic grade with higher nickel content and generally better corrosion resistance.

• Architectural panels – wall panels, column covers, elevator interiors and decorative cladding.
• Interior decoration – doors, partitions, ceiling panels and interior trim.
• Equipment covers and panels – housings, protective covers and machine panels.
• Kitchen and appliance components – cabinet panels, appliance surfaces and decorative components.
• Commercial interiors – retail fixtures, counters, display panels and furniture components.
• Decorative metal fabrication – trims, frames, backsplashes and other brushed stainless steel components.
• Industrial fabrication – general-purpose panels and components where 430 stainless steel provides sufficient corrosion resistance.

Surface Protection

• PVC / PE protective film can be applied to the brushed surface to reduce scratches, scuff marks and handling damage.
• Protective film is suitable for storage, transportation, cutting and fabrication before final installation.
• The film can be selected according to the customer's processing and application requirements.
• Sheets should be handled with clean gloves and suitable lifting equipment to avoid surface contamination and mechanical damage.

Export Packaging

For bulk industrial orders, the 430 stainless steel sheets can be prepared with packaging suitable for containerized and long-distance transportation. Typical packaging includes:

• Protective film on the finished surface
• Interleaving or protective material between sheets where required
• Steel strapping to secure the sheet bundles
• Waterproof wrapping for protection against moisture during transportation
• Strong export pallets or wooden cases when required by the project
• Shipping marks and package identification according to customer requirements
