2B surface 201 stainless steel sheet to ASTM A240 is not hardened by heat treatment and is annealed at 1850-1950°F (1010-1066°C), followed by water quenching or rapid air cooling.
2B surface A240 201 stainless steel sheet is used to produce a range of household appliances, including sinks, cooking utensils, washing machines, windows, and doors. It is also used in automotive trim, decorative architecture, railway cars, trailers, and clamps. 201 ss sheet is not recommended for structural outdoor applications because of its susceptibility to pitting and crevice corrosion.
