01The South Africa market
Who buys stainless steel in South Africa, and for what.
South Africa's demand comes from mining and minerals processing, automotive, food and wine, chemicals and construction. The country also produces stainless steel domestically.
Standards in South Africa
SANS national standards exist, and ASTM and EN are widely used on imported material. Mining and process work may follow client specifications.
02Choosing a grade for South Africa
Matching the grade to the environment in South Africa.
The environment
A dry inland plateau, a humid east coast around Durban, and a marine climate at the Cape. The same grade can last decades inland and corrode within years on the coast.
Which grade fits
Inland dry work can use 202 or 304; mining process, coastal and wine-industry service needs 316L, duplex or nickel alloy.
Where SS 202 fits
SS 202 suits dry interior use, kitchenware, furniture and decorative tube. For exposed or coastal service we recommend 304 or 316.
