According to the processing method, the stainless steel is often manufactured by either hot rolled stainless steel sheet or cold rolled stainless steel sheet. Let’s see them below.
It is made from slab by roughing mill and finishing mill at the recrystallization temperature of steel about 1,100° C – 1,300° C. By hot rolling and coiling, the coil will get a softer surface finish, free of any oxide layers and impurities.
It is often processed based on the hot rolled stainless steel sheet. The coil will go through several processes like hot rolling, acid pickling, and cold rolling at room temperature. It can be made into a variety of cross-sectional forms to meet the different needs.
Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Coil
Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Coil
Different stainless steel manufacturers in China will offer both hot rolled and cold rolled stainless steel. Below are more differences for your reference.
1. Making Method
The former is made at high temperatures, while the latter is processed at average temperatures. It often decides the grade of the steel used for the manufacturing process.
2. Surface Treatment
Cold rolled stainless steel coils with good surface quality, no oxidation scales, and various surface treatments available. After pickling, there are oxidation scales on hot rolled stainless steel coils, and the surface is grayish or dark brown. And the smoothness of cold rolled stainless coil is higher than that of hot-rolled coil.
3. Mechanical Property
The mechanical property of hot-rolled stainless steel is much lower than that of cold-rolled stainless steel. The cold rolling possesses higher hardness.
4. Price
Cold rolled SS coil has higher toughness and surface quality than hot rolled SS coil and higher price than hot rolled coil. But the price also depends on the quality of the product. Different suppliers will offer different prices. For example, Wanzhi Steel can often offer factory sales prices for large orders compared to other SS coil manufacturers.

SS304 Coils
Stainless steel is a material that has strong corrosion resistance, which means it does not easily rust. It is formed by adding anti-corrosion elements such as nickel to form a very thin, firm, and stable chromium-rich oxide protective film, preventing continuous infiltration and oxidation. However, it will rust in certain conditions – when exposed to damaging chemicals, saline, grease, moisture, or heat for an extended period. In addition, the greater the nickel content, the greater the possibility of rusting.
1. Electrochemical Corrosion
It occurs when the surface of stainless steel accumulates dust containing other metal elements or dissimilar metal particles. In humid air, the water between the attachment and the stainless steel connects the two into a micro-battery, which triggers an electrochemical reaction and damages the protective film. It is called electrochemical corrosion.
2. Chemical Corrosion
The stainless steel surface adheres to organic juices (such as vegetables, noodle soup, sputum, etc.). In the presence of water and oxygen, it constitutes an organic acid, and the organic acid corrodes the metal surface for a long time. Similarly, corrosion is caused when stainless steel’s surface adheres to acids, alkalis, and salts or is used in polluted air (such as the atmosphere with many sulfides, carbon oxide, and nitrogen oxide).
Stainless Steel Strips
SS Sheet with Film
1. Clean the stainless steel surface frequently to remove attachments and eliminate external factors that cause rust.
2. Paint a layer of titanium a layer of fingerprint-free oil or anticorrosive paintings on the surface to prevent the stainless steel from rusting.
3. Use suitable materials according to the use environment. For example, SS304 has excellent anti-corrosion ability in dry and clean atmospheres. While SS316 is more suitable for seaside areas, which can resist seawater corrosion.
4. By stainless steel products from reputable manufacturers, which can meet the corresponding national standards.
Pay more attention to its storage condition so as to extend the lifespan of the stainless steel. As an experienced stainless steel manufacturer in China, here are some useful tips for you:
1. It should be stored in a dry, ventilated, and non-polluting place.
2. Avoid exposure to outdoors or confined space with high temperature or wetting, as it is prone to oxidation under long-term humidity and high temperature.
3. Avoid storing the coils with corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis, as it will accelerate the corrosion of stainless coil.
4. The recommended storage temperature is 20℃±10, and the recommended humidity is 60%±10.
