304 BA Stainless Steel Strip with Precision Slitting and Smooth Surface
Shaanxi Shangyou Stainless Steel Co., Ltd. supplies BA stainless steel strip with a bright-annealed surface for appliance, trim, precision stamping and other appearance-sensitive components. The page focuses on 304 BA strip, while 316L and 430 BA options can be supplied when the requested grade, gauge and processing route are available.
| Parameter | Specification / Guidance |
|---|---|
| Primary Grade | 304 / UNS S30400 / EN 1.4301 |
| Other Options | 316L, 430 and other BA-capable grades by RFQ |

| Parameter | Specification / Guidance |
|---|---|
| Grade / UNS / EN | Primary page focus: 304 / UNS S30400 / EN 1.4301; 316L and 430 BA by RFQ |
| Applicable Standards | ASTM A240/A240M and ASTM A480/A480M as applicable; EN 10088-2. Surface designation and acceptance criteria should be agreed with the purchase order. |
| Inspection Documents | MTC / EN 10204 3.1 when specified; dimensional, surface and hardness reports; PMI available where technically appropriate. |
Bright annealed strip is processed to retain a smooth, bright surface after annealing in a controlled atmosphere. It is often selected for components where appearance and clean surface condition matter. BA should not be marketed as identical to mechanically mirror-polished 8K material; the visual result and processing route are different.
For appearance-critical parts, the RFQ should define acceptable scratches, handling marks, film requirement, surface side(s), visual direction if relevant and final forming method. A bright incoming strip can still be damaged by slitting, rewinding or transport if packing is not controlled.
Choose BA for bright smooth appearance or when the downstream process benefits from a clean bright surface. Choose 2B when a standard functional cold-rolled finish is sufficient. For decorative mirror requirements, specify the final reflectivity/roughness or polished finish rather than using BA and 8K interchangeably.
| Parameter | Specification / Guidance |
|---|---|
| Slitting / Cutting | Precision slitting, cut-to-width and rewinding according to grade, gauge and coil configuration. |
| Edge Processing | As-slit, deburred or conditioned edge where the requested dimensions and application allow. |
| Testing | Dimensional inspection, surface inspection, hardness/mechanical checks as specified; PMI or third-party inspection can be arranged where appropriate. |
| Documentation | MTC / EN 10204 3.1 when specified; dimensional, surface and hardness reports; PMI available where technically appropriate. |
| Packing | Moisture-proof paper or film, edge protection, steel strapping and export pallet/wooden case as required. Coil eye orientation and maximum package weight can be agreed before shipment. |
| Price Basis | Price is determined by grade, thickness, width, temper/hardness, surface, tolerance, edge condition, coil configuration, order quantity, inspection and packing requirements, plus current stainless raw-material/alloy costs. |
| Supply Status | Stock, regular production or made-to-order depending on grade, dimensions, temper, finish and inspection requirements. |
Send grade, BA surface requirement, thickness * width, which side is appearance-critical, film/interleaving requirement, edge, coil ID and quantity. If visual acceptance is strict, provide a reference sample or agreed inspection standard.
1. What does BA mean?
BA means bright annealed, a bright surface produced by annealing under a controlled atmosphere.
2. Is BA the same as 8K mirror finish?
No. BA and mechanically mirror-polished 8K are different finishes and should not be treated as interchangeable.
3. Can 304 BA strip be slit to custom width?
Yes, custom slitting is available subject to gauge and edge requirements.
4. Can BA strip have protective film?
Protective film can be considered for suitable applications and surfaces.
5. Is 430 available in BA?
430 BA is commonly requested and can be quoted subject to the exact size and production route.
6. Can 316L be BA finish?
Yes, where the gauge and production route allow; specify grade and surface together.
7. How should surface quality be specified?
Define critical side, acceptable scratches/marks, gloss or roughness if needed, film and packing requirements.
8. Does BA improve corrosion resistance compared with 2B?
Surface condition can influence corrosion behavior, but grade selection and environment remain the primary factors; BA should not be sold as a substitute for a more corrosion-resistant grade.
9. Can BA strip be deburred?
Yes, but edge processing and surface protection must be coordinated to avoid cosmetic damage.
10. How is BA strip packed?
It is wrapped and protected against moisture, scratching and edge damage, with pallets or wooden cases as required.
