What do the national standard for stainless steel plates for commercial kitchen equipment?

When purchasing commercial kitchen equipment, we often encounter the problem of stainless steel thickness, and the thickness parameters often include national standards, industry standards and full thickness. What do these mean? Let SHINELONG give you a simple answer today. Stainless steel plates must have tolerances due to process problems, and the error range of this tolerance is determined by various standards, and the most common ones on the market are national standards and industry standards. The national standard for the thickness tolerance of national stainless steel plates refers to the allowable standard for the thickness tolerance of stainless steel plates formulated by the state. In the commercial kitchen equipment industry, the national standard tolerance range used by compliant manufacturers is ±0.1mm, that is, the thickness error of the entire stainless steel plate is within ±0.1mm. This standard ensures the accuracy and consistency of stainless steel plates when making equipment. The industry standard for the thickness tolerance of industry standard stainless steel plates refers to the allowable standard for the thickness tolerance of stainless steel plates formulated by different industries. In the commercial kitchen equipment industry, the industry standard tolerance range is usually ±0.4mm, and the worse is ±0.5mm. Compared with the national standard, the tolerance range of the industry standard is larger, which is mainly affected by factors such as different industries, different regions, and different stainless steel plate factories. Most cheap commercial kitchen brands take the industry standard as the standard, and reduce the cost of raw materials and manufacturing process of the equipment by reducing the thickness tolerance, but this may also reduce the reliability and durability of the equipment. Full thickness Full thickness refers to the tolerance thickness of stainless steel plates that fully meet the national standard or industry standard. Since there will be certain process tolerances in the production process of stainless steel plates, the thickness of some plates may vary. After further testing, if the thickness of a certain stainless steel plate fully meets the requirements of the national standard or industry standard, then this plate can be called full national standard or full industry standard, that is, full thickness. Full thickness stainless steel plates have higher reliability and durability in commercial kitchen equipment, and in order to achieve full thickness, stainless steel plates will be thicker on average than ordinary standard steel plates, but it will usually increase the cost of equipment. When purchasing commercial kitchen equipment, it is recommended that users choose well-known commercial kitchen manufacturers with long experience. Here, SHINELONG is taken as an example. SHINELONG's kitchen equipment uniformly adopts national standard stainless steel thickness. For special needs or engineering needs, you can also choose national standard full thickness. Of course, the conventional national standard kitchen equipment on the market already has good reliability and durability. There is no difference between national standard and full thickness national standard in daily use. Therefore, if it is not a project requirement, it is not recommended to pursue full thickness, because the cost will be much higher. Well, today's commercial kitchen sharing ends here.
