Cutting stainless steel
When cutting stainless steel you need a tool that will cut quickly, accurately and cleanly. For better results use a deep cut band saw and a 18 tooth bi-metal blade.
To achieve a burr-free and straight cut, the following steps have been taken to cut stainless rail:
- Cut the tubing
- Using a belt sander, sand the tube so its flat
- Clean and sand using a 220-320 grit sand paper
Note: Consult your local building code for specific requirements.
Exterior Grade Railing AISI 316 exhibit better corrosion resistance than Type 304 (interior). It is also known as marine grade stainless steel due to its increased resistance to chloride corrosion compared to type 304.
