I had issues with 303 and 304 lately. I did not get certs, so I have no idea where it came from, but since I bought it from McMaster I figured it was either domestic or European and of good quality. The 304 ate tooling unless I dropped the RPMs way down and lowered the feed rate from the last time I ran the job. Trying to run at the same speed as last time was making brown parts with a mottled finish. Ran some 303 yesterday that was getting random tearing on some parts, till I slowed it down. These parts were all small, made from 3/16" and 1/4". Fortunately the jobs were quantities of 6, 12, and 30 pieces, so turning 2 min 30 second parts into 5 minute ones didn't create a big problem.
I now do not shop around for stainless. I always use the same supplier and never let customers supply material. Its my policy to have customers "pay" for material as opposed to "supplying" it themselves.
Find a good SS supplier and stick with it and pay what they charge you. It will be better for you in the long run.
Avoid all this crap with two words- Carpenter Technology.
We had some steel from a scandinavian forge (fully traceable) fail mpi recently due to laminations.
It happens.
