stainless steel question
(OP)
This is driving me crazy, as I have a good idea of what I'm looking at and cannot find any information on the numbering of this steel I'm dealing with.
What I've got is a callout for A240 TP 304. I've got that the A240 is the ASTM standard for Chromium/Nickel stainless plate, and the 304 is the AISI specification for a low carbon austinitic plate.
What the heck is the TP? I can't find a list of those prefixes anywhere. If anyone has a list of these modifiers, I'd be much appreciative.
Thanks!

A240 is a sheet and strip specification, it does not contain the TP designators.

RE: stainless steel question
'A240 TP 304' should be 'A240 Type 304.'
The problem probably started with people (unfortunately) abbreviating Type as TY.
