Bluetooth & Home Speaker Grille in 304 Stainless Steel (AISI 304 (1.4301)) is used for protecting the drivers of Bluetooth, bookshelf and home-theater speakers with a domed perforated metal grille that clears the cone at full excursion. The alloy gives good general corrosion resistance in atmosphere and fresh water and is essentially non-magnetic (annealed), with a practical service limit of approx. +450 °C continuous.
