SS 304L

Low-carbon stainless for welding

SS 304L is the low-carbon version of SS 304, preferred for welded fabrication where resistance to intergranular corrosion is important.

Density
8.0 g/cm³
Tensile strength
500-700 MPa
Max temperature
~800 °C

Pros

  • Better for welding
  • Good corrosion resistance
  • Widely available

Considerations

  • Slightly lower strength than 304
  • Not marine-grade
