Description
Type 321
Type 304/304L is the modern version of “18-8” stainless steel containing approximately 18% chromium and 8% nickel and is
Type 347
the most commonly specified stainless steel used throughout the world. Type 304/304L is a versatile, general purpose
Type 409
stainless steel with good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, and to many chemicals and food and beverages. These grades
Type 409can
can be specified in the annealed condition where they have very good formability. Higher nickel versions Ultra

enhance multi-stage deep drawing characteristics. Higher strength, cold-worked conditions can also 410
specified for Type
304/304L for spring type applications. Type 304/304L is non-magnetic in the annealed condition Type 430 become slightly
but may
magnetic as a result of cold working. Type 436

Type
Type 304L can be dual certified as 304 when the composition meets the lower carbon limit of 304L 439
and the slightly higher
Type 440A
strength levels of 304. Type 304L should be specified for welded applications as the low carbon version eliminates chromium
carbide precipitation and enhances the corrosion resistance in the as-welded condition. Type 441
