304L

UNS #S30400/S30403

304L is a low-carbon version of conventional austenitic 304. Controlling carbon of the austenitic alloy to a maximum of 0.03% minimizes carbide precipitation during welding. For use in the as-welded condition in corrosive applications. Suggested for applications requiring a moderate level of improvement in machinability for shorter runs of less complex parts, particularly at larger bar diameters.
