The Stainless Steel 304L Bars and Rods are made up of 18–20% chromium and 8–12% nickel, with a low carbon content (maximum 0.03%) that boosts corrosion resistance after welding. This low-carbon variant of 304 stainless steel is particularly effective against oxidation and general corrosion, especially in mildly acidic and chloride-rich environments. In terms of mechanical properties, it boasts a tensile strength of about 485–620 MPa and a yield strength of around 170–310 MPa. The alloy is also known for its good ductility, weldability, and toughness, making it an excellent choice for structural applications in corrosive settings.
