1/11/2020· Type 304L Stainless Steel Type 304L stainless steel is an extra-low carbon version of the 304 steel alloy. The lower carbon content in 304L minimizes deleterious or harmful carbide precipitation as a result of welding. 304L can, therefore, be used "as welded" in severe corrosion environments, and it eliminates the need for annealing.

12/21/2010· The difference between the types of stainless steel is the amount of chromium and nickel found in each. 304 stainless steel contains a much higher percentage of chromium and nickel. This makes it much more resistant to rust. 409 stainless steel is still more rust-resistant than Aluminized Steel. However, neither type of metal is rust-proof.

3/26/2009· 301 stainless steel, of course, is not as corrosion resistant as 304. It has lower chromium and nickel and higher carbon. It should be lower cost, but also lower in performance from a corrosion resistance standpoint. It would probably process faster. It is still a good grade of steel, but not AS good.
