304 stainless steel is a type of steel resistant to corrosion, due to its contents such as chromium that has a high affinity for oxygen forms a passivating layer, which masks it against the action of external agents, preventing corrosion of iron. It usually serves to name an iron alloy with an amount of carbon.

Mechanical properties: (According to ASTM A240, A666)
| Guy | Yield strength 0,2 % compensation (KSI) | Tensile Strength (KSI) | % elongation (2" gauge length) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Annealed 304 | 30 min. | 75 min. | 40 min. |
| Hardness 304 1/4 | 75 min. | 125 min. | 12 min. |
| Hardness 304 1/2 | 110 min. | 150 min. | 7 min. |
| Annealed 304L | 25 min. | 70 min. | 40 min. |
| Hardness 304L 1/4 | 75 min. | 125 min. | 12 min. |
| Hardness 304L 1/2 | 110 min. | 150 min. | 6 min. |
Some situations where 304 stainless steel may be the best choice are:
Those in which excellent formability is required.
Those in which great formability is required.
Those with a more limited budget, which require an affordable material.
