    Types 302, 304, 304L, and 305 are variations of an 18% chromium-8% nickel austenitic stainless steel alloy. They offer excellent corrosion resistance and fabricability, making them widely used. The alloys contain 17-18% chromium, 8-10.5% nickel and have maximum carbon and other elemental contents specified. They resist corrosion in moderately oxidizing/reducing environments.

    Types 302 (S30200), 304(S30400), 304L (S30403), and 305 (S30500) stainless steels are variations of the 18 percent
    chromium – 8 percent nickel austenitic alloy, the most familiar and most frequently used alloy in the stainless steel family.
    Each alloy represents an excellent combination of corrosion resistance and fabricability. This combination of properties is
    the reason for the extensive use of these alloys which represent nearly one half of the total U.S. stainless steel production.

    Resistance to Corrosion: Types 302, 304, 304L and 305 austenitic stainless steels provide useful
    resistance to corrosion on a wide range of moderately oxidizing to moderately reducing environments.
    The alloys are used widely in equipment and utensils for processing and handling of food, beverages and
    dairy products. Heat exchangers, piping, tanks and other process equipment in contact with fresh water
    also utilize these alloys. Building facades and other architectural and structural applications exposed to
    non-marine atmospheres also heavily utilize the 18-8 alloys. In addition a large variety of applications
    involve household and industrial chemicals.
