What is stainless steel 301L

What is stainless steel 301L

Stainless steel grade 301L has a low carbon is preferred for improved ductility, and another variant 301LN with higher nitrogen content has a higher work hardening rate than standard 301.

Grade 301L has the same chemical contents with grade 301. The difference is the content of C in 301 stainless steel is lower than 0.15 and content in 301L SS is lower 0.03. The next difference is content of N in 301 SS is lower 0.1 and in 301L SS is lower 0.2

Only stainless steel grade 301 is specified in ASTM A666, but 301L is covered by JIS G4305 and 301LN is in EN10088-2 as grade 1.4318.
