Type 302 / 304 is the basic (18-8) type stainless. It work hardens faster than Type 301, but offers better corrosion resistance. Some welding applications may benefit from Type 304L, a lower carbon version of 304. Type 302 / 304 is used in many applications including laser welded tubing, bellows, laser and chemical etching, medical, food and tool wrap applications. Type 302 / 304 is dual certified to meet both the 302 and 304 alloys. It is available in COIL and SHEET at Sidecuts.com®.
