CarTech® 304/304L Stainless
Generic Family:
Steel - Wrought - Stainless - Austenitic
•
Supplied by:
Carpenter Technology Corporation
CarTech 304/304L is a low-carbon version of CarTech 304.
In this low-carbon austenitic alloy, control of carbon to a maximum of 0.03% has been shown to minimize carbide precipitation during welding. Customers have reported the use of this steel in corrosive service in the as-welded condition.
CarTech 304/304L is suggested for applications requiring a moderate level of improvement in machinability for shorter runs of less complex parts, particularly at larger bar diameters.
Manufacturers interested in realizing the potential economic benefits and lower costs associated with higher machining speeds and lower cycle times should consider CarTech 304/304L Project 70®+ stainless.
Customers have reported that CarTech 304/304L Project 70+ stainless offers significantly improved machinability characteristics over generic 304/304L. This includes up to 50% and higher machining speeds with improved finishes and longer tool life.
Applications:
CarTech 304/304L stainless should be considered for use in a wide range of food processing, dairy and dyeing industry applications, such as pipelines, buckets, sterilizers and other types of preparation and processing equipment.
