yes
304 strength ranges from 80,000 psi to 250,000 psi, depending on degree of cold work. Standard carbon steel strength is less than 80,000 psi.

The major differences between 202 and 304 stainless steels are in the nickel and chromium contents. 202 has 16-18% chromium and 0.5-4.0% nickel, whilst 304 has 18-20% chromium and 8-10.5% nickel. There are other minor differences in the amount of carbon (0.08% in 304 and 0.12% in 202), manganese (2% in 304 and 5.5-7.5% in 202), as well as slight differences in the silicon, phosphorus and molybdenum contents. Both are austenitic steels and are essentially non-magnetic, but will become temporarily magnetic by working them. The manganese helps preserve the austenitic phase in the steels, as does the nickel. I can see an attraction in some people for using the 202 steel as it contains less nickel, and there is concern amongst some folk that they are sensitive to nickel.
In rockwell, it should be between 23-32 HRC
Nothing there both the same
304 and 304L are stainless steel electrodes. but in 304L, L denotes Lower percentage of Carbon content.It improves the corrosion resistance character of filler wire.
the answer is 304
304 C
UTS of 304L Stainless Steel is 586MPa UTS of 304 Stainless Steel is 621MPa
yes
I assume you mean 18-8. 18-8 steel is stainless steel with about 18% chromium amnd 8% nickel. 304 is in that category and is indeed an 18-8 steel. There are other 18-8 steels, such as 301 and 302, so while all 304 steels are 18-8 not all 18-8 steels are 304
s.s 304 is the best material for heat resistance i.e its has good properties axydisation , not acidic reactive
Stainless steel grades 18/8 refer to the composition of the steel, with 18 chromium and 8 nickel. This combination provides good corrosion resistance and strength. The main difference between 18/8 grades lies in their carbon content, with 304 being the most common and versatile, while 316 offers better resistance to corrosion in harsh environments.
Japanese standard for stainless steel grade 304.
Both 304 and 316 stainless steel are commonly used for kitchen appliances, but 316 stainless steel is generally considered better due to its higher corrosion resistance and durability.
SS 321 contains titanium which makes it more corrosion resistant than SS 304. SS 321 is better suited for high temperature applications due to its improved resistance to intergranular corrosion. SS 304 is a general-purpose stainless steel with good overall corrosion resistance but not as high as SS 321.
