The most-used names for this grade.About Stainless steels
Stainless steels are corrosion-resistant alloy steels whose chromium content promotes a protective passive surface film. They are used for equipment, structures and components exposed to moisture, chemicals or hygienic service, with different alloy compositions selected for corrosion resistance, strength, formability or weldability.
This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

Chemical composition
8 elements on file · weight %What this alloy is
Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade.
| Element | % by weight |

0.11 |
The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

The published column is the source string byte-for-byte, decimal comma and all; Min and Max are the parsed bounds. Elements not listed have no value on file — they are omitted, never inferred.

Physical & mechanical properties
An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.

8 further values are held for this grade under a condition the source did not name — a bound with no quantity attached. They are withheld rather than shown against a guessed condition.
Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ.
