304L
304L is a low-carbon austenitic, non-magnetic grade stainless steel powder with excellent corrosion resistance. The low carbon makes it suitable for 3D printing applications as it minimizes carbide precipitation during melting while maintaining high strength and ductility.
- High ductility and toughness
