# Stainless steel 1.4307 (X2CrNi18-9, 304L) Quelle: > Stainless steel 1.4307 (304L): The low-carbon version of 1.4301: same applications, better for welded structures. Semi-finished products cut to length. The low-carbon version of 1.4301: same applications, better for welded structures. | | | |---|---| | Material group | Stainless steel | | Standard / designation | 1.4307 to DIN EN 10088, also called AISI 304L | | Density | 7.9 kg/dm³ | | Available to order | 2 items in 1 shapes | | Comparison | [All stainless steel grades in one table (in German)](https://mvg-frankfurt.de/en/materials/stainless-steel) | 1.4307 is 1.4301 with less carbon. Hardly any chromium carbides form during welding, so the weld seam stays resistant to intergranular corrosion even without post-treatment. Welded structural tubes are therefore often made from 1.4307. We supply it as a brushed structural tube. ## Shapes in Stainless steel 1.4307 (X2CrNi18-9, 304L) - [Round tube 2 items](https://mvg-frankfurt.de/en/semi-finished/kategorie/rundrohr/edelstahl) [Calculate the weight of tubes and bars →](https://mvg-frankfurt.de/en/calculators/weight) ## Properties - Tensile strength 500 to 700 N/mm², yield strength at least 175 N/mm² - Low carbon: insensitive to intergranular corrosion after welding - Corrosion resistance like 1.4301, not for chlorides - Austenitic, practically non-magnetic ## Typical applications - Railings and visible structures from welded tubes - Apparatus, vessel and plant construction - Food and kitchen areas ## Processing notes Machine like 1.4301: saw slowly, cool well and only use tools that have never touched mild steel. ## Sizes in Stainless steel 1.4307 (X2CrNi18-9, 304L) 2 items - [**Stainless steel round tube Ø 20 × 1,5 mm** Stainless steel brushed K240/320 *Enter length & calculate price*](https://mvg-frankfurt.de/en/semi-finished/rundrohr-20-x-1-50-9100) - [**Stainless steel round tube Ø 60,3 × 2 mm** Stainless steel brushed K240/320 *Enter length & calculate price*](https://mvg-frankfurt.de/en/semi-finished/rundrohr-60-3-x-2-9107) We cut every semi-finished product to your fixed length, instant price, from one piece.
