Similar to 304 stainless steel, 304L stainless steel has one key difference in its chemical composition. The maximum carbon content of 304 stainless steel is 0.08%, whereas grade 304L stainless steel has a maximum carbon of only 0.03%. This is why the “L” in 304L can be interpreted as extra-low carbon. It is usually used to produce equipment and parts that demand better corrosion resistance and formability.
