Overview
Grade 304LN is a nitrogen-strengthened version of Grade 304, it is a nitrogen-strengthened version of Carpenter Stainless Type 304L. By means of solid solution strengthening, the nitrogen provides significantly higher yield and tensile strength as annealed than Type 304L without adversely affecting ductility, corrosion resistance or non-magnetic properties. Meanwhile, 304LN stainless has good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, like Type 304L. 304LN is resistant to a wide variety of inorganic chemicals as well as nitric acid.
