Methodology
Stainless Steel density and calculation basis
Evidence status: needs-review.
Stainless steel density varies by alloy grade.
grade: Core 304 stainless steel
Source basis: Outokumpu, Core range datasheet, physical properties. Table 7, Core 304 physical properties. https://www.outokumpu.com/-/media/files/products/core/outokumpu-core-range-datasheet.pdf Applicability: conditional-comparison.
Identify representative grade and its density conditions.
Do not generalize a grade-specific value to all stainless steels.
For this direction, volume is calculated as mass divided by density after normalizing the units to kilograms and cubic meters. The resulting page multiplier is 0.239653 cup (US) per lb.
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
