Which is better, 304 or 3 16 stainless steel slingshot?

1 is generally made of stainless steel. From the point of view of corrosion resistance, 3 16L is good, but if slingshots have no requirements for corrosion resistance, they are basically good, and there is no obvious difference in hardness, elongation, yield strength and tensile strength data.

2 Stainless steel: The corrosion resistance of stainless steel decreases with the increase of carbon content. Therefore, the carbon content of most stainless steels is low, and the maximum carbon content does not exceed 1.2%. The Wc (carbon content) of some steels is even lower than 0.03% (for example, 00Cr 12). The main alloying element in stainless steel is Cr (chromium), and only when the Cr content reaches a certain value can the steel have corrosion resistance. Therefore, the Cr content of stainless steel is at least 10.5%. Stainless steel also contains elements such as nickel, titanium, manganese, nitrogen, niobium, molybdenum, silicon and copper.
