It is the quality with the best malleability feature among the austenitics. Its malleability capability is around 78% and it is named as the automat of stainless steel. Although the sulfur (S) addition improves its malleability, it also reduces corrosion resistance (lower than 304) and weakens its formability, it is especially not suitable for straight bending. Despite sulfur, its toughness degree is the same as 304.
