Density is a measure of mass within a specific volume. Density equals the mass of an object divided by its volume and is represented by the symbol ρ.
In the International System of Units (SI) and Chinese legal units of measurement, density is measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³). Other units are expressed in g/cm³ (note: 1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³).
The density varies slightly depending on the type of stainless steel. 304 stainless steel has a density of approximately 7.93 g/cm³, while 316 stainless steel has a density of approximately 8.0 g/cm³.
There are many grades of stainless steel, but the density of most types generally fluctuates between 7.7 and 8.0 g/cm³.
