Stainless Steel density and calculation basis
Stainless Steel is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 8000 kg/m^3, equivalent to 8 g/cm^3. Representative stainless steel density.
At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Stainless Steel corresponds to 8 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 0.125 liters. Its table density is 702.4% higher than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.
Among the 13 fixed table records labeled Metals, the nearest density to Stainless Steel is Steel (Carbon) at 7850 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 150 kg/m^3 (1.9% relative to Stainless Steel). 5 records have a lower fixed density and 7 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Aluminum at 2700 kg/m^3 to Gold at 19320 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.
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.
The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
