316 stainless steel plate Ni 10% to 14%, Cr 16% to 18%, with 2.0 to 3.0% of Molybdenum which provides better corrosion resistance than 304/L.
316/316L Stainless Steel Plate, Sheet, Coil Specification - Octal. 316 stainless steel plate is a higher common use stainless steel than 304&304L, it has 2.0 to 3.0% of Molybdenum content which provides better overal corrossion resistant than 304 stainless steel. Especially in chloride environments it has great resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Same with 304, 316 stainless steel plate has great forming and welding characteristics.
It could be easily formed or cutted into different parts for building a lot lf machine. Difference between 316 and 316L Grade 316L stainless steel plate/sheet has low carbon content than 316, so 316L is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components. Applications: Energy and Heavy Indsutries - Oil and Gas, Electrical steel (Silicon Steel), Solar Board. 316 Stainless Steel Plate Difference between 304 and 316 Stainless Steel Both grades are austenitic stainless steel which is one of the most widely used and versatile type of steel. 316/316L Stainless Contains Mo Provides better Resistance to High Temperature Hot Rolling.
