AISI 316L stainless steel is a modified ultra-low carbon Cr-Ni-Mo series austenitic stainless steel based on AISI 316. It is recommended for parts that cannot be annealed after welding in certain corrosive environments.

SAE 316L grade stainless steel, sometimes referred to as A4 stainless steel or marine grade stainless steel, is the second most common austenitic stainless steel after 304/A2 stainless steel.

2021年1月12日 · 316 and 316L stainless steel alloys are both marine-grade steels, but they do possess some key differences. 316L has a lower proportion of carbon in its composition. To qualify as 316L stainless steel, the amount of carbon cannot exceed 0.03%.

Both AISI 316 vs 316L stainless steel are molybdenum (Mo) containing austenitic stainless steel grades. The main difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel is the level of carbon content, weldability, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.

316L stainless steel is an austenitic stainless steel that belongs to the standard CrNiMo stainless steels, the “L” at 316L stainless steel grade stands for low carbon (≤0.030%), it is the low carbon version of 316, adding 2 ~ 3% of molybdenum element enhances its corrosion resistance. 316L is food grade and marine grade, also called SS 316L and...

2022年7月14日 · 316L stainless steel is a low carbon austenitic stainless steel. It has excellent corrosion resistance in a wide range of environments. 316L stainless steel is non-magnetic in the annealed condition, but can become slightly magnetic after cold working.

2024年11月11日 · 316L stainless steel is a low-carbon version of 316 stainless steel that offers great corrosion resistance, especially in salty environments. It is strong, easy to weld, and perfect for many demanding applications.

316L stainless steel is a low-carbon variant of 316 stainless steel, with a maximum carbon content of 0.03%. In comparing 316 vs. 316L, The lower carbon content makes 316L less prone to carbide precipitation during welding, which can lead to intergranular corrosion.

AISI 316 stainless steel (UNS S31600) is the second most commonly used austenitic stainless steel. Due to the addition of Molybdenum (Mo), SS 316 has a great improvement in corrosion resistance and certain properties compared to SS304.

Type 316L is an extra low carbon version of type 316. Type 316 and 316L is available in Sheet, Strip, Plate, Angles, Tube, Bar (Hexagon, Round, Flat, Square), Forging Stock, Welding Wire. 316 Foil (Shim) is available in various thicknesses. View stock list for further information.
