316/316L Stainless Steel

Type 316, 316L stainless steel contains slightly more nickel than type 304 giving it better resistance to corrosion than type 304, especially in chloride environments that tend to cause pitting. 316L has superior intergranular corrosion resistance after welding or stress relieving. Easy to maintain, good pitting resistance, superior creep strength, and close tolerances. Typical uses include marine environment components, conveyors, and food processing equipment components.

316L: A low carbon version of type 316 stainless.
