316 stainless steel sheet – superior strength and corrosion resistance

316 stainless steel, a prime example of austenitic stainless steel, boasts a molybdenum content (2%-3%) that significantly enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Its corrosion resistance in chloride environments is significantly superior to 304 stainless steel, making it particularly suitable for demanding applications such as marine and chemical industries.

316 material combines high strength with excellent processability, achieving a room-temperature tensile strength exceeding 515 MPa and an elongation exceeding 40%. Cold work hardening further enhances its strength while maintaining excellent weldability and low-temperature toughness.

The low-carbon variant of 316L effectively suppresses weld sensitization, and its biocompatibility makes it a top choice for medical devices. From desalination equipment to pharmaceutical piping to nuclear power plant components, its versatility continues to push the boundaries of industrial applications.
