316 / 316L stainless steel plates are part of the austenitic family of stainless steel and is the most widely used varieties of stainless plate. 316 grades contain a higher level of Nickel than 304 giving it an improved corrosion resistance over 304 grades. 316/316L plate is a good option for marine applications due to a good atmospheric corrosion resistance. 316L is a low carbon modification to 316 grade.
Grade 316 stainless steel plate is the standard molybdenum-bearing grade of stainless steel plate. The molybdenum gives 316 stainless steel plate better overall corrosion resistant properties than grade 304 stainless steel plate. It has particularly higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments. 316 stainless steel plate has excellent forming and welding characteristics. It is readily brake or roll formed into a variety of parts for applications in the industrial, architectural, and transportation fields. Grade 316 stainless steel plate also has outstanding welding characteristics. Grade 316L stainless steel plate is the low carbon version of 316 stainless steel plate and is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components.
