Stainless Steel 316L Sheet

316L Sheet/Plate

about this item:

316L stainless steel is a versatile and high-performance material within the austenitic stainless steel family. The "316" designation highlights its specific alloy composition, which typically includes 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, 2-3% molybdenum, and a maximum of 2.0% manganese. The "L" in 316L stainless steel stands for low carbon content, usually around 0.03% or lower, which enhances its weldability and reduces the risk of corrosion after welding. This makes it an excellent choice for industries that require both corrosion resistance and weldability, such as marine, chemical processing, and pharmaceuticals.
