Astm 316 stainless steel sheet.

Grade 316l stainless steel sheet comes in many types and thicknesses the main types of ss 316l sheets are perforated sheets chequered plate shim sheet strips coils foils flats and circles. 316 stainless sheet is widely used in marine and highly acidic environments underwater equipment surgical tools food and pharmaceutical applications the addition of molybdenum increases the corrosion resistance of 316 stainless over the more economical 304 grade. This type of stainless steel plate has become very popular in the chemical medical and pharmaceutical industry due to its strong resistance to corrosion. 316l is a low carbon modification.

Ss 316 plates are produced by two manufacturing processes hot rolled and cold worked. 316 and 316l stainless steel plate has a higher chromium content and molybdenum which makes this type of stainless steel plate resistant to corrosive elements. In astm a240 type 316 and 316l is a chromium nickel austenitic steel element molybdenum addition can enhances corrosion resistance of stainless steel which is the main factor that 316 316l is more corrosion resistant than 304 304l. Temperature range c f j kg k btu lb f.

Grade 316 stainless steel properties. 316 316l plate is a good option for marine applications due to a good atmospheric corrosion resistance. Standard specification for chromium and chromium nickel stainless steel plate sheet and strip for pressure vessels and for general applications. Aisi astm 316 stainless steel properties such as physical properties mechanical properties magnetic properties are summarized in the tables below.

316 grades contain a higher level of nickel than 304 giving it an improved corrosion resistance over 304 grades. 316 316l stainless steel sheet is a popular grade of stainless where superior corrosion resistance is of primary importance. Minimum room temperature mechanical properties astm a240 and a666 specifications. 316 and 316l stainless steel plate applications and usage.

316 316l stainless steel plates are part of the austenitic family of stainless steel and is the most widely used varieties of stainless plate. Astm a240 316 316l stainless steel plate.
