EXCELLENT CORROSION RESISTANCE
Stainless Steel 316 is renowned for its excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for use in applications where the material may be exposed to harsh environments or corrosive substances.
HIGH STRENGTH AND DURABILITY
With a tensile strength of up to 579 MPa (84 ksi) and a yield strength of up to 290 MPa (42 ksi), Stainless Steel 316 can withstand high levels of stress and deformation without losing its shape or structural integrity.
GREATER RESISTANCE TO PITTING AND CREVICE CORROSION THAN STAINLESS STEEL 304
The addition of molybdenum to the alloy provides superior corrosion resistance in chloride-rich environments, such as marine and coastal environments.
