Properties 316L stainless Steel
Adds Mo (2-3%), cold-rolled product appearance, good gloss, beautiful;

The addition of Mo, corrosion resistance, especially resistance to pitting corrosion;

Excellent high temperature strength

Excellent hardening (after processing weakly magnetic)

Solid solution state non-magnetic;

Relative to 304 stainless steel, it has higher prices.(10 Ni)

Date Compare with other grade

Welding
Excellent weld ability by all standard fusion and resistance methods, both with and without filler metals. Heavy welded sections in Grade 316 require post-weld annealing for maximum corrosion resistance. This is not required for 316L.

316L stainless steel is not generally weldable using oxyacetylene welding methods.

Machining
316L stainless steel tends to work harden if machined too quickly. For this reason low speeds and constant feed rates are recommended.

316L stainless steel is also easier to machine compared to 316 stainless steel due its lower carbon content.

Hot and Cold Working
316L stainless steel can be hot worked using most common hot working techniques. Optimal hot working temperatures should be in the range 1150-1260°C, and certainly should not be less than 930°C. Post work annealing should be carried out to induce maximum corrosion resistance.

Most common cold working operations such as shearing, drawing and stamping can be performed on 316L stainless steel. Post work annealing should be carried out to remove internal stresses.

Hardening and Work Hardening
316L stainless steel does not harden in response to heat treatments. It can be hardened by cold working, which can also result in increased strength.

316L is suitable for mixing equipment, chemicals, fuels, papermaking, oxalic acid, waste production equipment, photography, food industry, coastal facilities., ect.
