Characteristics and application fields of 316L stainless steel coil

316L stainless steel coil is a kind of molybdenum-containing stainless steel. Due to the molybdenum content in the steel, the overall performance of this steel is better than that of 310 and 304 stainless steel. Under high temperature conditions, when the concentration of sulfuric acid is lower than 15% or higher than 85%, 316L stainless steel Has a wide range of uses. 316L stainless steel also has good resistance to chloride attack, so it is usually used in marine environments.

316L stainless steel coil has a wide range of applications in the chemical industry due to its excellent corrosion resistance. 316L is also a derivative of 18-8 type austenitic stainless steel, with 2 to 3% of Mo added. On the basis of 316L, many steel grades are also derived. For example, 316Ti is derived after adding a small amount of Ti, 316N is derived after adding a small amount of N, and 317L is derived by increasing the content of Ni and Mo. Most of the existing 316L on the market are produced according to American Standard. For cost reasons, steel mills generally try to lower the Ni content of their products to the lower limit.

316L stainless steel mechanical properties:

Tensile Strength (Mpa) 485 MIN Yield Strength (Mpa) 170 MIN Elongation (%) 30 MIN Area Reduction (%) 40 MIN <187

316L stainless steel features

1) The appearance of cold-rolled products has good gloss and beautiful appearance;

2) Due to the addition of Mo, the corrosion resistance, especially the pitting resistance, is excellent;

3) Excellent high temperature strength

4) Good work hardening (weak magnetic after processing)

5) Non-magnetic in solid solution state;

6) Compared with 304 stainless steel, the price is higher.
