UNS – S31600 / S31609 / S31603 / S31635
Stainless Steel Grade 316 is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel includes molybdenum. This addition increases corrosion resistance, enhances resistance to pitting chloride ion solutions and give expanded strength at high temperatures. Properties are same as to those of type 304 aside from that 316 are somewhat stronger at high temperatures. Corrosion resistance is enhanced, specifically against sulfuric, hydrochloric, acetic, formic and tartaric acids, acid sulphates and alkaline chlorides.
Stainless Steel Grade 316L is a low carbon austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steels with corrosion resistance same as type 316 however with resistance to intergranular corrosion following welding.
Stainless Steel Grade 316H is a higher carbon variation of 316 making the steel more suitable for use in applications where high temperatures are available. Balanced Grade 316Ti offers comparable qualities. The expanded carbon content delivers a greater tensile and yield strength. The austenitic structure of the material also gives this grade excellent toughness, even down to cryogenic temperatures.
Stainless Steel Grade 316Ti is Titanium balanced out austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel includes molybdenum. This extension increases corrosion resistance, enhances resistance to pitting chloride ion solutions and give expanded strength at high temperatures. Properties are like those of type 316 with the exception of 316Ti because of its Titanium addition can be used at high sensitization temperatures. Corrosion resistance is enhanced, especially against sulfuric, hydrochloric, acetic, formic and tartaric acids, acid sulphates and alkaline chlorides.
