Grade 316L, the low carbon version of 316 and is immune from sensitization (grain boundary carbide precipitation).There is commonly no appreciable price difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel.
Thus it is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components (over about 6mm). The austenitic structure also gives excellent toughness, even down to cryogenic temperatures.
Compared to chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels, 316L stainless steel offers higher creep, stress to rupture and tensile strength at elevated temperatures.
We are the major supplier of stainless steel for many industry pioneers.
