Unique Features:

ASTM A276 316 Stainless Steel Sheet is characterized by its high resistance to corrosion, particularly in environments that contain chloride ions, such as seawater and chemical processes. This resistance is primarily due to the addition of molybdenum (2-3%), which improves resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. In addition to its superior corrosion resistance, 316 stainless steel retains its strength and integrity at high temperatures, making it suitable for both high-temperature and high-stress environments. Its excellent weldability and formability make it a preferred material for a variety of industrial, marine, and architectural applications.
