Unique Features:

ASTM A666 316 Stainless Steel Sheet stands out for its superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, especially in chloride environments. This sheet’s addition of molybdenum gives it enhanced resistance to chemical corrosion, making it ideal for high-corrosive environments such as seawater and acidic conditions. With a tensile strength of 515–700 MPa and exceptional weldability, it is ideal for applications requiring a combination of strength and resistance to corrosion. The 316 grade also retains its high mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for high-temperature applications up to 870°C (1600°F).
