316 Stainless Steel


316L, 316H, 316Ti, 316Nb, 316N, 316LN, 316J1, etc. All of the above are 316 stainless steel derivatives. These seven types of stainless steel materials in the 316 stainless steel based on the addition of which alloying elements, and adjust the proportion of which alloying elements? Mechanical properties between them are similar? Characteristics and uses are similar?316 stainless steel manufacturers direct WUXI XINSHANHU STEEL CO., LTD. organized 316 stainless steel derivatives of the chemical composition, characteristics and uses, to help you understand the difference between 316 stainless steel derivatives.

316 Stainless Steel Properties and Uses


316 stainless steel: In seawater and various other media, corrosion resistance is better than 06Cr19Ni10 (304 stainless steel). Mainly used for pitting corrosion resistant materials.

316L stainless steel: 06Cr17Ni12M2 (316 stainless steel) for the ultra-low carbon steel, ultra-low carbon austenitic stainless steel on a variety of inorganic acids, alkalis, salts (such as sulfurous acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, formic acid, chlorinated salts, halogens, sulfites and so on) have good corrosion resistance. Due to the low carbon content, therefore, good welding performance, suitable for multi-layer welding, generally do not need heat treatment after welding, and no tendency to cut corrosion after welding. Can be used for the manufacture of synthetic fibers, petrochemicals, textiles, fertilizers, printing and dyeing and atomic energy and other industrial equipment, such as towers, tanks, containers, pipelines and so on.

316H stainless steel: compared with 06Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316 stainless steel), 316H stainless steel carbon (C) content adjusted from 0.08% to 0.04% to 0.10%, high temperature resistance increased, 316H stainless steel is widely used in heating gold, boilers, carbide conveyor belts.

316Ti stainless steel: good resistance to intergranular corrosion, used for resistance to sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, formic acid, acetic acid equipment.

316Nb stainless steel: better intergranular corrosion resistance than 06Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316 stainless steel)

316N stainless steel: 06Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316 stainless steel) in the addition of nitrogen (N), to improve the strength, does not reduce the plasticity, so that the use of the material thickness of the thinning. Used for corrosion resistance of higher strength parts.

316LN Stainless Steel: Uses the same as 0Cr17Ni12Mo2N (316N Stainless Steel) but has better intergranular corrosion resistance.

316J1 stainless steel: corrosion resistance, pitting resistance than 06Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316 stainless steel). Used for sulfuric acid resistant materials.
