Stainless Steel 316L Bars and Rods are low-carbon variants of SS 316, featuring 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, 2–3% molybdenum, and a maximum carbon content of 0.03%. This lower carbon content improves weldability and reduces the risk of carbide precipitation during welding. SS 316L boasts a tensile strength of about 485 MPa and a yield strength of roughly 170 MPa. It maintains excellent mechanical properties over a wide temperature range and shows outstanding resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments. Its austenitic structure ensures good toughness, even at cryogenic temperatures.
