316 Stainless Steel Plate

Our 316 stainless steel plate is engineered for durability, corrosion resistance, and strength, making it ideal for marine, chemical, and industrial applications. Manufactured to international standards, it offers excellent weldability, formability, and long service life even in harsh environments.

PRODUCTS INTRODUCTION

316 stainless steel plate (UNS S31600 / 1.4401) is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel with added molybdenum, which significantly improves resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride environments. Compared with 304 stainless steel, 316 is more suitable for marine, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries, where superior corrosion resistance is required.
