SS 316
Product Description
SS 316, also known as Stainless Steel 316, is a high-grade, corrosion-resistant alloy commonly used in various industries, especially where resistance to corrosion, particularly in harsh environments, is crucial. It is part of the austenitic family of stainless steels, which are known for their excellent mechanical properties, good weldability, and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. SS 316 is an alloy primarily made of iron, with chromium, nickel, and molybdenum

Key Properties
-
Corrosion Resistance : One of the most significant features of SS 316 is its high resistance to corrosion, particularly in chloride environments. It performs exceptionally well in marine environments, making it ideal for use in coastal and offshore applications.
-
High-Temperature Resistance : SS 316 can withstand higher temperatures compared to other grades of stainless steel, up to around 870°C (1600°F) in continuous service.
-
Strength and Durability : SS 316 has excellent tensile strength and is known for its resistance to wear, tear, and cracking under stress.
-
Non-Magnetic : It is non-magnetic in the annealed condition, which makes it ideal for use in sensitive applications, like in certain electronics and medical devices.
