When your application requires a high amount of corrosion resistance, 316/316L Stainless Steel is the right material for your company. 

The main difference between this grade of stainless steel and 304/304L stainless steel is that 316/316L stainless steel had molybdenum. 

The addition of this element makes 316 stainless steel able to remain durable in harsh, corrosive environments.

Application：Exterior decoration; Architectur; Evevator; Kitchen; Ceiling; Cabinet; Advertising nameplate; Roof structure;Ship building.

 One exception, however, is in highly oxidizing acids such as nitric acid where stainless steels containing molybdenum are less resistant. Alloy 316/316L performs well in sulfur containing service such as that encountered in the pulp and paper industry. 

The alloy can be used in high concentrations at temperatures up to 120°F (38°C).Alloy 316L also has good resistance to pitting in phosphoric and acetic acid. 

It performs well in boiling 20% phosphoric acid. The alloy can also be used in the food and pharmaceutical process industries where it is utilized to handle hot organic and fatty acids in an effort to minimize product contamination.
