316 Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Sheet

316 Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Sheet

316 Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Sheet is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel flat product manufactured through the hot rolling process. Compared with Grade 304, Type 316 offers superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride attack, making it the preferred material for marine, chemical processing, food processing, pharmaceutical, offshore, and industrial applications.

  • Product Introduction

Product Overview

 

316 Hot Rolled Stainless Steel Sheet is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel flat product manufactured through the hot rolling process. Compared with Grade 304, Type 316 offers superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride attack, making it the preferred material for marine, chemical processing, food processing, pharmaceutical, offshore, and industrial applications.

 

Hot rolled 316 stainless steel sheets are particularly suitable for structural fabrication, pressure vessels, storage tanks, industrial equipment, and heavy-duty engineering projects where corrosion resistance, strength, and durability are essential.

 

Manufactured according to international standards such as ASTM A240, ASME SA240, EN 10088, and JIS G4304, our sheets provide excellent weldability, formability, and long service life even under harsh environments.
