Does 316sst have better corrosion resistance than 304sst in di water?
Compared to 304 grade stainless steel, the 316 has higher strength, can withstand higher temperatures, and yes it can resist corrosion better. One factor is the molybdenum content in the 316 grade which gives it the overall corrosion resistant properties. The downside, 316 stainless steel grade is way more expensive than 304.
