304 is a low carbon modification of 302 SST (which is the general purpose austenitic or 18-8 SST) for restriction of carbide precipitation during welding. 304L is a lower carbon modification of 304 for further restriction of carbide precipitation during welding. Max carbon in 304 is 0.08 versus 0.15 in 302 and 0.03 in 304L. 316 is more corrosion resistant than 302 and 304, with higher creep strength, primarily due to the higher Nickel content. 316L is again primarily used for welded construction. 316 has the same carbon content as 304 and 316L as 304L. 302 304 304L 316 316L Cr 17/19 18/20 18/20 16/18 16/18 Ni 8/10 8/12 8/12 10/14 10/14 C max 0.15 0.08 0.03 0.08 0.03 Mn max 2.0 2.0 2.0 2.0 2.0 Si max 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 P max .045 .045 .045 .045 .045 S max .03 .03 .03 .03 .03 Other - - - Mo 2.0/3.0 316L can be used in place of 316 in all applications but the reverse is not true. 316L should be used for welded structures requiring high corrosion resistance. 316L is more expensive than 316 in most regions of the world.

What is the difference between SS316 and ss304 and ss316l?

SS316, SS304, and SS316L are all types of stainless steel. SS316 is known for its increased corrosion resistance compared to SS304, particularly in high chloride environments. SS316L is a low carbon version of SS316, which helps prevent sensitization and subsequent corrosion.


What is the difference between SS316 and SS416?

SS316 is a corrosion-resistant austenitic stainless steel with higher chromium and nickel content, suitable for use in high-temperature and chemical environments. SS416 is a martensitic stainless steel with added sulfur for improved machinability, commonly used in applications requiring moderate corrosion resistance and high strength. The main difference lies in their composition and intended applications.


What is the difference between SS316 and SS316L?

SS 316L, the low carbon version of SS 316 and is immune from sensitisation (grain boundary carbide precipitation).SS 316H, with its higher carbon content has application at elevated temperatures, same as SS 316Ti which is a Titanium stabilised grade .SS 316N is nitrogen enhanced with greater strength than SS 316


Difference between ss 321 and ss 304?

SS 321 contains titanium which makes it more corrosion resistant than SS 304. SS 321 is better suited for high temperature applications due to its improved resistance to intergranular corrosion. SS 304 is a general-purpose stainless steel with good overall corrosion resistance but not as high as SS 321.

What is the difference between SUS304 stainless steel railings and SUS316 stainless steel Balustrade?

1.Stainless steel 304:SS304 will be available for using indoor, far away from rivers, lakes and oceans.or somewhere doesn't rain too much outdoor all the year round.?or it will be easy to be rusty if it closes to the rivers, oceans.or the climate is railing too much outside.2.Stainless steel 316:SS316 can be used outdoor completely, even close to the oceans and will not be rusty at all.

Ultimate strength of SS304?

The ultimate strength of annealed SS304 is 80,000 psi (550 MPa). Its yield strength is 30,000 psi, and its shears strength is 80000/(SQRT(3)) = 46000 psi. If it is cold worked, as for bolts, its yield and ultimate and shear strength will increase.


What is difference of SS 304 to SS 316 in terms of corrosion resistance?

SS304 contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel. SS316 contains 16% chromium, 10% nickel and 2% molybdenum. The "moly" is added to help resist corrosion to chlorides (like sea water and de-icing salts) .
