The company is dedicated to reliability, timely delivery, and tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of clients across global markets.
These Stainless Steel 316L Bars and Rods are primarily made of iron, containing about 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and 2–3% molybdenum, along with a low carbon content of up to 0.03%. This low carbon level significantly boosts resistance to intergranular corrosion, especially after welding. On the mechanical side, SS 316L boasts impressive tensile strength, good yield strength, and high ductility and toughness. It also shows remarkable resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attacks, particularly in environments rich in chlorides and marine conditions.
