Material Notes:
Similar to Type 316 for superior corrosion resistance, but also has superior resistance to intergranular corrosion following welding or stress relieving. Good corrosion resistance to most chemicals, salts, and acids and molybdenum content helps resistance to marine environments. The low carbon content of 316L reduces the possibility of in vivo corrosion for medical implant use. High creep strength at elevated temperatures. 316L has fabrication characteristics similar to Types 302 and 304. Applications: biomedical implants, chemical processing, food processing, photographic, pharmaceutical, textile finishing, marine exterior trim.
