Stainless Steel 316L Bars and Rods are a low-carbon, molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel, featuring around 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, and 2-3% molybdenum. The low carbon content helps reduce carbide precipitation during welding, which boosts corrosion resistance. These bars and rods offer impressive tensile strength of about 485 MPa, a yield strength of around 170 MPa, and an elongation of 40%. They also maintain excellent toughness and formability, even in cryogenic conditions, ensuring reliable performance in chloride-rich and corrosive environments.
