Type 316 - Supply ranges from 6mm up to 150mm

 

316 Stainless steel is a multi-purpose material and is part of the austenitic stainless steel family. The Type 316 group has a superior resistance to 304 Stainless. The main difference between Types 304 and 316 is that Type 304 has a higher percentage of Chromium, lower percentage of Nickel and has no traces of Molybdenum whereas Type 316 has 2%.Where 304 & 304H differ is that Type 304H has a higher carbon content which gives it a slight edge on 304 when good mechanical properties are needed at elevated temperature environments.

Type 321 - Supply ranges from 6mm up to 100mm

​

321 Stainless material is extremely similar to Type 304 with the addition of Titanium. The addition of the Titanium improves the elevated temperature properties of the alloy.
