316 Stainless Steel Plate

Introduction of 316 Stainless Steel Plate

316 stainless steel, also known as marine-grade stainless steel, is a popular austenitic stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance properties, especially against chloride environments that could lead to pitting and crevice corrosion. The addition of molybdenum (Mo) enhances its corrosion resistance and improves its strength at elevated temperatures.

Do You Know What Is SS 316 Sheet Price Per Kg?

Generally, it is around ₹ 228/kg. Depending on the particular alloy, the SS 316l Plate Density ranges between 7500 kg/m3 to 8000 kg/m3 As the global market becomes more competitive, finding the right price per kg for SS 316 sheets can be difficult. Typically, the price per kg for SS 316 Sheet ranges from INR 228 to INR 280. However, depending on the supplier and size requirements, the cost can vary significantly. Notably, many suppliers are willing to offer significant discounts for bulk orders. Hence, to ensure you get the best 316 Stainless Steel Plate Price, it is important to compare prices from multiple suppliers before finalizing your purchase. Additionally, there are many different grades available, including those designed specifically for certain industries and applications, which can make the cost per kg even higher, so choosing the right grade is important.

Possible alternative grades to 316 stainless steel

Grade Why it might be chosen instead of 316?
316Ti Better resistance to temperatures of around 600-900°C is needed.
316N Higher strength than standard 316.
317L Higher resistance to chlorides than 316L, but with similar resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
904L Much higher resistance to chlorides at elevated temperatures, with good formability
2205 Much higher resistance to chlorides at elevated temperatures, and higher strength than 316
