The composition of this grade is a precise blend, primarily consisting of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum, with a low carbon content (as indicated by the ‘L’ for 0.03% max). This specific formulation results in outstanding corrosion resistance. Mechanically, it offers a tensile strength of around 485 MPa and a minimum yield strength of 170 MPa, providing a robust and dependable material that maintains its integrity under significant stress and within challenging environments.

SS 316L offers superior corrosion resistance compared to other stainless steels, especially in chloride-rich environments. Its low carbon content enhances its resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for harsh, marine, and chemical applications.
SS 316L hollow bars offer excellent weldability due to their low carbon content, reducing the risk of carbide precipitation. This results in stronger, more durable welds. Their corrosion resistance also ensures long-lasting performance in welded constructions exposed to harsh environments.
The versatility of these hollow bars is truly remarkable. You’ll find them forming the essential structures in chemical processing plants, serving as sturdy frames for architectural designs, and within various marine applications where saltwater is a constant. Their clean, smooth bore also makes them perfect for machinery in the food and beverage industry. Essentially, wherever a combination of high strength, corrosion resistance, and a lightweight hollow profile is needed, this material becomes an indispensable asset.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
