Detailed Engineering Specifications

Purpose-built for heavy-duty applications, this 316 stainless steel stock sheet boasts a precise thickness of 0.209 inches, a standard length of 26 inches, and a width of 38 inches. The Grade 316 alloy provides enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides, due to its molybdenum content. This makes it an excellent choice for environments exposed to saltwater, chemicals, or high-humidity. Its smooth, consistent surface finish is critical for achieving optimal results in abrading and polishing processes, minimizing surface defects and ensuring uniform material removal. This sheet is engineered to withstand considerable mechanical stress and abrasive wear, ensuring a long service life in rigorous operational conditions.
