Detailed Engineering Specifications

A proven choice for industrial professionals, this 0.672-inch thick, 13-inch by 46-inch 316 stainless steel stock sheet provides superior performance in harsh conditions. Its high molybdenum content (2-3%) and nickel (10-14%) make it significantly more resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion than 304 stainless steel, making it ideal for marine, chemical processing, and high-salinity environments. This sheet meets stringent industry standards for strength and longevity, ensuring reliable integration into plumbing systems, ductwork, and janitorial infrastructure where sanitation and resistance to aggressive cleaning agents are paramount.
