Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 316 stainless steel sheet measures 0.544 inches in thickness, with a nominal length of 14 inches and a width of 25 inches. Composed of a chromium-nickel alloy with molybdenum, it exhibits excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, particularly in chloride-containing environments. This makes it highly suitable for marine, chemical processing, and food service applications where aggressive media are present. The inherent strength and formability of 316 stainless steel allow for intricate fabrication and long service life under abrasive stress and polishing operations.
