Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this 316 stainless steel stock sheet features precise dimensions of 0.913 inches thickness, 43 inches in length, and 22 inches in width. The superior corrosion resistance of 316 stainless steel, attributed to its molybdenum content, makes it the material of choice for applications exposed to aggressive media and saltwater environments, common in high-pressure hydraulic systems. This material's excellent strength-to-weight ratio and formability facilitate the creation of robust and complex hydraulic manifold blocks, pump housings, and valve bodies. Its passivation layer ensures long-term integrity and prevents pitting or crevice corrosion.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower-grade stainless steel in corrosive hydraulic environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, chemicals, or high-pressure fluids where corrosion resistance is critical.
Inadequate deburring after cutting, leading to potential fluid contamination or seal damage.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges and machined surfaces to prevent particulate generation within the hydraulic system.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Pump Housings
  • Hydraulic Valve Bodies
  • Custom Hydraulic Component Fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper handling to avoid scratches or contamination that could compromise the passivation layer.
  • Always adhere to safe machining practices when working with thick stainless steel sheets.
