Detailed Engineering Specifications

Specified by design engineers worldwide, this 0.246" thick, 22" long by 13" wide stock sheet is fabricated from premium 316 stainless steel. Its enhanced molybdenum content provides exceptional resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, even in aggressive chloride-laden environments. This material's high tensile strength and ductility ensure reliable performance under significant hydraulic pressures, preventing premature failure in seals, manifolds, and structural elements. Its non-magnetic properties also contribute to its suitability in sensitive fluid power systems.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower grade stainless steel in corrosive hydraulic fluid environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for its superior resistance to chloride attack and acidic conditions common in many hydraulic fluids.
Inadequate surface preparation before machining or welding.Thoroughly clean the 316 stainless steel stock sheet to prevent contamination and ensure the integrity of subsequent manufacturing processes.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifolds
  • Pressure Vessels
  • Pump Housings
  • Valve Bodies

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid scratching or damaging the surface, as this can compromise corrosion resistance.
  • Ensure compatibility of any joining or welding consumables with 316 stainless steel to maintain material integrity.
