EN 1.4404 Stainless Steel Plate Custom Cutting SS Plate 0.4 - 60.0mm Hot Rolled Cold Rolled Steel Plate
316 stainless steel plate is a higher common use stainless steel than 304&304L, it has 2.0 to 3.0% of Molybdenum content which provides better overal corrossion resistant than 304 stainless steel. Especially in chloride environments it has great resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion.
Same with 304, 316 stainless steel plate has great forming and welding characteristics. It could be easily formed or cutted into different parts for building a lot lf machine.

Grade 316L stainless steel plate/sheet has low carbon content than 316, so 316L is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components.
Both grades are austenitic stainless steel which is one of the most widely used and versatile type of steel. As 304/304L stainless steel plates & sheets have excellent corrosion resistance, 316/316L plates have higher nickel content than 304 and 304L SS sheets giving them even better corrosion resistance especially in marine applications.
Refer to chemical composition 316 stainless steel contains element Mo, which is the reason that 316/316L has better corrosion resistance than 304/304L, especially in high temperature conditions. Therefore, engineers usually choose 316 material in high temperature environments. However, if the environment consist sulfuric acid, do not use 316/316L for high temperature, as the Molybdenum will be easily reacts to high-priced sulfur ions and form sulfides.
Type 321 SS plates are a good choice for applications where heat is an issue. 321 can be used in applications up to 900°C where 304L is normally used up to 500°C.
Hot rolling for making the medium thickness plate from 4.5mm to 100mm.
Cold rolling for making a thin cold plate thickness of 0.02 to 4mm.
In order to ensure that the mechanical properties such as yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and hardness of all kinds of stainless steel plates meet the requirements, the steel plate must be subjected to heat treatment such as annealing, solution treatment and aging treatment before delivery.
316 or 316L after normalized will be 316N or 316LN, and it provides better yield strength up to 320Mpa minimum (for thickness above 38mm).
And for thickness under 38mm, 316N yield strength minimum 550 Mpa, and Tensile strength 240 Mpa; Correspondingly 316LN miniumu YS 515 Mpa, and TS 205Mpa.
To calculate the weight of 314 stainless steel plate in kgs use the formula: length (m) x width (m) x thickness (mm) x 7.93
