Nakamura Stainless, a reputable manufacturer and supplier based in Pulau Ujong, Singapore, has built a solid reputation for providing top-notch stainless steel products that adhere to international quality standards. Among their extensive offerings, **Stainless Steel 316/316L Sheet and Plates** stand out for their exceptional corrosion resistance, durability, and adaptability in challenging environments. Thanks to the addition of molybdenum, these grades boast enhanced resistance to chlorides and acidic conditions. The low carbon content in 316L not only improves weldability but also reduces the risk of carbide precipitation. Nakamura Stainless is committed to delivering precision, durability, and timely service, catering to industries like marine, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.
**Stainless Steel 316/316L Sheet and Plates** are austenitic stainless steels that contain 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and 2–3% molybdenum, along with traces of carbon, manganese, and silicon. The addition of molybdenum significantly boosts resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, especially in environments rich in chlorides. Grade 316 is known for its high tensile and creep strength, while 316L, with its lower carbon content, offers better weldability and resistance to intergranular corrosion. Their mechanical properties include a tensile strength of around 515 MPa, yield strength of about 205 MPa, and elongation of up to 40%, ensuring they remain durable, tough, and stable even under high-stress conditions.
