Corrosion Resistance:

This quality, which is quite sufficient for daily use and standard productions,corrosiveIt is not preferred because it will rust in environments. In more demanding conditions, 316, 316L, 316Ti or duplex (1.4462) grade stainless steel should be preferred instead of 304 grade stainless steel.

Mechanical Properties:

This stainless steel quality, which is often sufficient in terms of mechanical strength, is not preferred where high yield and rupture strength is required. When mechanical properties come to the fore, the materialin structureconsidering,

Tendency to Forge:

This quality material has a standard malleability. MetaltattooextremeIt should not be preferred in densely populated areas.

Sourcefeasibility:

Plain 304 quality stainless steel is an ideal material for places where there is no excessive welding. In places where the weld is more intense, the lower carbon (L=low carbon) 304L quality material should be preferred.

Machinability:

MachinabilityThis material, which is not bad in terms of health, is not preferred in places where processing is intense. 304 quality stainless steel is less preferred, especially in lathes and machining centers, as it wraps chips. In places where this type of process is intense, 303 quality stainless steel, which is the automatic version of 304, should be preferred.

Summary of Quality Characteristics 

316 stainless according to EN standard1.4401grade is numbered as stainless.

316 quality stainless is also ENto the standardaccording to X5CrNiMo17-12-2as wellis named.

316 and 316L quality stainless 304 quality in the worldwith stainlessIt is one of the most widely used stainless steel grades.

This stainless qualityestheniticIt belongs to the stainless steel class.

Materials of this stainless steel grade can be well formed and welded well.

Stainless steels of this quality do not attract magnets and have a high corrosion resistance.

Corrosion resistance of 316 grade stainless steel, 304 gradestainlessbetter than.

General features

Explanation

Corrosion Resistance:

The corrosion resistance of this material is quite good. In harsher environments, 316Ti or duplex (1.4462) quality material should be preferred.

Mechanical Properties:

316 quality material shows mechanical properties similar to 304 quality material. For higher strength, 431, duplex (1.4462) or 630 (1.4542 PH17.4) can be preferred.

Tendency to Forge:

This grade of stainless steel has a good malleability tendency.

Sourcefeasibility:

this qualityof stainlesssourcefeasibilityis good. In environments with more welding, 316L or 316Ti quality stainless should be preferred.

Machinability:

In environments where corrosion resistance is insignificant, 303 or 430F quality stainless steel products may be preferred.
