stainless steel 316l - coil slitting 316L UNS S31603 Type 316L with .03% carbon maximum resembles
Type 316 except for its extra-low carbon. Type 316L
has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion
following stress relieving or welding. 316L will
become sensitized when exposed to service temperatures
of 800?-1650?F. When service conditions require
improved corrosion resistance where annealing is
not feasible and the welding of thicker sections
is needed, Type 316L is favored over Type 316. Abrasion
resistance is favorable.
