As a molybdenum bearing stainless, ASTM 316 stainless steel BA finish sheet is considerably more resistant to solutions of sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid than that of other austenitic grades. It has a better resistance to pitting corrosion and stress corrosion cracking in chloride solutions to that of other non molybdenum bearing stainless steel grades.
ASTM 316 stainless steel BA finish sheets are widely used in industries such as chemical, construction, aerospace and automotive. Typical applications are exhaust manifolds, heat exchangers, bellows, oil refinery equipment, marine equipment, pulp paper and textile processing equipment.
ASTM 316 is readily weldeable with most welding procedures. Oxyacetylene welding is not recommended due to possible carbon pick up in the weld area. With its lower carbon content 316L stainless is preferred to standard 316 as it can be welded without loss of corrosion resistance due to intergranular carbide precipitation. Post weld annealing is not normally required, except for service in more extreme conditions.
