316 in Sheet Metal Fabrication
316 stainless steel is an austenitic alloy containing molybdenum for excellent corrosion resistance and formability. It is highly weldable and well suited to marine, chloride-rich, and chemical processing environments.
- Marine performance: 316 suits boat fittings and marine equipment.
- Chemical resistance: Molybdenum supports corrosion resistance in chemical processing environments.
- Weldable and formable: 316 works well for fabricated components and welded assemblies.
Selection note: RapidDirect cuts, bends, forms, welds, and assembles stainless steel sheets into parts with a clean appearance and durable corrosion resistance.
