316L S31603 SUS316L stainless steel weld fittings stub end

In general, the Type 316 grade can be considered equally good in a given environment. A notable exception is intergranular corrosion in the heat-affected zone on welds and susceptible alloys in sufficiently corrosive environments. In such media, Type 316L is more suitable for welding conditions than Type 316 because the low carbon content increases resistance to intergranular corrosion.
