316L S31603 Z3CND17-11-02 stainless steel weld fittings stub end

Fully austenitic welds are more prone to cracking during welding. For this reason, Type 316 and Type 316L “matching” filler metals are formulated to cure with a small amount of ferrite in the microstructure to minimize cracking susceptibility.

316L is a fully austenitic stainless steel containing molybdenum. It is known for its excellent corrosion resistance (eg, pitting corrosion resistance) and mechanical properties at high and low temperatures.

One of the main differences between 316l stainless steel and 316 stainless steel is that the carbon content of the former is as high as 0.03%, and the carbon content of the latter is as high as 0.08%. These differences give them different properties. Let’s learn more about the 316l stainless steel alloy.
