Type 316L Stainless Steel Properties. Type 316L stainless steel density is 0.289 lb/in3 (8.0 g/cm3); melting point is 1375-1400 °C (2500-2550 °F); 0.2% yield strength is minimum 25 ksi (170 MPa) in annealed and hot finished condition, minimum 45 ksi (310 MPa) in annealed and cold finished condition; Minimum tensile strength is 70 ksi (485 MPa
In this study, we explored the feasibility of fabricating single-crystalline or single-crystalline-like stainless steel 316L (SS316L) with different geometries (thin struts, cubes, walls and a simulated pump impeller) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). The LPBF-fabricated SS316L thin struts possessed a single-crystalline core featuring a …
Stainless Steel - Grade 316L - Properties, Fabrication and Applications (UNS S31603) Grade 316 is the standard molybdenum-bearing grade, second in importance to 304 amongst the austenitic stainless steels. The molybdenum gives 316 better overall corrosion resistant properties than Grade 304, particularly higher resistance to pitting and …
