An alternative to stainless steel 316 sheets is stainless steel 316L sheets, where "L" stands for low carbon content. Molybdenum is added to the austenitic stainless steel alloy 316L to increase its corrosion resistance, especially in chloride-rich conditions. The 316L's low carbon content enhances weldability and lowers the chance of sensitization during welding.

For varied purposes, stainless steel 316L sheets come in a range of widths, thicknesses, and finishes. They are extensively employed in sectors like chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, food processing, and maritime.
