AISI 304 and AISI 304L Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes
AISI 304 is the most commonly used austenitic stainless steel, known for its good corrosion resistance and formability. AISI 304L is a lower carbon variant of AISI 304, which minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, enhancing its corrosion resistance in welded structures.
Specifications for AISI 304/304L
| Grade | Chromium | Nickel | Carbon | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AISI 304 | 18–20% | 8–12% | ≤0.08% | Food processing equipment, architectural trim, chemical containers |
| AISI 304L | 18–20% | 8–12% | ≤0.03% | Welded assemblies, chemical industry, pharmaceutical equipment |
AISI 316 and AISI 316L Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes
AISI 316 contains molybdenum which increases its corrosion resistance against chlorides and other industrial solvents. AISI 316L is the low-carbon version of AISI 316, providing better weldability and minimizing corrosion in welded joints.
Specifications for AISI 316/316L
| Grade | Chromium | Nickel | Molybdenum | Carbon | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AISI 316 | 16–18% | 10–14% | 2–3% | ≤0.08% | Marine environments, chemical processing, pharmaceutical industries |
| AISI 316L | 16–18% | 10–14% | 2–3% | ≤0.03% | Process pipelines, surgical instruments, heat exchangers |

FAQ
AISI 304L has a lower carbon content compared to AISI 304, which helps in reducing carbide precipitation during welding. This makes it better suited for welded structures with high corrosion resistance, especially in environments that could cause intergranular corrosion.
AISI 316 stainless steel includes molybdenum, which enhances its resistance to chlorides, making it highly suitable for marine and highly corrosive industrial atmospheres where greater resistance to pitting and chloride ion corrosion is required.
Yes, AISI 316L stainless steel is an excellent choice for outdoor applications due to its superior corrosion resistance to a wide range of chemicals and marine atmospheres. Its low carbon content also ensures better weldability and overall corrosion resistance, making it ideal for structures exposed to the elements.
Absolutely, both AISI 304 and AISI 316 are commonly used in sanitary applications due to their excellent corrosion resistance and easy cleaning ability. AISI 316, with its superior resistance to acids and chlorides, is particularly recommended for environments exposed to harsher cleaning chemicals or salt exposure.
Stainless steel has a minimum chromium content of 10.5%, as well as low levels of carbon (less than 1.2%) and other alloys. By adding other elements like nickel, molybdenum, titanium, niobium, manganese, etc., the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of stainless steel can be improved even further.
There are several grades of stainless steel sheets available, with some of the most common being 304, 316, 430, and 409. 304 is a widely used austenitic stainless steel with good corrosion resistance and formability.
Stainless steel sheets from Omsteel have a wide range of applications, including in the construction industry for cladding, roofing, and structural components, in the automotive industry for exhaust systems and trim, in the food processing and medical industries for equipment and utensils, and in the aerospace industry for structural components and aircraft exhaust systems.
