    One of the most corrosion-resistant types of stainless steel, 316 stands up to the harshest chemicals, including bleach, chlorine, and phosphoric acid. It's a step up from 304, which has similar strength and temperature performance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications. It maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 1500° F.
    316/316L Stainless Steel—Alloyed with less carbon than standard 316, this stainless steel is easier to weld yet just as corrosion resistant and strong. It's dual certified 316 and 316L.
