Stainless Steel Flat Bar 316/316L (True Bar)

Type 316/316L stainless is 304/304L modified with the addition of Molybdenum. This addition gives 316/316L better corrosion resistance in salt and seawater while improving strength at elevated temperatures. Increase in hardness and strength can be achieved by cold working. True bar implies a rolled bar product as opposed to being cut from sheet steel.
