Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of 316L Stainless Steel Plate per kg?
316L stainless steel plate price in India is Rs. 240 to Rs. 280 per kg. The price depends on thickness, finish and the quantity ordered. Call to get a quote on current pricing.
What thicknesses are available for 316L SS Plate?
We offer 316L stainless steel plates in thicknesses from 3 mm to 100 mm. The most commonly ordered sizes are 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 25 mm.
What is the difference between 316 and 316L Stainless Steel Plate?
316 is the standard grade. 316L is the low-carbon form of 316. It has up to 0.030% carbon, versus 0.08% in standard 316. This lower carbon reduces the risk of intergranular corrosion after welding, making 316L the preferred choice for welded fabrications. Most suppliers stock dual-certified 316/316L plate.
What are the standard sizes of 316L Stainless Steel Plate?
Standard plate sizes for 316L are 1,000 by 2,000 mm, 1,220 by 2,440 mm (4′ by 8′), 1,500 by 3,000 mm, 1,500 by 6,000 mm and 2,000 by 6,000 mm. Custom cut sizes available upon request.
How to calculate the weight of 316L Stainless Steel Plate?
Weight (kg) = Thickness × Width × Length × 0.000008. The density of 316L stainless steel is 8.0 g/cm³. A 10 mm x 1,500 mm x 3,000 mm plate weighs roughly 360 kg.
What is the HS code for 316L Stainless Steel Plate?
The HS code for 316L stainless steel plate is 7219 for flat-rolled products of a width of 600 mm or more and 7220 for widths less than 600 mm. Exact subheading will depend on thickness and finish.
Is 316L Stainless Steel Plate suitable for marine applications?
Yes. 316L plate is also known as marine grade stainless steel. The molybdenum content of 2.00 to 3.00% gives good resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in saltwater and chloride rich environments.
What finishes are available for 316L Stainless Steel Plate?
We stock 316L plate in hot-rolled annealed and pickled (HRAP), 2B mill finish, #4 brushed polish, BA (bright annealed), and mirror finish. Pick the finish by application: HRAP for structural use, #4 or mirror for architectural use.
