2. Marine grade stainless - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_grade_stainless

   SAE 316 stainless steel is a molybdenum-alloyed steel and the second most common austenitic stainless steel (after grade 304). It is the preferred steel for use in marine environments because of its greater resistance to pitting corrosion than most other grades of steel without molybdenum. [ 1 ]

3. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

   Type 316—the second most common grade (after 304); for food and surgical stainless steel uses; alloy addition of molybdenum prevents specific forms of corrosion. It is also known as marine grade stainless steel due to its increased resistance to chloride corrosion compared to type 304. 316 is often used for building nuclear reprocessing plants.

4. SAE 304 stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_304_stainless_steel

   For more severe corrosion conditions, when 304 stainless steel is too sensitive to pitting or crevice corrosion by chlorides or general corrosion in acidic applications, it is commonly replaced by 316 stainless steel. 304 and 302 stainless steels are subject to chloride stress fracture failure when used in tropical salt water conditions such as ...

5. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), or rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5% or more chromium content, which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...

6. Duplex stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_Stainless_Steel

   They provide better corrosion resistance, particularly chloride stress corrosion and chloride pitting corrosion, and higher strength than standard austenitic stainless steels such as A2/304 or A4/316. The main differences in composition, when compared with austenitic stainless steel is that duplex steels have a higher chromium content, 20–28% ...

7. SAE 316L stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_316L_stainless_steel

   SAE 316L grade stainless steel, sometimes referred to as A4 stainless steel or marine grade stainless steel, is the second most common austenitic stainless steel after 304/A2 stainless steel. Its primary alloying constituents after iron , are chromium (between 16–18%), nickel (10–12%) and molybdenum (2–3%), up to 2% manganese , [ 1 ] with ...
