Marine Grade ASTM 316L Round Bar Chloride Resistant For Offshore & Seawater Equipment
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer in Wuxi, China, Wuxi Yansheng Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in producing high-quality marine grade ASTM 316L round bars designed specifically for offshore and seawater equipment. Our 316L round bars offer exceptional chloride resistance, making them the ideal choice for harsh marine environments where corrosion is a constant threat. With over 7 years of experience and an annual export value exceeding US$50 million, we are committed to delivering reliable, durable, and compliant stainless steel products that meet the rigorous demands of global industries.
Product Features & Technical Specifications
Our ASTM 316L round bars are manufactured from low-carbon austenitic stainless steel, which provides superior resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding and heat treatment. The molybdenum content (2-3%) significantly enhances resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich environments, such as seawater, brine, and coastal atmospheres. Below are key technical parameters:
| Standard | ASTM A276 / A479, ASME SA276 / SA479 |
| Grade | 316L (UNS S31603) |
| Diameter Range | 6mm – 300mm (custom sizes available) |
| Length | 1m – 12m (cut-to-length option) |
| Surface Finish | Bright, Black, Pickled, Polished (No.4, 2B, etc.) |
| Tensile Strength | Min. 485 MPa |
| Yield Strength | Min. 170 MPa |
| Elongation | Min. 40% |
| Hardness | Max. 217 HBW |
| Corrosion Resistance | Excellent in chloride environments (PREN ≥ 24) |
