🔧 Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material Grade: 316L (Low Carbon) – Excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding, ideal for heavy gauge welding sections.
- Diameter: 10mm (±0.2mm tolerance) – Precision-drawn surface for consistent welding performance.
- Length: 2 meters (2000mm) – Cut-to-length for easy handling, no need for additional cutting on most projects.
- Surface Finish: No.1 (Hot Rolled, Annealed, Pickled) – Matte, uniform surface that enhances weld bead adhesion and reduces post-weld cleaning.
- Hot Rolled Process: Ensures fine grain structure, improved mechanical properties, and excellent ductility for welding.
- Weldability: Low carbon content (max 0.03%) minimizes carbide precipitation, making it suitable for welding without post-weld heat treatment.
- Corrosion Resistance: High resistance to chlorides, acids, and harsh environments – perfect for marine, chemical, and food processing.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel rod?
A: 316L has a lower carbon content (max 0.03%) compared to 316 (max 0.08%). This reduces the risk of intergranular corrosion after welding, making 316L preferred for welded structures where post-weld heat treatment is not possible. -
Q: Can I use this rod for TIG welding?
A: Yes, the 10mm diameter, 2m length, and No.1 finish are suitable for TIG (GTAW) welding, as well as MIG and stick welding. The smooth surface ensures good arc stability. -
Q: What is the tolerance on the diameter?
A: Our standard tolerance is ±0.2mm for the 10mm diameter. For tighter tolerances, please contact us for custom orders. -
Q: Is this rod suitable for marine environments?
A: Absolutely. 316L stainless steel offers excellent resistance to chloride-induced pitting and crevice corrosion, making it ideal for marine applications such as boat fittings, offshore platforms, and coastal structures. -
Q: Do you offer different lengths or surface finishes?
A: Yes, we can provide custom lengths (e.g., 1m, 3m, 6m) and other finishes (bright drawn, polished) upon request. Minimum order quantities may apply. -
Q: How is the product packaged for export?
A: Each rod is bundled with plastic caps on ends to protect threads (if applicable) and wrapped in waterproof paper, then packed in wooden crates or steel pallets for safe ocean/air freight. -
Q: What certifications do you have?
A: Our factory is ISO9001 certified. We can provide mill test certificates (MTC) as per EN 10204 3.1 for each batch upon request. -
Q: Can I get a sample before placing a large order?
A: Yes, we offer sample orders. Please contact our sales team for pricing and shipping arrangements.
