SUS316LN Stainless Steel Bright Round Bars

316LN (UNS S31653) stainless is a low-carbon, nitrogen-enhanced version of Type 316

molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel. It is also known as EN 1.4406, DIN X2CrNiMoN17-11-2.

Type 316 alloys are more resistant to general corrosion and pitting/crevice corrosion than the

conventional chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels such as stainless 304.

They also offer higher creep, stress-rupture and tensile strength at elevated temperature.

316 stainless steel can be susceptible to sensitization – the formation of grain boundary chromium

carbides at temperatures between approximately 900 and 1500°F (425 to 815°C) –

which can result in rapid corrosion.

Reduced carbon 316L alloy is resistant to sensitization; however, extended exposures in this temperature

range will eventually result in sensitization of even the low carbon grade.

The nitrogen in 316LN stainless adds additional resistance to sensitization in some circumstances.

The nitrogen content of 316LN stainless steel also provides some solid solution hardening,

raising its minimum specified yield strength compared to 316L stainless steel.

Like 316L stainless, the 316LN stainless alloy also offers excellent resistance to general corrosion

and pitting, crevice corrosion.
