SS316L is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel that possesses between two and 3% molybdenum. The molybdenum content improves corrosion resistance, increases resistance to pitting in chloride ion solutions, and improves strength at high temperatures.The "L" designation simply means “less carbon.” 316L contains less carbon than 316.
