Their 316/316L stainless steel channels are celebrated for their impressive corrosion resistance and strength, making them perfect for tough environments. By blending cutting-edge manufacturing techniques with dependable supply chains, Ed Stainless delivers tailored solutions that efficiently and cost-effectively meet the needs of clients across Houston and beyond.
The composition of Stainless Steel 316/316L channels includes iron, 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, and 2-3% molybdenum, all of which enhance their corrosion resistance. The “L” grade signifies a lower carbon content, which boosts weldability and minimizes carbide precipitation. In terms of mechanical properties, these channels boast a tensile strength of around 75,000 psi, a yield strength of about 30,000 psi, and an elongation of nearly 40%. They are known for their excellent toughness, high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, and stability at elevated temperatures, making them ideal for harsh environments that demand long-lasting durability and structural integrity.
