ASTM A240 316 Stainless Steel Plate - SHH STEEL

ASTM A240 / ASME SA240 Type 316 Stainless Steel Plate and Sheet (UNS
S31600)

1. Product Introduction
SHH STEEL (Shanghai Shenghonghe Import & Export Co., Ltd.) supplies
ASTM A240 / ASME SA240 Type 316 Stainless Steel Plate and Sheet. ASTM
A240 Type 316, also known as SS316 or UNS S31600, is a molybdenum-
bearing austenitic stainless steel and one of the most widely used
stainless steels in corrosive environments. Its 2-3% molybdenum
addition gives enhanced pitting and crevice corrosion resistance in
chloride-containing media such as seawater, de-icing salts and many
process chemicals, outperforming 304-series grades. Type 316 also
offers good strength at elevated temperatures, excellent formability
and good weldability by common fusion welding processes. It is non-
magnetic in the annealed condition and retains good toughness at low
temperatures, making it a versatile choice for demanding process and
marine duty. Typical applications include chemical processing, marine
and coastal environments, the food and beverage industry,
pharmaceutical and biotech, pulp and paper, architecture and
construction, and general industrial equipment. Available surface
finishes include No.1, 2B, 2D, BA, No.4, HL (Hairline) and 8K Mirror;
protective PVC film can be applied on one or both sides for
architectural or specific functional requirements. Product forms
available include plate, sheet, coil, strip, foil, shim, circle and
ring.

2. Standards We Can Supply
ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240 (full compliance). Dimensional tolerances and
flatness follow ASTM A480; equivalent designations: UNS S31600 / EN
1.4401 / JIS SUS 316 / GB 06Cr17Ni12Mo2. Material can also be offered
against equivalent EN, JIS and GB designations listed above.

3. Grades We Can Supply
Austenitic: 304, 304L, 304H, 304N, 304LN, 316, 316L, 321, 310S.
Duplex: 2205 (UNS S32205 / S31803). Ferritic: 430. This offer focuses
on 316; other related A240 plate grades are available on request.

4. Thickness, Width and Length Range
Thickness: 0.4 mm - 100 mm. Size: width up to 2500 mm and length up
to 12000 mm; custom sizes are available.

5. Processing
Steel cutting services (shearing, precision plasma, laser or waterjet
cutting), slitting, leveling and cut-to-length, steel bending and
forming, steel welding, CNC steel machining and stainless surface
finishing / polishing (No.4, HL, 8K mirror). Edge conditions include
mill edge, slit edge, sheared edge or plasma/laser cut edge according
to customer preference. Width tolerance is typically +6 mm / 0 mm and
length tolerance for cut-to-length material is normally +10 mm / 0
mm; improved flatness and tighter tolerances can be arranged for
precision fabrication.

6. Delivery Time
Stock material: 5-6 days. Normal production orders: 30-40 days.

7. Payment Terms
T/T and L/C accepted; specific payment terms are negotiated per
order.

8. Trade Terms
FOB / CIF / CFR.

9. Delivery Condition
Hot rolled (No.1, heavy plate) and cold rolled (2B/BA, sheet),
supplied in the solution-annealed condition.

10. Quality Assurance
Mill test certificate supplied with every shipment (global export
with full MTCs). Chemical composition and mechanical properties
conform to ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240.
