Frequently Asked Questions

What ASTM standards cover 316 stainless steel plate?

ASTM A240/A240M is the primary standard specification for chromium and chromium-nickel stainless steel plate, sheet, and strip for pressure vessels and general applications, including 316 and 316L grades.

What is the difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel plate?

316L is the low-carbon version of 316 stainless steel, containing a maximum of 0.03% carbon compared to 0.08% in standard 316. This reduced carbon content enhances weldability and reduces carbide precipitation during welding.

What plate thicknesses are available in 316 stainless steel?

We supply 316 stainless steel plates in a wide range of thicknesses from thin sheet (under 0.188") to heavy plate (over 0.250"), with custom cutting and sizing services available for your specific requirements.

Do you provide mill test certificates with ASTM plate orders?

Yes, all ASTM standard 316 stainless steel plate materials come with complete mill test reports (MTRs) documenting chemical composition, mechanical properties, and heat treatment certification as required by specification.

What surface finishes are available for 316 plate?

We offer 316 stainless steel plate in various finishes including hot rolled, cold rolled, 2B (smooth, bright finish), and No. 1 finish, as well as custom surface finishing services to meet your application requirements.

Can you provide plates that meet both ASTM and AMS specifications?

Yes, we stock materials that comply with multiple standards including both ASTM A240 and various AMS specifications (such as AMS 5507, AMS 5524) to meet aerospace and commercial requirements simultaneously.

What quality certifications does your facility maintain?

Our facility is ISO 9001 and AS 9100 certified, ensuring the highest quality standards for aerospace and industrial applications requiring certified manufacturing, distribution, and traceability of all materials.
