316N/316LN Stainless Steel Plate

Grade: 316N/316LN

Thickness: 3.0mm-200mm

Width: 1.5m/2.0m/2.2m or as client’s requirement.

Standard: ASTM A240/A240M, JIS G4304, JISG 4305, EN 10088/3

Finish: No.1, Polished

316N and 316LN are nitrogen-enhanced austenitic stainless steels based on 316 stainless steel. Nitrogen addition improves mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, especially in chloride-containing environments. 316LN has a lower carbon content, providing improved resistance to sensitization and intergranular corrosion after welding or prolonged high-temperature exposure. These grades are widely used in nuclear, chemical, marine, and high-pressure applications.
