AISI 316 vs 316L Stainless Steel
The chemical composition is the main difference between AISI 316 and 316L Stainless Steel. AISI 316L contains a lower carbon content than AISI 316. As a result, AISI 316L has a higher corrosion resistance than AISI 316. Additionally, the weldability of AISI 316L is better than that of AISI 316.
