Typical Selection Preferred for marine, chemical, pharmaceutical and offshore applications Preferred for food, architectural, appliance and general fabrication applications

SS 316 2B Finish Strip

SS 316 2B Finish Strip contains around 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and 2–3% molybdenum, giving it excellent resistance to pitting and corrosion. It is a preferred choice for marine, offshore, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other demanding applications where exposure to saltwater, chemicals, or moisture is common.

SS 304 2B Finish Strip

SS 304 2B Finish Strip contains around 18–20% chromium and 8–10.5% nickel, providing good corrosion resistance, strength, and formability. It is widely used for food processing equipment, kitchenware, architectural components, appliances, and general industrial applications where extreme corrosion resistance is not required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is SS 316 2B Finish Strip used for?

SS 316 2B Finish Strip is commonly used in marine equipment, chemical processing, pharmaceutical machinery, food processing, offshore systems, water treatment, and industrial fabrication where higher corrosion resistance is required.

Q: What is the difference between SS 316 2B Strip and SS 316 BA Strip?

The main difference is the surface finish. SS 316 2B Strip has a smooth, uniform cold-rolled finish, while SS 316 BA Strip has a brighter and more reflective surface produced through bright annealing.

Q: What makes SS 316 2B Finish Strip suitable for marine applications?

SS 316 contains around 2–3% molybdenum, which improves its resistance to pitting and corrosion caused by chlorides and saltwater. This makes it suitable for many marine and offshore applications.

Q: Is SS 316 2B Finish Strip suitable for chemical processing?

Yes. Grade 316 provides good resistance to many chemicals and corrosive environments, making it suitable for chemical processing equipment, tanks, supports, and fabricated components.
