| Feature | SS 316 2B Finish Strip (UNS S31600) | SS 304 2B Finish Strip (UNS S30400) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Advantage | Excellent resistance to chloride, marine and chemical environments | Good all-round corrosion resistance for general applications |
| Alloy Composition | 16–18% Cr, 10–14% Ni, 2–3% Mo | 18–20% Cr, 8–10.5% Ni |
| Corrosion Resistance | Excellent for marine, chloride, acidic and demanding environments | Suitable for indoor, atmospheric and mild chemical environments |
| Cost & Budget | Higher-cost option for demanding applications | More economical choice for general-purpose use |
| Yield Strength (0.2%) | 30 ksi (205 MPa) min | 25 ksi (170 MPa) min |
| Pitting Resistance | Higher resistance in chloride-rich environments | Good resistance for general industrial conditions |
| Typical Selection | Preferred for marine, chemical, pharmaceutical and offshore applications | Preferred for food, architectural, appliance and general fabrication applications |
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 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.
Nirvaan Overseas supplies certified material with complete export documentation to key international markets for marine, chemical, and energy projects.

Every order dispatched from our ISO-certified processing facilities undergoes strict quality verification by experienced QA inspectors:
| Inspection Stage | Testing & Compliance Standard |
|---|---|
| Dimensional Checks | Calibrated Micrometer & Vernier Caliper verification for exact strip thickness, slit width, and camber tolerances. |
| PMI & Chemical Testing | 100% In-House XRF Spectro testing to verify exact grade heat chemistry before dispatch. |
| NDT & Defect Checks | Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and optical surface inspection to guarantee zero edge burrs, cracks, or laminations. |
| MTC & Lab Reports | Full EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 MTC issued alongside NABL-accredited laboratory test reports. |
| Third-Party Inspection | Fully open for pre-dispatch TPI by SGS, TUV, Bureau Veritas, DNV, or Lloyds. |
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.
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.
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.
Yes. Grade 316 provides good resistance to many chemicals and corrosive environments, making it suitable for chemical processing equipment, tanks, supports, and fabricated components.
