Manufacturer of SS 316 Bright Annealed Plate
GNEE manufactures 316 stainless steel plates in strict compliance with ASTM A240 standards. The contents of chromium, nickel and molybdenum are controlled within 16.0%–18.0%, 10.0%–14.0% and 2.0%–3.0% respectively. Molybdenum boosts resistance to chloride ion erosion with reliable performance in long-term salt spray tests. Finished products feature stable mechanical properties meeting standard requirements: tensile strength ≥515 MPa, yield strength ≥205 MPa and elongation after fracture ≥40%.
Available surface finishes include 2B, polished options and more, with thickness tolerances tightly controlled within industrial standards. Every batch undergoes PMI spectral composition verification and comes with complete material test certificates plus third-party inspection reports, and custom cut-to-size processing is supported. Widely applied in highly corrosive scenarios such as chemical storage tanks, seawater desalination facilities, food & pharmaceutical equipment and coastal projects, these plates deliver low long-term wear and better overall operating cost efficiency.

Hot rolled, pickled and passivated surface without oxide scale. Features stable structural performance and high cost performance for heavy industrial applications. |
Applications of SS 316 plate
1.Food processing equipment: applied to fabricate sterilization units, sterile operating platforms and food pickling tanks. The material resists corrosion from disinfectants and meets food-grade hygiene standards.
2.Marine vessels & seawater desalination projects: suitable for deck components and heat exchange tanks of desalination systems, capable of withstanding heavy salt fog and chloride ion erosion.
3.Chemical and pharmaceutical industries: processed into acid-base storage tanks and fermentation equipment for long-term service under corrosive material working conditions.
4.Coastal building curtain walls & wastewater treatment facilities: resistant to corrosion from sea wind and sewage to extend the service life of structural parts.

Export Cases
Leveraging mature customized processing, quality control and cross-border delivery capabilities, GNEE has completed numerous benchmark supply projects of 316 stainless steel plates across multiple countries.
1.Saudi Arabia Chemical Pressure Equipment Project
We supplied ASTM A240 316 plates for acid-base storage tanks & heat exchangers. With molybdenum-enhanced chloride corrosion resistance, the sheets passed PMI batch inspection and were packed with moisture-proof layers for ocean shipping, helping cut equipment maintenance cycles.
2.Malaysia High-end Equipment Manufacturing Project
Over 200 tons of 0.7mm cold-rolled 316L sheets were delivered for food-grade sterilization units. Custom leveling & surface finishing met sanitary standards, stable bending/welding performance won repeat orders.
3.Angola Coastal Oil Tank Construction Project
Pre-cut 316 thick plates served as tank liners for coastal facilities, resisting seawater corrosion. We also delivered similar products for Kenya port tank & Tanzania water treatment projects.
Premium Packaging
We provide full customized export protective packaging for 316 stainless steel plates: each sheet is covered with PE moisture-proof protective film to stop surface scratches and stains. Stacked plates are laid with waterproof separators and secured on solid wood pallets to limit displacement and reduce bumps during long-distance transit. The outer layer is wrapped with thickened moisture-proof tarpaulin to block sea salt fog and humidity.
Packaging plans can be adjusted according to cutting dimensions and polishing processes, suiting multi-stop transshipment on ocean voyages and ensuring a stable, controllable intact arrival rate of plate surfaces.
Quality Control
Our factory manages the entire production process of 316 stainless steel plates strictly in line with ASTM A240 standards. PMI spectrometers are used to verify alloy compositions batch by batch for incoming raw materials, ensuring qualified contents of molybdenum, chromium and nickel. At the finished-product stage, we conduct spot checks on plate flatness and thickness tolerance, along with tensile and corrosion resistance mechanical tests. Complete MTC material test certificates are provided for finished goods, and third-party inspections such as SGS verification are acceptable. Full traceability covers smelting, rolling and cutting processing. We strictly control surface defects including scratches and color differences to meet stringent application requirements of chemical, food processing equipment and other scenarios.

FAQ
1.What is a 316L plate made of?
316 stainless steel plates are part of the austenitic family of stainless steel and is the most widely used varieties of stainless plate. 316 grades contain a higher level of Nickel than 304 giving it an improved corrosion resistance over 304 grades.
2.What is 316L stainless steel plate?
316L stainless steel plate is a low-carbon, molybdenum-alloyed austenitic stainless steel offering superior corrosion and pitting resistance in marine and chemical environments
3.What is the difference between 316 stainless steel and 316L?
The main difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel is carbon content. Grade 316 has a maximum carbon content of 0.08%, while 316L (the "L" stands for low carbon) limits carbon to a maximum of 0.03%.
4.What is the corrosion resistance of the 316 stainless steel plate?
The 316 stainless steel plate is highly resistant to corrosion, especially in marine and chloride-exposed environments, making it suitable for outdoor and chemical applications.
