At Mitchell Stainless in Hamilton, New Zealand, we provide stainless steel bars designed for durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance. Our Stainless Steel 316L Bars are a low-carbon version of 316, specifically engineered to minimise carbide precipitation during welding while maintaining excellent corrosion resistance. Ideal for chemical, marine, and food processing applications, these bars deliver reliable performance in harsh environments. Backed by Mitchell Stainless’ local expertise and commitment to quality, 316L bars provide customers with durable, corrosion-resistant, and weldable materials suitable for demanding industrial, marine, and engineering projects.
Stainless Steel 316L Bars are manufactured from a low-carbon austenitic stainless steel alloy containing chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. The molybdenum enhances resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, especially in chloride-rich and aggressive environments. The low carbon content reduces the risk of carbide precipitation during welding, preserving corrosion resistance and structural integrity. These bars offer excellent tensile strength, toughness, and oxidation resistance across a wide temperature range, performing reliably in chemical, marine, and industrial applications.
