Universal 316L is the same as Alloy 316 except for the restricted carbon content. By holding the carbon content below 0.04% the chances of carbide precipitation is minimized thus protecting the corrosion resistance of the base metal. Universal 316L is used extensively in the chemical and process industries and on parts and equipment build to resist acids used in the manufacture of inks, paints, rubber, synthesized fabrics, bleaches, photographic chemicals and pulp and paper.
