Melting and Casting
Steel and alloying metals are loaded into an electric arc furnace. Once in the furnace, the metal is heated to a specific temperature above its melting point, usually in excess of 2800°F.

Stainless Steel 316L Rods have various applications across various industries thanks to their excellent corrosion resistance, low carbon content, and enhanced weldability. The medical and pharmaceutical sector is one prominent industry where Stainless Steel 316L rods are commonly used. These rods are preferred for surgical instruments, implants, and medical equipment due to their biocompatibility, resistance to corrosive bodily fluids, and ease of sterilization.
Stainless Steel, 316 and 316L wires have various applications across various industries due to their excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and versatility. One prominent industry where these wires are commonly used is the aerospace sector. Stainless Steel 316 and 316L wires find applications in aircraft components, such as wire rope assemblies, control cables, and safety wires, where high strength, durability, and corrosion resistance are crucial.
What is the difference between Stainless Steel 316 and 316L bars, rods, and wires?
The carbon content is the main difference between Stainless Steel 316 and 316L bars, rods, and wires. Stainless Steel 316 contains a higher carbon content compared to 316L. The carbon content of 316 is typically around 0.08%, while in 316L, it is lower, typically around 0.03%. This lower carbon content in 316L imparts improved weldability and resistance to sensitization, making it more suitable for welding applications. The lower carbon content in 316L also helps reduce the risk of intergranular corrosion, which can occur in certain environments.
Forming
Most cast steel is formed by hot rolling—the slab, bloom, or billet is heated and passed through large rollers, stretching out the steel into a longer, thinner form.
Heat treatment
Heat treatment strengthens rolled stainless steel by recrystallizing the deformed microstructure. Most stainless steel is heat treated by annealing.
Descaling
A rolled piece of stainless steel acquires a layer of oxidized “mill scale,” which needs to be washed away to restore a shiny surface finish.
Cutting or Machining
Stainless steel is cut to a specified shape and size. The stainless steel can be sheared with circular knives, sawed with high-speed blades, or blanked with punches.
Packaging and Delivery
To reach their destination in pristine condition, we employ careful packaging techniques.
