316L Stainless Steel

Austenitic and surgical-grade steel

316L Stainless Steel is known for its corrosion resistance and performance at high and low temperatures. It is an austenitic steel with excellent mechanical properties. Besides applications in heavy industries, this metal alloy is also used in the medical industry as it is surgical-grade steel.

Mass-production throughput

for parts used in harsh environments

316L Stainless Steel is ideal for harsh environment applications, such as parts used in oil & gas, energy, petrochemicals, marine, or for medical devices and surgical tools. The austenitic steel and the binder jetting systems P1 or P-50, are the perfect combinations for mass production throughput so that you don’t have to sacrifice part performance and repeatability.
