317L

SS 317L is a low-carbon, molybdenum-alloyed austenitic stainless steel that offers enhanced resistance to corrosion compared to other stainless steels like SS 304 and SS 316. The addition of molybdenum (Mo) in SS 317L significantly improves its resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and general corrosion in harsh environments. The "L" in SS 317L indicates the low carbon content (≤ 0.03%), which helps to reduce the risk of sensitization and carbide precipitation, making it suitable for welding applications.
