Stainless Steel 316L Sheets Supplier in Mumbai, India – Palgotta Metal Pvt Ltd
Palgotta Metal Pvt Ltd is a leading stockist and supplier of Stainless Steel 316L Sheets in Mumbai, India. We supply high-quality ASTM A240 TP316L Sheets available in a variety of surface finishes including hot rolled (HR), cold rolled (CR), and perforated types. SS 316L is widely used in demanding environments due to its exceptional corrosion resistance, low carbon content, and weldability.
What is SS 316L Sheet?
Stainless Steel 316L Sheet is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel alloy with the addition of molybdenum (2–3%) and a low carbon content (max 0.03%). This enhances its resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride-induced corrosion, while also preventing carbide precipitation during welding, which makes it ideal for welded applications in aggressive environments.
