What is Stainless Steel 316L Powder?
316 stainless steel has more carbon in it than 316L. This is easy to remember, as the L stands for "low." But even though it has less carbon, 316L is very similar to 316 in almost every way. Cost is very similar, and both are durable, corrosion-resistant, and a good choice for high-stress situations.
The main features of Stainless Steel 316L Powder
316L stainless steel has excellent resistance to corrosion; high toughness and good ductility; moderate strength, hardenable by cold work; high resistance to oxidation at elevated temperature; low thermal conductivity; high coefficient of thermal expansion; Non-magnetic Not heat treatable; 316L stainless steel is the molybdenum that enhances corrosion resistance in environments rich in salt air and chloride - giving 316L the moniker of “marine grade” stainless steel. As long as the invisible film - or passive layer - remains intact, the metal remains stain-less and corrosion-resistant.

3D Printing Stainless Steel SS316L Powder

The applications of Stainless Steel 316L Powder
Like aluminum and titanium, stainless steel can be used to 3D print complex designs that are normally impossible to accomplish. It can also produce large objects, owing to its strength. Thanks to 3D printing technology, stainless steel is soon to be put into even more uses.
As with traditional stainless steel, 3D-printed stainless steels find applications in a wide range of areas include:
Jewelry.
Tools.
Construction applications.
Dental caps.
Metal implants.
Industrial applications – designing functional components.
Decorative models like statues, medals and keys.
Military applications.
