1️⃣, 316 has a higher carbon content, excellent tensile strength, and high strength, but it is easy to cause intergranular corrosion.
2️⃣, 316L has a lower strength than 316 and is easier to process.
3️⃣, 316 stainless steel welded sections require post-weld annealing, while 316L stainless steel does not require it.
4️⃣, 316L has stronger corrosion resistance and better anti-rust and anti-corrosion performance.
