EN 1.4404, AISI 316L
EN 1.4404, AISI 316L is a low-carbon austenitic alloy that is highly weldable and highly resistant to intergranular corrosion.
This alloy contains molybdenum, which increases the corrosion resistancy and makes it suitable for aggressive environments such as chemical or textile manufacturing as well as equipment for the food, beverage and medical industries.

It is a low carbon alternative to AISI 316. Although these two specifications share many similar qualities and properties, AISI 316L is softer and more flexible, and offers higher levels of corrosion resistance than AISI 316.
The difference in carbon content between AISI 316 and 316L means that both specifications have different strengths and usage. AISI 316L is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry due to its superior durability when welded and high levels of resistance to corrosive chemicals, such as acids and chlorides. AISI 316 is a popular choice in chloride environments due to its strength and resistance to pitting.
Its superior performance when exposed to chemical solutions makes AISI 316L stainless steel a reliable, high-spec choice for components in several environments, including biotechnical applications and pharmaceutical tubes and fittings.

What is AISI 316L and 1.4404?
Grade 1.4404 or 316L is an austenitic stainless steel type AISI 316 which has very good corrosion resistance due to its high chromium and molybdenum content combined with a low carbon content.
What is 1.4404 stainless steel equivalent to?
Stainless steel types 1.4401 and 1.4404 are also known as grades 316 and 316L respectively.
What is AISI 316L stainless steel standard?
AISI 316 / AISI 316L, also known in German-speaking countries as "Edelstahl 1.4401/1.4404" and "V4A", is a higher-quality alloy compared to the material AISI 304 ("1.4301" and "V2A" in German-speaking countries) with added molybdenum and an increased chromium and nickel content, which means that the material has a higher resistance to corrosion.
What is the difference between 1.4404 and 1.4401 stainless steel?
Key Difference in Chemical Composition:
The primary difference is in the carbon content. 1.4404 (316L) has a lower maximum carbon content (≤ 0.03%) compared to 1.4401 (316), which has a maximum carbon content of ≤ 0.07%.
Why is it called 316L?
The designation "L" in 316L steel means that there is less carbon than in 316 steel. It is easy to remember because "L" in this context means low or low.
What is better than 316L stainless steel?
For severely corrosive conditions, 317 stainless steel alloys offer further enhanced corrosion resistance over 316/316L. The higher molybdenum and chromium composition of 317 improves resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attacks.
Is 316L steel better than titanium?
Both materials are highly durable and resistant to corrosion; however, titanium is stronger overall, while 316L stainless steel requires less maintenance over time due to its low carbon content.
What is the difference between AISI 410 and 316 stainless steel?
410 stainless steel is known for its strength and hardness and is used in applications where corrosion resistance is less important, while 316 stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance and is the first choice for harsh environment applications such as marine and chemical processing.
What is the difference between 304 and 316L?
304 stainless steel vs 316
316 contains a minimum 2.0% molybdenum which makes it much more corrosion resistant than 304 however, as it is a more expensive element, generally makes 316 a more expensive grade of metal.
Is 1.4404 the same as 316L?
Stainless steel types 1.4401 and 1.4404 are also known as grades 316 and 316L respectively. Grade 316 is an austenitic grade second only to 304 in commercial importance.
What is the major difference between SS 316 and 316L?
The most significant distinction is carbon content. 316L has a lower carbon content than 316. The "L" in an alloy's name denotes low carbon, although the rest of the alloys' compositions are nearly identical.
Which is cheaper, 316 or 316L?
Although there are elemental changes in the alloy the material could be dual certified because the changes tend to be at a very minimal level. And so the dual certified alloy will be labeled as 316/316L. Hence, the price for both these alloys would almost be similar to each other.
What is 1.4404 equivalent to?
The steel grade 1.4404 (also called ASTM 316/ 316L and ≈ SS2348) is a stainless " acid-proof" steel which is easy to machine.
Why use 316L stainless steel?
316L is the superior choice for high corrosion and high temperature applications. Since 316L contains less carbon than 316, it has better intergranular corrosion resistance, meaning its welds won't decay, unlike with 316 stainless steel.
What is the difference between AISI 304 and AISI 316L?
The difference derives from molybdenum. While grade 304 stainless steel only has trace amounts of it, AISI 316 has considerably more. Addition of molybdenum increases corrosion resistance of 316 stainless steel, especially against pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.
