SUS316L

2 source records. Standards, editions and conditions are presented separately; matching grade names do not establish interchangeability.

Refer to each source for mass fractions and analysis type. Missing values are not treated as 0. Manufacturer typical values, standard guarantees and measured heat results must remain separate. Use the material selector for calculations and condition selection.

Applicability and limitations

JIS G 4308:1998: main-text Table 1 in the scanned Japanese original lists SUS316L; main-text Table 2 gives heat analysis, mass fraction %. This edition covers stainless steel wire. The reference suffix -WR does not create another default grade. Standard wire diameters are given in Table 6; product-analysis deviations under clause 4.2 require separate verification. Cold-heading suitability, stocked sizes and supply by our company are not automatically established.

Verification notes

Line-by-line visual check of Table 1 and Tables 2–5 in the 1998 scanned Japanese original; footnote conditions are kept separate from the default composition.

Applicability and limitations

A match in the materials database does not establish suitability for cold heading or guarantee finished-product strength. Confirmation must consider wire condition, deformation, heat treatment and tests on actual parts.
