Stainless Steels
Austenitic
SUS316L | Austenitic Stainless Steel
Overview & Features
This grade is difficult to find sources due to low volume in circulation among general-purpose stainless steels, but we can supply it in foils, special dimension, and small lots.
*The "L" in SUS316L stands for low carbon.
Examples of Applications
Vibration Motors/Haptics, Camera Module, FPC, Fuel Cell, Syringe Needles, Indwelling Needles, Bellows, Diaphragmss, Micro Pumps, Stent
Available Shapes

Mechanical Properties
The table below shows approximate values of mechanical properties for annealed finish and full hardened finish.
We can manufacture products in the desired hardness (finish) between annealed finish and full hardened finish, but some finishes may not be available depending on the plate thickness, so please contact us first.
*For ultra-thin foil, soft materials such as annealed or 2B finish may not be applicable due to concerns about defects (folding, wrinkling, etc.).

This is a steel grade in which the nickel content of SUS 304, a representative austenitic stainless steel grade, is increased and molybdenum is added to further improve corrosion resistance.
Non-magnetic Stainless Steels
Stainless steels that are not easily magnetized when a magnetic field is applied is called "non-magnetic stainless steel”.
Stainless Steels Foils (Under t0.10mm)
We offer not only thin stainless steel foils, but also propose the appropriate steel grade and temper depending on specific application and use requirements, such as strength, workablility, magnetism, and corrosion resistance.
