316/316L Stainless
The carbon content of 316 stainless steel is higher than that of 316L stainless steel.
Because the letter L stands for “low,” it’s simple to remember. 316L, on the other hand, is nearly identical to 316 in virtually every respect, except the presence of less carbon. Overall, both are strong, corrosion-resistant, and a good choice for high-stress applications, and they are about the same price as they are similar.
