Why 316 Stainless Steel?
Grade 316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which dramatically improves resistance to chlorides and saltwater corrosion compared to standard 304 stainless steel. This makes it the preferred choice for marine hardware, outdoor fixtures, and environments exposed to moisture and salt air.
