JPS Metal & Alloys supplies SS 316 / 316L round bar ex-stock Mumbai to ASTM A276 / A479, UNS S31600 / S31603 — international equivalents, composition, mechanical properties and applications below.
As a specialty stainless steel round bar exporter in India, JPS Metal & Alloys stocks SS 316 / 316L ex-Mumbai for both domestic supply and export via Nhava Sheva (JNPT). The added molybdenum in 316 over 304 gives markedly better resistance to chlorides and pitting — the reason it is the default choice for marine and coastal projects.
