Stainless steel channel steel is a type of steel made of stainless steel with a groove shaped cross-section. Its cross-sectional shape is groove shaped. It is divided into two types: ordinary channel steel and lightweight channel steel. The model and specification are usually expressed in millimeters as waist height (h) x leg width (b) x waist thickness (d). For example, 120 × 53 × 5 channel steel represents a channel steel with a waist height of 120 millimeters, leg width of 53 millimeters, and waist thickness of 5 millimeters, also known as 12 # channel steel. For channel steel with the same waist height, if there are several different leg widths and waist thicknesses, a, b, c, etc. need to be added on the right side of the model to distinguish them, such as 25A #, 25B #, 25c #, etc. The specification range of channel steel is 5-40 #.

Corrosion resistance: Stainless steel channel steel can stably exhibit excellent corrosion resistance in air or chemical media, and is therefore widely used in humid and highly corrosive environments.

High strength: Stainless steel channel steel has high strength and can withstand large loads, making it suitable for various load-bearing components and connectors.

Beautiful and elegant: Stainless steel channel steel has a smooth surface, is not easy to contaminate, is very hygienic to use, and has a good appearance effect.

Long service life: Stainless steel channel steel has a long service life and can meet the needs of various complex environments.

After 304, 316 Stainless Steel is the most common stainless steel on the market. Again it is an austenitic grade with the addition of 2-3% molybdenum which further improves corrosion resistance. It is often referred to as a marine grade stainless steel because of its effective resistance to chloride corrosion in comparison to other stainless steel grades. The material has superior welding and forming qualities. Grade 316 will require post-weld annealing to promote maximum corrosion resistance, though this is not necessary if Type 316L is used.

Grade 316 is the standard molybdenum-bearing grade, second in importance to 304 amongst the austenitic stainless steels. The molybdenum gives 316 better overall corrosion resistant properties than Grade 304, particularly higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments. It has excellent forming and welding characteristics. It is readily brake or roll formed into a variety of parts for applications in the industrial, architectural, and transportation fields. Grade 316 also has outstanding welding characteristics. Post-weld annealing is not required when welding thin sections.

Grade 316L, the low carbon version of 316 and is immune from sensitisation (grain boundary carbide precipitation). Thus it is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components (over about 6mm). Grade 316H, with its higher carbon content has application at elevated temperatures, as does stabilized grade 316Ti.
