FAQs
What is the difference between AISI 304 and AISI 316L in a food room door?
AISI 316L contains molybdenum (2-3%), which gives it greater resistance to chloride corrosion. In installations where sodium hypochlorite is used frequently (the most common case), AISI 316L lasts longer. In installations cleaned only with citric acid or without chlorides, AISI 304 is sufficient. AISI 316L is always the preferred option in coastal areas or where salt concentrations are high.
