316L/CF3M vs Other Valve Casting Materials
When selecting 316L stainless steel for valve castings, CF3M should be compared with other commonly used cast stainless steel grades rather than relying only on wrought-grade comparisons. CF8, CF8M, CF3M, and duplex stainless steel offer different combinations of corrosion resistance, strength, manufacturability, and cost.
