In the market, there is a certain price difference between 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel. Generally speaking, the price of 304 stainless steel per ton is roughly between 15,000 and 20,000 yuan. For instance, the standard price of 304 stainless steel plates produced by Wuxi Stainless Steel Co., Ltd. is 15,509.00 yuan per ton, and the price of 304 stainless steel plates produced by Suzhou Stainless Steel Co., Ltd. is 15,500.00 yuan per ton, etc. (The prices are for reference only and may fluctuate due to market supply and demand, specifications and other factors.)
 
 
The price of 316 stainless steel is generally above 20,000 yuan per ton. For cold-rolled flat plates of specifications like 316L 2B 2.0 *1219 * L, the price per ton in Zhangpu is 19,800 yuan. The price of hot-rolled slab 316L NO.1 with specifications of 16.0 *1800 * 6000 by Dongte is 24,200 yuan per ton, etc. (The prices of different specifications and manufacturers may vary, and the prices are affected by many factors.)
 
 
Overall, 316 stainless steel is more expensive. This is mainly because its chemical composition contains precious metal elements such as molybdenum (Mo). The addition of these elements endows it with better corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and superior performance in some special environments. Therefore, its cost is relatively higher and the price is also more expensive. When making an actual purchase, consumers can comprehensively consider and choose the appropriate stainless steel material based on specific usage requirements, budget and other factors.
