Boys for a Marine type fuel tank what grade of stainless steel you will go for?
I thought myself for a 316L 1.5mm sheet.Baffled of course!

I'm guessing probably because most people wouldn't know the difference... the magnetic grades are 'poor quality', 304 is 'good' stainless, 316 is 'marine grade'. I don't buy enough stainless to be sure but most 304 and 316 is 'dual designation' i.e. 304/304L these days i think. Or at least the standard in that unless you specifically ask for an H grade etc you'll get a low carbon flavourIt just states 316 and no 316L (low Carbon) any idea why that?
