AISI 304 and 316 stainless steel appear the same but perform very differently depending on the surrounding environment. This is due to the differences in the chemical composition between the two grades with AISI 316 offering more resistance to corrosion due to the molybdenum content.
In line with industry guidelines, as a general rule we recommend AISI 316 for outdoor use and AISI 304 for interior projects.
