RE: 316L vs 316
I would look a little harder as there is a lot of dual certified materials out there. If you can find dual certified material I would run it by his purchasing agent and project manager.

The reason for so much dual cert material is that the minimum mechanical properties for 304L and 316L were set long ago, and they are way below what is actually manufactured.
