The main difference between t304 and t316 stainless steel is the addition of molybdenum to t316. This gives t316 stainless steel significantly better corrosion resistance than t304 stainless steel. Molybdenum is particularly effective in protecting stainless steel from chloride ions, which are found in saltwater and other corrosive environments. This also makes type 316 slightly stronger than type 304.
