Why do most of your products say 316 rather than 316L?

Because that is what we can support. Supplier listings often print 316L without evidence behind it, so we publish the more specific grade only when the factory confirms it and we publish 316 otherwise. We would rather understate a grade than print one we cannot stand behind.

Can I order a single piece to check the material before buying in bulk?

Yes. Eligible ready-stock products can be ordered from 1 piece, with no minimum. Per-piece prices step down at 3 and 10 pieces, and custom programme minimums are quoted from the brief.

Is 316L stainless steel jewellery hypoallergenic or nickel-free?

No — both 316 and 316L contain nickel, so neither is nickel-free, and we make no hypoallergenic or nickel-release claim for the catalogue. If your market requires a nickel-release result or another test, tell us the standard and the SKU so testing can be scoped and quoted for that specific programme.

Do you supply 316L jewellery for private-label and OEM programmes?

Yes. OEM/ODM and private-label programmes start from a written brief and a sample. Material grade, finish, packaging, testing requirements, lead time and minimums are confirmed for the programme before bulk production begins.

Stainless steel wholesale

316L Stainless Steel Jewelry Wholesale

Wholesale 316L stainless steel jewelry for boutiques, retailers and independent brands, factory-direct from 1 piece. 316 and 316L are different grades, so we treat them differently: a product is listed as 316L only where the grade was confirmed with the factory, and every product page states the grade for that specific SKU.

Sourcing notes

How we decide whether a product is listed as 316L

316 and 316L are separate grades, and we keep them separate

316 and 316L are both austenitic chromium-nickel-molybdenum stainless steels. The difference is carbon content: 316 contains up to 0.08% carbon, while 316L is limited to 0.03% — the "L" stands for low carbon. Lower carbon reduces chromium-carbide precipitation at the grain boundaries when the metal is heated, which is why 316L is preferred where welded joints must resist intergranular corrosion. Because the two grades are not interchangeable, we do not use the labels interchangeably either.

A grade is only published when the factory confirms it

Marketplace listings frequently carry a grade in the title or attributes without anything behind it. We treat that text as a starting point, not as evidence. A product is published as 316L only after the grade is confirmed with the factory that makes it; where that confirmation is not available, the product is listed as 316, and where the source record carries no grade at all, it is described only as stainless steel.

What this means when you order

You can read the grade for the exact SKU on its product page rather than inferring it from a category name or a homepage banner. If the grade matters for your programme — for example because parts will be welded, or because your own customer specification names a grade — order a sample first and confirm the requirement in writing before bulk production.

What is the difference between 316 and 316L stainless steel?

Both are austenitic chromium-nickel-molybdenum stainless steels with very similar corrosion resistance in normal wear. The difference is carbon content: 316 allows up to 0.08% carbon, while 316L is limited to 0.03%. The lower carbon in 316L reduces chromium-carbide precipitation when the metal is heated, so 316L holds up better against intergranular corrosion around welded joints. For most finished jewellery the practical difference is small, which is exactly why the label needs to be accurate rather than decorative.

Is every product on your site 316L stainless steel?

No. A product is listed as 316L only where that grade was confirmed with the factory, and those products are grouped in a separate 316L catalogue. Other products are listed as 316 stainless steel, or simply as stainless steel where the source record carries no grade. The grade shown on each product page is the authority for that SKU.
