The Difference Among 2WL, 5WL, and 6WL Stainless Steel
Are you wondering what 2WL, 5WL, and 6WL stainless steel are? What are the differences among them? And which one is more suitable for your project?
2WL, 5WL, and 6WL stainless steel refer to embossed surface patterns distinguished by the number and style of wave-like lines pressed into the sheet. 2WL features broader and deeper linear waves, giving a bold, industrial look; 5WL offers a balanced pattern with moderate depth and spacing, widely used for both aesthetics and added panel strength; while 6WL presents the finest, most intricate wave lines, resulting in a subtle, refined texture with excellent scratch and fingerprint resistance. All three are commonly used in architectural cladding, elevator panels, and high-traffic interiors, and can be customized with finishes like PVD coating or anti-fingerprint treatment.
You can choose the right stainless steel sheet according to your project or decoration requirements.
Yes, you can.
You only need the right tools and equipment to bend, cut, or weld these stainless steel sheets to fit your architectural designs.
Yes.
BWT fabricates these wave-texture stainless steel from austenitic steel grades 304 and 316 grade. However, for areas that are prone to rusting like along the coast, we recommend 316 stainless steel. Besides, they are perfectly designed for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Both BWT 5WL and 6WL wave-stainless steel will serve you well in different decorative architectural applications. The difference between the 5WL and 6WL lies primary on the nature of the finishing.
The checklist below will help you choose a perfect finish for your applications. That is if you are looking for:
- Moderate wave pattern – 5WL
- Deeper or more pronounced wave pattern –6WL
- Degree of reflectivity – 6WL is more reflective while 5WL offers moderate reflectivity with softer light diffusion
- Elegant and subtle texture – 5WL
- Eye-catching and more dramatic effect – 6WL
- Cost – 6WL slightly more expensive than 5WL
- Maintenance – 6WL require frequent maintenance than 5WL
- Applications – 5WL perfect for interior designs while 6WL is a suitable choice for exterior facades

Yes, they can hide fingerprints and smudges better than the polished stainless steel panels. Being a non-reflective surface with textured finish, they perfectly hide fingerprints.
But we can also add anti-fingerprint coating upon request.
Yes, the slip resistance is moderate due to the textured surface.
No, it does not.
These patterns are for decoration purposes. Therefore, they will not change the durability or strength of your decorative panels.
