What is Stainless Steel 316L Pipes?

Metcore Alloys is among the most leading manufacturers, suppliers, exporters, and stockists of Stainless Steel 316L Pipes. The SS 316L Pipes are a family of austenitic stainless steel alloys that are basically a combination of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum at a generally lower carbon composition than the standard 316 grades. It is this very factor—the lower carbon level—that makes these pipes much more weldable and hence used in a wide range of applications.

Their performance is exemplary in those operating environments where there are higher chances of chloride ion corrosion due to the presence of molybdenum, which removes corrosion rates to a minimum in such conditions. Available welded, seamless, and fabricated, these pipes are rather versatile in application.

The minimum yield strength for ASTM A312 TP316L Pipe is 205 MPa, and the minimum tensile strength is 515 MPa, while neglecting resistance at higher temperatures, incredibly up to 870 degrees Celsius.The SS 316L ERW Pipe is made through the process of welding a sheet edge-to-edge or spirally, thus giving more roughness than seamless pipes besides giving low dimensional accuracy.

The SS UNS S31603 Hollow Pipe can be put to use commonly in applications involving industries and commercials besides general corrosive services. Please feel free to contact us for further information and the best prices on SS Grade F316L Tubes. The Stainless Steel 316L Pipe contains molybdenum, nickel, and chromium elements, making it extremely corrosion-resistant and easy to weld.

It serves as a lower-carbon alternative to 316. These pipes have a minimum tensile strength of 458 MPa, and they find their application in marine industries due to this property. They show 40% elongation, with their minimum yield strength being 170 MPa and a density of 8000 kg/m2. The mechanical performance in chloride-rich and aqueous environments is complemented by an austenitic structure that allows functionality down to cryogenic temperatures.

Our Stainless Steel 316L Seamless Pipe has sizes ranging from ½ to 24-inch sizes, with low carbon content to minimize carbide precipitation. These pipes can be used at temperatures up to 800°F. The size ranges from 6 to 100 inches and is designed to handle high temperature and pressure; it's determined by grade and thickness.

A 316L SS ERW Pipe is formed by spiral or end-to-end welding, showing roughness and each with less accuracy than seamless pipes, but it's easy to machine. In the **316L Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe**, when annealed, it can operate up to 1950°F. Besides, cold rolling processes can enhance their required properties to such an extent that the resultant product is smoother, like the WNR. 1.4404 Polished Pipe, which will have even more excellent corrosion resistance.
