Stainless Pipe 316

• General Info

  Stainless Steel 316 Pipe is a type of austenitic stainless steel, similar to 304 Stainless Steel, but with the addition of 2-3% molybdenum, which enhances its corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides and other aggressive chemicals. 316 Stainless Steel is widely regarded as one of the most corrosion-resistant stainless steel alloys, making it ideal for use in environments where resistance to corrosion is a priority, such as marine and chemical industries.

• Specification

  Stainless Steel 316 Pipe Specifications
  Material Composition
  Chromium (Cr): 16-18% (provides corrosion resistance)
  Nickel (Ni): 10-14% (improves toughness and resistance to corrosion)
  Molybdenum (Mo): 2-3% (enhances resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, particularly in chloride environments)
  Manganese (Mn): 2% (improves strength)
  Carbon (C): 0.08% max (ensures ductility and strength)
  Silicon (Si): 0.75% (provides heat resistance)
  Phosphorus (P) and Sulfur (S): 0.045% max each (improves machinability)
