316 400mm diameter stainless steel pipe
316 is usually regarded as the standard marine grade stainless steel, but it is not resistant to warm sea water. In many marine environments 316 does exhibit surface corrosion, usually visible as brown staining. This is particularly associated with crevices and rough surface finish.
Alloy 316 is the standard molybdenum grade. Stainless steel 316 pipe/tube is designed for excellent corrosion resistance. These grades have better resistance to crevice and pitting corrosion than alloy 304. The design minimum tensile strength of stainless steel 316 pipe is 515Mpa, and the minimum yield strength is 200Mpa.
The Stainless Steel 316 Tubes also possess a good density of 8000kg/m3. The standard wall thickness of these tubes ranges from 0.5mm to 6.35mm. The SS 316 Seamless Pipe is made without a fillet or welds. These pipes range from ½ inches to 16 inches in outer diameter.
ASTM A312 Tp316 material properties are mechanically superior to 304 pipe products. Adding molybdenum to the composition makes the material stronger and more resistant to corrosion. 316 stainless steel pipe is the second most common stainless steel after 304. 316 tubing typically contains 16% chromium and 10% nickel, with molybdenum additions typically between 2-3%. Molybdenum improves corrosion resistance, especially to chlorides and other industrial solvents. Although there may be differences in the chemical composition of ASTM A312 TP316 pipe and 304, their mechanical properties are similar.
They are widely used in marine systems, pulp, and paper, chemical industries, etc. This Marine grade 316 Stainless Steel Tubing doesn’t corrode or rust in these harsh marine environments. It is also referred to in many cases as marine stainless steel. We are the leading stockist of Stainless Steel 316 Pipe/ Tube. Our vision is focused on providing the best products at reasonable rates.
