Stainless steel is a versatile material comprised of a steel alloy and a small percentage of chromium ¡ª the addition of chromium adds to the material¡¯s corrosion resistance, a trait that earned stainless steel its name.

Once you have the right stainless steel tubing installed in your application, you might start to think about what to do with it at the end of its useful life. Although the alloying elements that go into stainless steel make it difficult to recycle, rest assured that about 50% of all new stainless steel is fabricated from melted down steel scrap.

Because stainless steel is also low-maintenance, oxidation resistant, and doesn¡¯t affect other metals it comes in contact with, it is frequently used in a large array of applications, especially in piping, tubing, and fittings manufacturing. Based on the end use of the pipe, stainless steel piping is broken down into several categories.

Stainless steel and copper are generally both ideal for indoor and outdoor applications and both hold up well over time. Stainless steel, comprises of a variety of alloys with chromium content ranging from 12 to 30 per cent, which protects it as long as the localised concentration is in excess of 12 per cent.

For tubing and piping applications, type 304 stainless steel is a common selection because it is highly chemical- and corrosion-resistant. However, type 304 stainless steel is not compatible with applications where temperatures fall between 800 and 1640 degrees Fahrenheit (F) because it is prone to carbide precipitation, a result of the material¡¯s .08 percent carbon content limit.

When compared to other types of pipes, the pricing of SS 316 pipes is competitive. Check the quality of the pipes before purchasing them while comparing the 316 stainless steel pipe pricing list.

316 steel pipe is appropriate for applications that require corrosion resistance above other traits. Ferritic or martensitic types of steel (those made with the most chromium) are manufactured to be either heat-treated or annealed.

316 stainless steel pipe is made from either solid chromium or a chromium and nickel combination. Types of stainless steel pressure pipe include seamless and welded pipe, electric fusion welded pipe for high-pressure applications, large diameter welded pipe for corrosive or high-temperature applications, and seamless and welded ferritic and austenitic stainless steel pipe.

For applications where stainless steel tubing or piping must come into contact with food and other sensitive products, sanitation is a high priority. Stainless steel sanitary tubing is used in such applications because it has high corrosion-resistance, doesn¡¯t tarnish, and is easy to keep clean.

In applications such as cylinders, bearings, and other hollow formed parts, stainless steel mechanical tubing is typically used. Tubing can manipulated to have a variety of cross-sectional shapes, such as square and rectangular, in addition to the more traditional, round tubing cross-section. Typically, ASTMA 511 and A554 grades are employed for mechanical tubing applications.

Both 316 and 316L stainless steel alloys are marine steels, but they do have some key differences. The composition of 316L has a lower proportion of carbon. To meet the requirements of 316L stainless steel, the carbon content cannot exceed 0.03%. This reduces the risk of carbon precipitation, making it a better choice for welding to ensure maximum corrosion resistance.

316 Stainless steel is a broad class of alloyed steels that contain a certain percentage of chromium to protect the metal from corrosion and related damage. The amount of chromium in the alloy¡ªand the amount of other metallic elements¡ªwill vary depending on the grade of stainless steel used.

316 stainless steel is a popular alloy that contains molybdenum. Unlike the most common stainless steel, 304 steel, it is more resistant to chlorides and other acids. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications in marine environments or applications that may be exposed to chlorides.

Like steel, 316 stainless steel is primarily composed of iron and carbon. However, stainless steel also contains at least 10.5% chromium, a metallic element that imparts a metal surface finish and excellent corrosion resistance. Stainless steel is ideal for long-term applications that will be exposed to elements, moisture and potentially corrosive chemicals. It is also ideal for sensitive industries such as food preparation and pharmaceuticals, as the risk of contamination is much lower.

Different grades of stainless steel also contain trace amounts of different elements. Grade 304 stainless steel contains up to 35% nickel and is used in applications such as appliances, cookware, plumbing and hardware. Grade 316 contains molybdenum, making it ideal for marine equipment, chemical and pharmaceutical equipment, and commercial galley equipment.

While both 304 and 316 stainless steels are strong, the addition of molybdenum to 316 gives it a slight advantage over 304 in strength. With 316 stainless steel, you can expect better resistance to chloride corrosion and pitting than 304 stainless steel, as well as higher strength at elevated temperatures.

316 stainless steel is another popular stainless steel for applications requiring hardness, durability, and corrosion resistance, but it tends to have more specialized and limited uses than 304 stainless steel. The most notable property of 316 stainless steel is its extreme resistance to corrosion, especially from chloride sources such as seawater and many industrial chemicals.

The anti-corrosion properties that make 316 steel unique come from the molybdenum in its composition. These properties make 316 the first choice for some specific applications where extreme corrosion resistance is required. Such applications include heavy duty marine projects and industrial applications where steel is often in contact with harsh corrosive substances.

316 stainless steel is more resistant to corrosion than 304 stainless steel, especially chlorides. This makes it a common choice for applications where marine equipment and other materials are exposed to extremely high concentrations of chlorides or other oxidizing agents. However, 304 stainless steel still has excellent corrosion resistance, so this is usually only a factor in marine environments and other high corrosion locations.

Grade 316 is also primarily composed of iron, and again contains significant amounts of nickel and chromium¡ª10-14% and 16-18%, respectively¡ªand small amounts of carbon, manganese, molybdenum, and silicon. For this reason, grade 316 stainless steel is often preferred for use in marine environments.

316 stainless steel has a similar chemical composition to 304, but also contains molybdenum. This addition makes it more resistant to corrosion. Like 304, the 316 formulation does not require post weld annealing. 316L stainless steel is almost the same as 316. The only difference is the carbon content. The low carbon content of 316L imparts better corrosion resistance than 316. 316L does not require post weld annealing.

316 contains many similar chemical and mechanical properties to 304 stainless steel. To the naked eye, the two metals look the same. However, the chemical composition of 316, consisting of 16% chromium, 10% nickel and 2% molybdenum, is the main difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel.

The lower carbon content in 316L minimizes harmful carbide precipitation from welding (carbon is drawn out of the metal and reacts with chromium when heated, impairing corrosion resistance). Therefore, 316L is used when welding is required to ensure maximum corrosion resistance.
