What is Stainless Steel 316 Pipe?

A 316 pipe is an austenitic stainless steel grade. The Stainless Steel 316 Pipe is designed with an excellent chemical composition of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum alongside other constituents. This gives the 316 Stainless Steel Pipe good strength and excellent corrosion resistance properties across volatile environments.

The pipes are designed in seamless, welded, or erw specifications. A 316 stainless steel seamless pipe doesn’t have any seam or welds and exhibits superior strength and performance in harsh environments. The SS 316 seamless pipe price list differs based on the material and any customization requested.

A SS 316 welded pipe is manufactured as metal is rolled and subsequently welded with or without filler material. These pipes are a cheap alternative to seamless pipes. The SS 316 erw pipe is rolled with a longitudinal seam that is welded by passing electricity. These pipes can be welded without any filler material.

Causes Of Cracking Of 316 Stainless Steel Pipe ?

Cracking of 316 stainless steel pipe is caused due to corrosion primarily. Cracking in the 316 SS grade occurs due to pitting originating due to corrosion pits on its exterior surface. The presence of the highly corrosive film on the 316 stainless steel round tube will also cause the vessel to deteriorate over time.

Difference between Schedule 10/10S and Schedule 40/ 40S 316 stainless steel pipe

Schedules can be used to describe how thick a particular pipe wall is. A Schedule 10 316 stainless steel pipe is designed primarily to work where the stress on the system is low. The pipes have lower strength and can’t handle extreme conditions. A Schedule 40 316 stainless steel pipe can handle moderate pressure and temperature environments. These pipes have more strength than SCH 10 pipes.

Is 316 Stainless Steel Tube Corrosion Resistant?

The Stainless Steel 316 Tube offers outstanding resistance to corrosive media in different environments. The marine grade 316 Stainless Steel Tube has good tolerance to pitting and crevice corrosion across warm chloride conditions. It is also resistant to stress corrosion cracking above 60 degrees C. The 1.4401 Tube can be tolerant to potable water up to 1000mg/L chlorides at ambient temperatures. The AISI 316 tube also has excellent tolerance to intergranular corrosion in welds or the heat affected zones of the tubes. All in all the 316 SS seamless tubing is prone to rust when exposed to elements for long periods.

What is hydrostatic test pressure of SS 316 seamless pipe?

The hydrostatic test is a robust test wherein the SS 316 seamless pipe is pressurized to evaluate its integrity. Typically seamless pipes have a hydrostatic test pressure of 1.25 × design. Here the 316 seamless tubing is typically added with a 6% code margin and has a 75 psi code margin.
