316L stainless steel pipe is a high-quality stainless steel material with many excellent properties and a wide range of applications. The following is a detailed introduction to 316L stainless steel pipe:
Corrosion resistance: 316L stainless steel pipe has excellent corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of various chemical substances, such as acid, alkali, salt, etc. This makes it widely used in chemical, petroleum and other industries. Especially in terms of resisting chloride corrosion, 316L stainless steel performs well and is superior to other types of stainless steel.
High temperature performance: 316L stainless steel pipe has good high temperature performance and can maintain stable physical and chemical properties under high temperature environment. Therefore, it is often used in pipeline systems under high temperature conditions.
Processing performance: 316L stainless steel pipe is easy to process and form, and can be made into pipes and pipe fittings of various shapes and specifications. In addition, it also has excellent welding performance, which is convenient for installation and maintenance.
Mechanical properties: 316L stainless steel pipe has high strength and toughness, and can withstand greater pressure and impact. This makes it have a wide range of application prospects in various engineering fields.
The main chemical composition of 316L stainless steel is as follows:
Chromium (Cr): 16-18%
Nickel (Ni): 10-14%
Molybdenum (Mo): 2-3%
Carbon (C): ≤ 0.03%
Manganese (Mn): ≤ 2%
Silicon (Si): ≤ 1%
Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.045%
Sulfur (S): ≤ 0.03%
Iron (Fe): Balance
The mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel are as follows:
Tensile Strength: ≥ 485 MPa
Yield Strength: ≥ 170 MPa
Elongation: ≥ 40%
Hardness:
Brinell hardness (HB): ≤ 217
Vickers hardness (HV): ≤ 200
Rockwell hardness (HRB): ≤ 95
Due to its excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, 316L stainless steel pipes are widely used in the following fields:
Chemical and petrochemical industries: used for pipelines, storage tanks and equipment for conveying corrosive media.
Medical and food industries: used for equipment and pipelines with high cleanliness requirements, such as pharmaceutical equipment, food processing equipment and brewing equipment.
Marine engineering: used for structures and equipment in marine environments, such as offshore platforms and ship components.
Architecture and decoration: used for building exterior walls, railings and other decorative parts.
Medical devices: used for the production of surgical instruments and implants.
Shipbuilding steel plate refers to the carbon and alloy steel plate used in offshore and marine contructions, common grades are A, B, D, E, AH32/36/40,
316 stainless steel plate is a higher common use stainless steel than 304&304L, it has 2.0 to 3.0% of Molybdenum content which provides better overal
