Key Attributes

  1. Oxidation & Corrosion Resistance

    • 316Ti: Titanium stabilization prevents carbide precipitation during welding, ideal for corrugated stainless steel gas pipe exposed to acidic or chloride-rich environments. Molybdenum (2–3%) enhances pitting resistance in marine and chemical processing plants.
    • 310S: High chromium (24–26%) and nickel (19–22%) ensure exceptional oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1150°C, perfect for boiler tubes and furnace components.
  2. Mechanical Strength

    • Tensile Strength: 316Ti achieves 750 MPa, outperforming standard 316L in high-stress applications like offshore platforms. 310S maintains structural integrity at extreme temperatures, with creep strength critical for 3 inch stainless steel pipe in power plants.
    • Bend Strength: Both grades support cold bending up to 180° without cracking, essential for retrofitting 316 stainless steel pipe networks in HVAC systems.
  3. Versatility

    • Seamless/Welded Options: Custom 3 inch stainless steel pipe dimensions for petrochemical pipelines and architectural frameworks.
    • Surface Treatments: Electropolished finishes on corrugated stainless steel gas pipe minimize bacterial adhesion in sanitary applications.

Weight Calculation

The weight of stainless steel pipes is calculated using:

Where:

  • : Outer Diameter (mm)
  • : Wall Thickness (mm)

Example: A 3 inch stainless steel pipe (76.2 mm OD, 5 mm WT) weighs 8.81 kg/m, ideal for structural and fluid transport systems.

 


Identification & Marking

  • Laser Etching: ASTM/EN standards, heat number, and grade (e.g., "316Ti" or "310S") for traceability.
  • Color Coding: Optional bands for inventory management in industrial projects requiring 316 stainless steel pipe.

Why Do Stainless Steel Pipes Rust?

Despite their corrosion-resistant properties, rust can occur due to:

  1. Chloride Exposure: Coastal or industrial environments degrade passive oxide layers, especially in welded corrugated stainless steel gas pipe joints without post-weld cleaning.
  2. Intergranular Corrosion: Improper welding of 316Ti without nitrogen stabilization leads to chromium carbide formation at grain boundaries.
  3. Surface Contamination: Iron particles from cutting tools or grease disrupt the protective chromium oxide layer, critical for 316 stainless steel pipe in hygienic industries.
  4. Galvanic Corrosion: Direct contact with dissimilar metals (e.g., copper) accelerates oxidation. Insulating gaskets mitigate this risk in 3 inch stainless steel pipe installations.

Applications

  • 316Ti: Chemical reactors, corrugated stainless steel gas pipe networks, and marine hardware.
  • 310S: Boiler tubes, heat exchangers, and 316 stainless steel pipe systems in power generation.
