316 stainless steel pipe fittings have been designed and manufactured with great care to meet the specifications required for a wide range of applications in chemical, petro-chemical, oil refineries, power generation, ship building, pulp and papers, micro-electronics, etc.

 

316 stainless steel has higher nickel and lower chromium content than 304 Stainless Steel. 316 stainless steel pipe fitting contains between 16 – 18 percent chromium (Cr) and between 10 – 14 percent nickel (Ni), as well as small amounts of carbon (C) and manganese (Mn). The key difference is the addition of 2 – 3 percent SS316C-05 (angle)molybdenum (Mo) which makes it more corrosion resistant.

 

316 stainless steel pipe fitting is more expensive; however, 316 stainless steel tee provides higher corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides and chlorinated solutions. 316 stainless elbow is highly recommended in applications where powerful corrosives, chlorides and salt exposure is an issue, since it will last longer than 304.

 

316 stainless steel fittings are commonly used in Marine/Sea water, Industrial-Commercial Chemical and Pharmaceutical equipment and many other non-potable water applications. They are ideal for all potable water systems and municipal water treatment plants and pump houses. 316 stainless steel fittings are worth the expense if you are looking for superior corrosion resistance.
