316 stainless steel tubing

316 stainless steel pipe has the best resistance to pitting and corrosion of any austenitic (300 series) stainless steel. It is extremely ductile and has excellent strength at high temperatures.

Seamless 316 stainless steel pipe can be produced in thicker wall thicknesses for mechanical applications. 316 stainless steel pipe is a seamless construction, offers greater durability under pressure, and has greater aesthetic appeal than stainless steel 304 pipe. It is ideal for hydraulic and instrumentation piping in the chemical, textile, pulp and paper industries, and marine environments. 316 stainless steel tubing, also known as surgical stainless steel, is commonly used in the food and pharmaceutical industries where metal contamination needs to be minimized.

Welding 316 stainless steel pipe has a weld bead on the inside diameter. It is cheaper than seamless pipe or welded drawn pipe.
