SS 316/316L Seamless/Welded/ERW Pipes

SS 316/316L Seamless/Welded/ERW Pipes are high-quality pipes that provide excellent corrosion resistance and durability. These pipes are widely used in various industries, including chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, and many more.

The seamless design of these pipes allows for smooth and consistent flow of fluids and gases through them, which makes them ideal for applications requiring high performance. The welded and ERW options are also reliable and provide an excellent choice for applications that require strong joints.

One of the significant advantages of using SS 316/316L Seamless/Welded/ERW Pipes is their superior resistance to corrosion and oxidation. They can withstand even extreme environmental conditions and remain durable and long-lasting. Additionally, these pipes are low-maintenance, which makes them a cost-effective choice for industries that demand reliable and efficient equipment.

Overall, SS 316/316L Seamless/Welded/ERW Pipes are an excellent investment for any industry that requires robust, corrosion-resistant piping systems. They offer superior performance, reliability, and longevity, making them an excellent choice for long-term use.

Difference and advantage of seamless pipe and welded pipe

SS 316 and 316L stainless steel pipes are two common materials, they are slightly different in chemical composition, but the biggest difference in use is that 316L has better corrosion resistance than 316.

When manufacturing seamless pipes and welded pipes, their differences and advantages are as follows:

1. Different manufacturing processes: 316L welded pipes are usually manufactured by resistance welding or inertia welding, while 316L seamless pipes need to be cold-drawn or hot-rolled.

2. The cost is different: Because the manufacturing process of 316L seamless pipe is relatively complex, the cost is usually higher than that of 316L welded pipe.

3. Suitable for different industries: 316L seamless pipe is usually used in high temperature and high pressure environment, such as chemical industry, shipbuilding, oil and gas exploitation and other important industries; The 316L welded pipe is more suitable for general pressure piping systems.

4. Different corrosion resistance: Because 316L contains more molybdenum and nickel, it has more advantages in corrosion resistance than 316. This means that in seawater or high chlorine environments, 316L is a better choice.

5. Length and size: Due to the higher process requirements of seamless pipes, their length is usually shorter, while welded pipes can be manufactured according to needs, which can be very flexible to meet customer requirements for pipe length and size.
