ASTM A276 is a standard specification that sets the requirements for stainless steel bars and shapes, including the popular Type 316 grade. While this standard directly covers solid forms like rounds and squares, the high-quality ASTM A276 316 stainless steel material is also precisely manufactured into high-performance tubes and pipes for specialized applications.
This grade is an austenitic stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance, which is enhanced by the addition of Molybdenum (2.00-3.00%). This key element provides 316 stainless steel with higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments compared environments compared to 304 stainless steel. Tubes made from this material offer superior strength, good formability, and ease of welding.
Applications of 316 Stainless Steel Tubes: Tubes manufactured from ASTM A276 316 stainless steel are ideal for critical sectors such as:
· Oil and Gas Equipment: For handling corrosive mediums.
· Chemical Processing: Resisting attack from various acids and chemicals.
· Marine and Coastal Applications: Offering enhanced resistance to saltwater corrosion.
