This makes Stainless Steel 316Ti pipes and tubes ideal for high-temperature and critical industrial applications.

Stainless Steel 316Ti Pipes and Tubes

What is Stainless Steel 316Ti?

Stainless Steel 316Ti is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel alloy containing molybdenum (2–3%) and titanium as a stabilizing element. Titanium prevents carbide precipitation, maintaining corrosion resistance and mechanical integrity at high temperatures.

Stainless Steel 316Ti pipes and tubes are known for:

  • Excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride and acidic environments
  • High-temperature stability and oxidation resistance
  • Superior mechanical strength
  • Exceptional weldability
  • Non-magnetic in annealed condition
  • Hygienic and easy-to-clean surface

This combination of properties makes Stainless Steel 316Ti ideal for chemical, petrochemical, marine, and power generation industries.


Chemical Composition of Stainless Steel 316Ti (%)

  • Chromium (Cr): 16.0 – 18.0%
  • Nickel (Ni): 10.0 – 14.0%
  • Molybdenum (Mo): 2.0 – 3.0%
  • Titanium (Ti): 5 × (C + N) min – 0.70% max
  • Carbon (C): ≤ 0.08%
  • Manganese (Mn): ≤ 2.0%
  • Silicon (Si): ≤ 1.0%
  • Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.045%
  • Sulfur (S): ≤ 0.03%
  • Iron (Fe): Balance

Role of Alloying Elements

  • Chromium: Provides corrosion and oxidation resistance
  • Nickel: Enhances ductility, toughness, and weldability
  • Molybdenum: Improves pitting and crevice corrosion resistance
  • Titanium: Stabilizes carbon, preventing carbide precipitation during welding and high-temperature exposure
  • Low Carbon Content: Prevents intergranular corrosion

The titanium stabilization ensures long-term durability even in high-temperature, corrosive environments.

Stainless Steel 316Ti provides excellent mechanical strength suitable for structural and pressure applications:

  • Tensile Strength: ≥ 515 MPa
  • Yield Strength: ≥ 205 MPa
  • Elongation: ≥ 40%
  • Hardness: ≤ 95 HRB

These mechanical properties ensure that Stainless Steel 316Ti pipes and tubes maintain structural integrity under high stress and thermal conditions.


Physical Properties of Stainless Steel 316Ti

  • Density: 8.0 g/cm³
  • Melting Range: 1375 – 1400°C
  • Thermal Conductivity: 16 W/m·K
  • Modulus of Elasticity: 193 GPa
  • Electrical Resistivity: 0.74 µΩ·m

Stainless Steel 316Ti maintains strength, corrosion resistance, and stability in high-temperature industrial applications.


Corrosion and High-Temperature Resistance

Stainless Steel 316Ti pipes and tubes offer superior resistance to:

  • Pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments
