Stainless Steel 316H Pipe Fittings

316H Stainless Steel Pipe Fittings is a high-carbon variant of 316 austenitic stainless steel. They contain up to 0.04–0.10% carbon, 2–3% molybdenum, 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and 0.75–1.20% manganese with traces of other elements such as phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur in varying proportions depending on the grade involved. Additionally, they have increased higher temperature creep strength compared to standard rates of SS 316L pipe fittings, making them suitable for use in high-temperature settings like petrochemical plants or power plants where temperatures exceed 550 degrees Celcius (1000°F).

SS 316H Pipe Fittings are mainly used in high-temperature applications due to their superior corrosion and heat resistance. Pipe fittings also have excellent weldability and cold working properties, making them highly durable and long-lasting. This type of fitting provides superior mechanical strength and creep resistance, which makes it ideal for demanding applications such as food processing, medical equipment, nuclear power plants, chemical plants, and petrochemical industries.
