Stainless Steel 317 Piggable Bend Pipe Fittings

Stainless steel 317 piggable bend pipe fittings are composed of iron, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and nitrogen. Chromium provides the steel with excellent corrosion resistance, while nickel enhances its strength and durability. Molybdenum enhances the steel's resistance to corrosion, particularly in high-temperature environments, and nitrogen improves its overall toughness. The exact chemical composition of SS 317 piggable bend pipe fittings may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer and the specific application, but these elements are typically the primary components.

Stainless steel piggable bend pipe fittings 317 are commonly used in various industries due to their unique properties. Their high resistance to corrosion makes them ideal for use in harsh and corrosive environments. The high nickel content provides exceptional resistance to stress corrosion cracking and pitting, while the molybdenum enhances resistance to general and localized corrosion. The high chromium content also gives the fittings excellent heat resistance, making them suitable for high-temperature applications. These fittings are known for their toughness and strength, making them ideal for high-pressure piping systems. The ability to be pigged, or cleaned out, makes them perfect for use in pipelines where debris must be periodically removed. Additionally, they are easily fabricated and welded, making them versatile and convenient for various applications.
