Stainless Steel 317L Pipes

Stainless steel 317l pipe is an alloy composed of iron, chromium, and nickel. Due to the high chromium content within this alloy, it possesses excellent corrosion and oxidation-resistant properties at various temperatures, making it ideal for many applications in harsh environments. It also contains small amounts of other elements, such as molybdenum and copper, which provide further corrosion resistance. This stainless steel has even been used in food production due to its non-reactive nature with foodstuffs. With its unique blend of qualities, stainless steel 317l pipe is an extremely versatile material with varied applications in many industries.

SS 317L pipe has many uses and properties due to its characteristics. It offers maximum corrosion resistance and is often used in corrosive environments. It can also withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for boilers, exhaust systems, heat exchangers and chemical processing plants. Furthermore, the pipe has improved weldability compared to other stainless steel, which makes it ideal for transporting water or chemicals. The internal surface of the pipe provides a smooth finish enabling greater flow efficiency. Additionally, 317L provides the benefit of low carbon content, making it suitable for medical instruments that require cleanliness and higher corrosion resistance than regular 304-grade stainless steel pipes.
