ASTM A312 316/L Seamless Stainless Steel Pipe--OD RANGE 1/8"--6"

ASTM A312 316/L Seamless Stainless Steel Pipe for Industrial Applications

Product Information:

ASTM A312 is a specification from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) that outlines the requirements for seamless, welded, and heavily cold worked austenitic stainless steel pipes. In your specific case, "316/L" refers to the grade of stainless steel, and "seamless" indicates a seamless pipe.

Seamless stainless steel pipes are produced using a method called seamless pipe manufacturing. This process involves piercing a solid stainless steel billet or ingot to create a hollow tube. The billet is heated and then passed through a series of rollers to achieve the desired dimensions and shape. The resulting seamless pipe has no welding seams or joints.

Application :

Seamless stainless steel pipes find applications in many industries and sectors. They are commonly used in oil and gas exploration, refining and processing, petrochemical plants, power generation, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage processing, water treatment, aerospace, automotive, and architectural applications.
