Liam Pipes & Tubes is a prominent manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 316 and 316L Welded Pipes in Houston, USA. Built for strong resistance to corrosion and solid structural integrity, our welded pipes are made using TIG and laser welding methods. SS 316 offers high strength, while SS 316L provides better weldability and resistance to intergranular corrosion. These pipes are used in the oil and gas, chemical, petrochemical, marine, and food sectors. We follow ASTM A312 and ASME specifications, supplying welded pipes in custom sizes and finishes to meet demanding industry needs.
SS 316/316L includes about 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, 2-3% molybdenum, with 316L containing ≤0.03% carbon. This lowers carbide precipitation during welding. SS 316 welded pipes have a tensile strength of about 515 MPa, yield strength of around 205 MPa, and an elongation of 35%. 316L has slightly lower strength but better weldability. These pipes have excellent resistance to chlorides, acids, and brine. Their ductility, impact strength, and resistance to pitting make them suitable for high-pressure and temperature services in corrosive environments, providing reliable performance throughout their operational life.
