Liam Pipes & Tubes provides high-quality Stainless Steel 316 Tubing from Houston, USA, built for precision, corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength. SS 316, enhanced with molybdenum, offers excellent resistance to chlorides and acidic conditions, making it perfect for tough industrial uses. Our tubing is available in seamless or welded versions and meets ASTM A269, A213, and other international standards. Whether used in marine, chemical, pharmaceutical, or food-grade systems, our SS 316 tubing guarantees reliability and long service life. Each tube is tested for wall uniformity, corrosion resistance, and dimensional accuracy to ensure optimal fluid handling performance.
SS 316 tubing contains 16-18% Cr, 10-14% Ni, 2-3% Mo, with a carbon content of ≤0.08%. This alloy offers excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and oxidation. Mechanical properties include tensile strength of about 515 MPa, yield strength of around 205 MPa, and elongation of around 35%. It maintains strength at moderately high temperatures and shows good creep resistance. Non-magnetic in the annealed state, SS 316 is also very weldable and formable. These tubes are ideal for high-purity and corrosive applications needing long-term dimensional and mechanical stability.
