China Factory Directly ASTM A213 Tp 316 Seamless Stainless Steel Pipe

Introduction

Our China factory offers directly sourced ASTM A213 Tp 316 seamless stainless steel pipes. These pipes are a result of advanced manufacturing techniques and strict quality control processes, ensuring high - performance and reliability for a wide range of applications.

Material Specification

Composition

The ASTM A213 Tp 316 stainless steel is composed of a well - balanced mix of elements. It contains approximately 16 - 18% chromium, 10 - 14% nickel, and 2 - 3% molybdenum. The addition of molybdenum enhances the pipe's resistance to corrosion, especially in environments with chloride ions. This makes it highly suitable for use in chemical processing plants, marine applications, and food - processing industries where exposure to corrosive substances is common.

Standard Compliance

Our pipes strictly adhere to the ASTM A213 standard. This standard sets the requirements for seamless ferritic and austenitic alloy - steel boiler, superheater, and heat - exchanger tubes. By meeting this standard, our pipes guarantee consistent quality and performance, providing peace of mind to our international customers.

Physical Characteristics

Shape

The pipes are round in shape. The round shape offers several advantages. It provides uniform stress distribution, which is crucial when the pipes are under internal or external pressure. This uniformity also makes it easier to connect the pipes using standard fittings, simplifying the installation process.

Dimensions

We offer a wide range of dimensions for our ASTM A213 Tp 316 seamless stainless steel pipes. The outer diameter can range from a few millimeters to several inches, allowing customers to choose the size that best suits their specific needs. The wall thickness is also customizable, ensuring that the pipes can withstand different levels of pressure and flow rates.

Manufacturing Process

Seamless Construction

The seamless manufacturing process is a key feature of our pipes. Unlike welded pipes, seamless pipes do not have a welded seam, which eliminates potential weak points. This results in a stronger and more reliable pipe that can handle high - pressure applications without the risk of seam failure.

Precision Machining

Our factory uses state - of - the - art machining equipment to ensure the highest level of precision in the production of these pipes. The pipes are carefully crafted to meet the exact specifications of the ASTM A213 standard, with tight tolerances on dimensions and surface finish.

Applications

Industrial Use

In the industrial sector, these pipes are widely used in chemical plants for transporting corrosive chemicals. They are also employed in power generation plants, where they are used in boilers and heat exchangers due to their excellent heat - transfer properties and corrosion resistance.

Marine Applications

The marine industry benefits greatly from the use of ASTM A213 Tp 316 seamless stainless steel pipes. The pipes can withstand the harsh salt - water environment, making them ideal for shipbuilding, offshore platforms, and desalination plants.

Food and Beverage Industry

In the food and beverage industry, the pipes are used for transporting food products and beverages. Their corrosion - resistant properties and smooth interior surface prevent contamination, ensuring the safety and quality of the products being transported.

Quality Assurance

Testing

Before leaving the factory, each pipe undergoes a series of rigorous tests. These include non - destructive testing methods such as ultrasonic testing to detect any internal flaws, and hydrostatic testing to ensure the pipes can withstand the specified pressure.

Certification

Our products are accompanied by relevant quality certificates, which confirm their compliance with international standards. This gives our customers confidence in the quality and performance of our ASTM A213 Tp 316 seamless stainless steel pipes.

Supply and Logistics

Factory Direct

As a manufacturer, we offer factory - direct sales. This means that customers can get the pipes at a competitive price without the additional costs associated with middlemen.

Global Shipping

We have established a reliable logistics network that can deliver our products to various parts of the world. Whether it's North America, South America, Europe, Asia, or Africa, we can ensure timely and safe delivery of our pipes to our international customers.
