316L stainless steel is equivalent to S31603, 1.4404 and X2CrNiMo17-12-2.  As a  leading austenitic stainless steel supplier in China, Ronsco is enowned for our exceptional production standards, strict quality control, extensive inventory, and unwavering commitment to excellence. We specialize in supplying 316L stainless steel tube & pipe in various OD, ID, wall thickness and length, to meet customers' needs for different projects.

In addition to on-demand production, we also offer an large inventory, regularly stock a variety of materials and specifications. Regardless of project size, we can all meet deadlines and deliver final products that meet or exceed industry standards.

316L tube is an austenitic stainless steel, containing chromium, nickel and molybdenum, known for its excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride environments. In addition, the lower carbon contont make this grade immune from sensitisation or grain boundary carbide precipitation, and easier to machine.

316L tube  has exceptional mechanical properties, particularly its strength and ductility, making it ideal for applications that require high structural integrity. Additionally, the material exhibits excellent formability and resistance to crack propagation under stress, and offers a balance between strength and toughness.

• Corrosion Resistance: The addition of molybdenum in material 316L improves its resistance to pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion, this enhanced corrosion resistance makes 316L stainless tubing ideal for use in harsh environments, especially in industries like marine, chemical and pharmaceutical, ensuring longevity and performance. In addition, the low carbon content of 316L minimizes the risk of intergranular corrosion.

• High-temperature Resistance: The grade 316L is also known as 1.4404 stainless steel, which can maintain its structural integrity at temperatures up to 870°C (1,600°F), and it continues to perform well in temperatures up to 925°C (1,700°F) under intermittent conditions. This high-temperature resistance makes 316L tube ideal for applications such as furnaces, heat exchangers, boilers, and power plants.

• Excellent Machinability: Stainless steel 316L is not only easy to cut & drill, but also offers excellent weldability & good formability. It can maintain precision during processing, ideal for custom sizes and intricate designs. Further more, The material can undergo various surface treatments such as AP, MP, BA, EP,  resulting in a smooth surface for 316L stainless steel tube, which is very suitable for the medical and food industries.

The steel 316L is also known as S31603 stainless steel, widely used for manufacturing clean tube, known for its excellent surface finishes, mainly used in industries requiring high cleanliness and corrosion resistance. Common surface finishes include Acid Pickling (AP), Mechanical Polishing (MP), Bright Annealed (BA), and Electropolished (EP). These finishes are especially important for 316L stainless steel clean tube, as they ensure the tube are suitable for use in sensitive applications such as food, pharmaceuticals, and medical devices.

The extensive application of 316L stainless steel tube & pipe in the food, medical, semiconductor, and biotechnology industries is attributed to its outstanding characteristics such as high purity, corrosion resistance, ease of cleaning, and antimicrobial properties. These exceptional features ensure the hygiene and safety of conveyance systems and equipment, meeting the industries' stringent requirements for cleanliness, product quality, and production efficiency.
