David Pipes and Tubes, located in Canberra, Australia, has built a solid reputation as a manufacturer and supplier of top-notch stainless steel 316/316L ERW pipes. These Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) pipes are celebrated for their exceptional resistance to corrosion, impressive weldability, and durability, especially in tough industrial and marine settings. You’ll find stainless steel 316/316L ERW pipes in various applications that demand high strength and resistance to chlorides, acids, and other harsh substances. David Pipes and Tubes takes pride in their precise fabrication, smooth internal surfaces, and strict adherence to international standards, making their products perfect for critical piping and fluid transport systems.
The composition of stainless steel 316/316L ERW pipes includes chromium (16–18%), nickel (10–14%), and molybdenum (2–3%), with 316L featuring a lower carbon content to minimize carbide precipitation during welding. These pipes boast a tensile strength ranging from 515 to 690 MPa, a yield strength of 205 MPa, an elongation of 40%, and a hardness of up to 90 HRB. This well-balanced composition offers remarkable resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and oxidation, even in chloride-rich and marine environments, while ensuring mechanical integrity under high pressure and temperature.
