GB/T 4237 316 Edelstahlrohr – Product Overview

Der GB/T 4237 316 Edelstahlrohr is a high-quality pipe made from 316 Edelstahl, known for its outstanding resistance to corrosion, particularly in chloride environments. This pipe conforms to the GB/T 4237 standard, which ensures it meets the highest industry standards for mechanical and chemical properties. The addition of molybdenum (Mo) to the alloy gives 316 Edelstahl its superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for use in aggressive environments.

This type of stainless steel pipe is commonly used in the chemical, marine, food processing, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical industries, where exposure to harsh conditions and corrosive substances is frequent.

Unique Features of GB/T 4237 316 Edelstahlrohr

• Überlegene Korrosionsbeständigkeit: The presence of molybdenum (Mo) in 316 Edelstahl greatly enhances its resistance to corrosion, especially in environments exposed to chlorides, such as seawater, making it ideal for marine and coastal applications.
• Enhanced Durability: 316 Edelstahl offers excellent resistance to high temperatures (bis zu 870 ° C.) and aggressive chemicals, ensuring long-lasting performance even in harsh industrial environments.
• Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance: This material has improved resistance to stress corrosion cracking compared to other stainless steels, especially when exposed to chloride-rich environments.
• Easy to Fabricate and Weld: 316 Edelstahl has excellent formability and weldability, making it easy to manufacture and customize the pipes to meet specific design requirements.
• Versatile Applications: This pipe is widely used in industries such as chemical processing, marine, pharmaceutical, and food industries due to its high resistance to corrosion and its ability to maintain structural integrity under extreme conditions.
