The EM 10088 316 Tubo de aço inoxidável is a high-performance, corrosion-resistant pipe made from austenitic stainless steel. This grade, commonly known as 316 aço inoxidável, is specifically designed for applications that require superior resistance to corrosion, particularly in harsh environments. It is especially effective in resisting pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments, making it ideal for use in the chemical, petrochemical, marine, and pharmaceutical industries. Manufactured to EM 10088 padrões, 316 aço inoxidável pipes are durable, non-reactive, and provide long-lasting performance in challenging conditions.

Unique Features of EN 10088 316 Tubo de aço inoxidável

• Superior Corrosion Resistance: 316 aço inoxidável offers enhanced resistance to corrosion, particularly against chloride-rich environments, making it the ideal material for use in seawater, chemical processing, and marine applications.
• Resistance to Pitting and Crevice Corrosion: Unlike other grades, 316 aço inoxidável has exceptional resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, especially in environments containing chlorides, such as seawater and saline environments.
• High Strength and Durability: This grade of stainless steel has high tensile strength, allowing the pipe to perform well in high-pressure systems and at elevated temperatures.
• Hygienic and Easy to Clean: The non-porous and smooth surface of 316 aço inoxidável makes it easy to clean, ensuring that it meets the strict hygiene standards required in food processing, produtos farmacêuticos, and medical industries.
• Weldability and Formability: 316 aço inoxidável can be welded using most welding methods, including TIG and MIG, and maintains its integrity and corrosion resistance even after welding.
