SUS316L SCH 40 SS Welded Pipe is a welded stainless steel pipe that conforms to JIS G3459 (Japanese Industrial Standard). It is made of SUS316L alloy (a low-carbon, corrosion-resistant steel) and is classified as Schedule 40 pipe (referring to its wall thickness and pressure rating). It is used for fluid and gas transportation in industries such as chemical processing, petrochemical, and shipbuilding.
JIS G3459 Standards and Grades
SUS316 – Equivalent to ASTM A312 TP316, contains molybdenum for enhanced corrosion resistance, especially in marine and chemical environments.
SUS316L – A low-carbon version of SUS316,offering improved weldability and resistance to sensitization.
