Stainless Steel 316N Reducing Cross Pipe Fittings

Stainless steel 316N reducing cross pipe fittings is a type of stainless steel alloy known as an austenitic chromium-nickel alloy. It contains increased levels of nickel and molybdenum for improved corrosion resistance over other types of stainless steel, enabling it to be used in a variety of industrial applications. The various chemical elements that make up this stainless steel alloy can vary but typically contain 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, 2-3% molybdenum, and trace amounts of phosphorus, sulfur and silicon. This combination of elements allows it to be the go-to choice for reducing cross-pipe fittings in many industries due to its superior resistance to environmental conditions such as water, chlorine, salt water and heat.

316N SS reducing cross pipe fittings have a variety of unique properties. They possess high strength and excellent corrosion resistance – making them resistant to seawater, brine solutions, organic acids, and mild alkalis – and they are also nonmagnetic, ductile, and easily machined. As such, these pipe fittings are well suited for use in areas exposed to extreme weather conditions, such as deep sea oil rigs or chemical plants where long-term performance is needed. Additionally, its chemical makeup helps the pipe fittings from being affected by heating cycles or thermal shock, which makes them suitable for use in controlled temperature environments like cryogenic manufacturing. Through its multifunctional qualities, stainless steel 316N reducing cross pipe fittings make an ideal choice for various applications.
