316 / 316L Stainless Steel Tube
316 stainless steel tube adds molybdenum to the 304 base, which gives better resistance to pitting and chlorides. It is the standard choice for marine, coastal, chemical and pharmaceutical service. We supply welded (EN 10296-2 / ASTM A269) and seamless (GOST 9941 / ASTM A213) tube.
