317L Pipe Fittings
Stainless Steel 317L (UNS S31700) is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel, well-regarded for its enhanced corrosion resistance and durability in highly corrosive environments. With 18–20% chromium and 11–15% nickel content, 317L surpasses the corrosion resistance of standard 316 stainless steel, offering superior protection in applications where pitting and crevice corrosion are concerns.
Comprehensive Range of 317L Pipe Fittings
A full range of 317L stainless steel fittings is available, including reducers, elbows, tees, crosses, end caps, stub ends, and pipe bends. All products meet ASTM A-403, ANSI B16.9/16.28, and MSS SP-43 standards, and include Welding Bevel Standards as per ANSI B 16.25. Standard and custom sizes are available, accommodating bending radii from 1D to 10D for various project specifications.
The selection includes ex-stock options for 317L fittings, 317L flanges, and 317L pipe bends, allowing for quick and efficient delivery. Large-diameter, radiography-tested SS 317L elbows, reducers, tees, and custom fabricated pipes are also available for substantial industrial installations.
Why Choose Stainless Steel 317L?
Stainless Steel 317L is a premium-grade, molybdenum-enhanced stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and intergranular corrosion. It is particularly well-suited for industries with aggressive chemical environments, such as pulp and paper, petrochemical, and chemical processing.
