Stainless Steel 316TI Seamless Pipes

Ferrobend uses a seamless pipe manufacturing process known as extrusion or rotary piercing. In this process, the billet or ingot is heated to high temperatures and then pierced with a rotating tool to create a hollow tube. The tube is then elongated through a series of rollers or mandrels to reach the desired diameter and thickness. This process is crucial for ensuring that the pipes are free from seams, which enhances their strength and resistance to corrosion. After the initial formation, the pipes undergo a heat treatment process to relieve any internal stresses that may have formed during the extrusion or piercing process. This treatment also ensures that the final pipes retain their strength and durability, even at elevated temperatures. For Stainless Steel 316TI pipes, heat treatment is carefully controlled to maintain the titanium stabilization, further enhancing the material’s resistance to corrosion and pitting.

Ferrobend ensures that its Stainless Steel 316TI pipes are free from any impurities or oxide layers that may have formed during the manufacturing process. The pipes undergo a pickling and passivation process, which involves immersing the pipes in an acid solution to remove any scale or oxide layers. The passivation process enhances the material’s corrosion resistance by promoting the formation of a thin, protective oxide layer on the surface.

Once the pipes pass all quality tests, they are given a final surface treatment, which may include polishing or coating for added durability or aesthetic appeal. The pipes are then carefully packaged to prevent any damage during shipping and handling.

By leveraging cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, rigorous quality control, and a customer-focused approach, Ferrobend continues to set the benchmark for stainless steel pipe production worldwide. Whether for chemical processing, marine applications, or power generation, Stainless Steel 316TI seamless pipes from Ferrobend provide a reliable, long-lasting solution for any industrial need.

Stainless Steel 316TI is a modified version of the well-known 316 grade stainless steel. It contains a small amount of titanium (Ti), which enhances its resistance to sensitization (the formation of chromium carbide) in welded areas. This makes Stainless Steel 316TI highly resistant to corrosion in high-temperature environments, which is especially important in industries like petrochemical and power generation. The titanium content stabilizes the structure of the alloy, providing enhanced resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, even in aggressive environments like seawater.
