ASTM A358 EFW 316 / 316L Pipes are molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel welded pipes, manufactured using Electric Fusion Welding (EFW) process for enhanced reliability and strength. They are suitable for corrosive, high-temperature, and industrial environments.
Grade 316 offers excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride-induced corrosion, while 316L provides improved weldability due to its low carbon content, reducing the risk of intergranular corrosion.
