What are Stainless Steel 316Ti Flanges?

So, what is exactly a Stainless Steel 316Ti Flange? It is a cast or forged ring used to connect pipe sections or connect pipes to any pressure vessel, valve, pump, or any integrally flanged assembly. 316Ti stainless steel is used to make these flanges and is a titanium-stabilized form of 316 that offers better resistance to intergranular corrosion. Molybdenum composition is added to it to offer increased resistance to pitting and is thus suitable to be used in marine and acidic environments. Meta Aerospace is one of the top Stainless Steel 316Ti Flanges Manufacturers in the world and supplies products under international standards like ASTM A182 and ASME SA182.

One of the prime benefits of Stainless Steel 316Ti Flanges is that they exhibit high oxidation and stress-corrosion cracking resistance. Mechanical properties are retained by these flanges under high temperatures up to 900°C. Their increased weldability and formability make them the ideal option for complicated fabrication work. They are corrosion-resistant against the atmosphere too and thus provide long service life under both indoor and outdoor conditions. As one of the most trustworthy Stainless Steel 316Ti Flanges Suppliers, Meta Aerospace ensures performance, protection, and durability with every product.

Uses and Applications Stainless Steel 316Ti Flanges?

The flanges are suitable for operations demanding longevity, leakage-proof joints, and resistance to corrosive media. They are reliable and maintain structure under highly acidic or basic conditions too.

• In the oil and gas sector, these flanges are used in high pressure piping and offshore rigs.
• In the petrochemical and chemical sector, these flanges are appreciated for withstanding corrosive chemicals and solvents.
• In the power generation sector, the flanges are used in steam turbines and heat exchangers owing to temperature withstanding capabilities.
• In the pharmaceutical and food processing sector, the hygienic qualities are important in SS 304/304L flanges.
• In marine application too, these flanges are an important part of the system with superior performance in saltwater environments.
• In the automotive and aerospace markets, these are used in engine parts and exhaust systems where strength and corrosion resistance are paramount.
