316Ti Stainless Steel Strip
316Ti stainless steel strip is a titanium-stabilized alloy designed to withstand high heat and corrosive service conditions. It retains the excellent corrosion resistance of 316 while offering improved performance in welded structures and thermal cycling environments. Ideal for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and chemical equipment, 316Ti delivers outstanding long-term reliability, strength, and resistance to intergranular attack, making it an excellent choice for industrial and high-temperature applications.

Product Introduction
316Ti stainless steel strip is a titanium-stabilized version of 316 stainless steel. The titanium content helps to prevent carbide precipitation during welding or prolonged high-temperature exposure, enhancing its resistance to intergranular corrosion. This makes 316Ti ideal for applications requiring long-term strength and corrosion performance in aggressive or fluctuating thermal environments, such as exhaust systems, heat exchangers, and pressure vessels.
