**Maria Pipes and Tubes**, located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, stands out as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of **Stainless Steel 316 and 316L Heat Exchanger Tubing**. We provide both seamless and welded tubing, crafted to meet the needs of precision applications—offering outer diameters ranging from about 6 mm to over 50 mm, wall thicknesses from 0.7 mm to 12.7 mm, and custom lengths that can reach between 12 to 20 meters. Our products comply with global standards such as ASTM A213, A249, A269, and ASME SA213/SA249 ([mbmtubes.com][1], [metalloyinternational.com][2], [Jay Hind Metal & Tubes][3], [dsstainlesssteel.com][4]).
Stainless Steel 316/316L Heat Exchanger Tubing is composed mainly of iron, with 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, and 2-3% molybdenum. This composition enhances its resistance to corrosion, especially in chloride environments. Mechanical properties include excellent tensile strength (up to 580 MPa) and good ductility, ensuring durability under stress. Advantages of this tubing include high-temperature resistance, superior weldability, and reduced risk of pitting and crevice corrosion. Its reliable performance in demanding applications makes it ideal for chemical processing, marine, and food industry heat exchangers.

**Stainless Steel 316 and 316L** are nickel-based austenitic stainless alloys, containing approximately 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and 2–3% molybdenum. The low-carbon variant, 316L (<0.035% C), significantly boosts corrosion resistance, especially in welded areas, making it the go-to choice for environments prone to corrosion or sensitization ([Wikipedia][5], [metallicametals.com][6]). In terms of mechanical properties, these alloys showcase a tensile strength of about 515 MPa (yielding around 205 MPa), an elongation of up to 35–40%, and a hardness rating of up to 95 HRB ([Vardhman Tube][7], [Jay Hind Metal & Tubes][3], [metallicametals.com][6]).
