316Ti Stainless Steel 316Ti Plate

Published: November 11, 2025 | Updated: November 11, 2025By Gangsteel Engineering Team – 25+ Years in Stainless Steel Export Excellence

In the precision domain of stainless steels compliant with ASTM A240/A240M – 316Ti (UNS S31635) and ASME SA240/SA240M – 316Ti, 316Ti plate stands as a titanium-stabilized austenitic material engineered for superior performance in high-temperature, corrosive, and welded applications.

As a premier producer and exporter based in China, Gangsteel has supplied thousands of tons of 316Ti plate, fully compliant with ASTM A240/A240M and ASME SA240/SA240M, to industries like petrochemical, power generation, and marine.

If you're sourcing 316Ti plate for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, or structural components where IGC resistance at 425–815°C and long-term durability are critical, Gangsteel delivers mill-direct stock with full traceability. This article covers 316Ti plate specifications, properties, and stock availability under ASTM A240/A240M and ASME SA240/SA240M.

From our production lines: In a 2024 Los Angeles refinery upgrade, our 316Ti plate under ASTM A240 /A240M passed ASTM A262 Practice E with zero IGC after 1,000 hours at 650°C, enabling ASME VIII compliance without PWHT — saving 25% in fabrication time. With ASME SA240/SA240M approval, 316Ti plate’s density of 8.00 g/cm³ supports lightweight yet robust designs. Let’s explore 316Ti plate — from composition to stock — for your next project.
