316Ti Stainless Steel 316Ti Weight Calculator

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 and ASME SA240/SA240M standards, 316Ti emerges as a titanium-stabilized austenitic grade whose weight calculator is essential for accurate material estimation in designs requiring high-temperature stability and corrosion resistance.

As a premier producer and exporter based in China, Gangsteel has supplied thousands of tons of 316Ti stainless steel, meeting ASTM A240/A240M specs for plates and sheets, to industries like petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and marine.

If you're using a weight calculator for 316Ti under ASME SA240/SA240M for components like heat exchangers or pressure vessels where mass, dimensions, and cost are critical, understanding the formulas and data is key. This article provides a comprehensive weight calculator for 316Ti, including formulas for common shapes, examples, and insights, based on ASTM A240/A240M and ASME SA240/SA240M standards and our mill data.

From our production lines, we've used the 316Ti weight calculator in practice: In a 2024 U.S. chemical vessel design, our 316Ti plates under ASTM A240 /A240M were calculated at 80 kg/m² for 10mm thickness, enabling precise budgeting and 15% material savings, as per client engineering reports. Compliant with ASME SA240/SA240M for pressure apps, 316Ti's density of 8.00 g/cm³ (or 8000 kg/m³) is the core of accurate calculations. Let's delve into the weight calculator, from formulas to tools, with examples for plates, bars, and pipes, to equip you for efficient planning.

 

Summary

The 316Ti stainless steel weight calculator uses density 8.00 g/cm³ (8000 kg/m³) for precise mass estimation, with formulas for plates (length x width x thickness x density), round bars (π x (diameter/2)^2 x length x density), and pipes (π x [(OD/2)^2 - (ID/2)^2] x length x density). Compliant with ASTM A240/A240M and ASME SA240/SA240M, it aids budgeting for high-temp apps. Example: 1m x 1m x 10mm plate = 80 kg. Gangsteel stocks 1-200mm with certs; use our online calculator for quotes.

Corrosion Resistance: At Temperature Range

316Ti's corrosion resistance, per ASTM A240/A240M and ASME SA240/SA240M, holds across temperature range.

  • Uniform: <0.1 mm/year in acids to 100°C.
  • IGC: Resistant with Ti in 425-815°C.
  • Oxidation: Protective scale to 925°C intermittent.
  • Pitting: PREN 23-28 effective to 100°C.

Weldability and Fabrication: Temperature Range Considerations

316Ti is highly weldable per ASTM A240/A240M, Ti preserving properties across range. No preheat; fillers ER316L.

FAQ: 316Ti Stainless Steel Temperature Range Questions Answered

Q: What is the temperature range for 316Ti stainless steel?

A: 316Ti temperature range is -196°C to 815°C continuous and up to 925°C intermittent, with Ti preventing IGC and maintaining >70% strength.

Q: What is the maximum continuous temperature for 316Ti?

A: Maximum continuous temperature for 316Ti is 815°C, with oxidation <0.1 mm/year and no sensitization due to Ti stabilization.

Q: What is the intermittent maximum temperature for 316Ti?

A: Intermittent maximum temperature for 316Ti is 925°C for short-term exposure, suitable for exhaust or furnace spikes.

Q: How does temperature affect 316Ti's mechanical properties?

A: At 600°C, tensile drops ~20%, yield ~15%, but retains >70% up to 815°C due to Ti preventing carbide weakening.

Q: What is the sensitizing temperature range for 316Ti?

A: Sensitizing range is 425-815°C, but Ti binds carbides as TiC, preventing IGC and allowing safe use.

Q: Is 316Ti suitable for cryogenic temperatures?

A: Yes, 316Ti is suitable down to -196°C with good toughness (impact ~100 J), no brittle transition.

Q: How does 316Ti compare to 316L in temperature range?

A: 316Ti has similar range but better IGC resistance at high temps due to Ti; 316L risks sensitization above 425°C.
