In the specialized field of stainless steel welding, 316Ti wire and rod provide a reliable solution for applications requiring high corrosion resistance and stability in elevated temperatures, thanks to titanium stabilization that prevents intergranular attacks during welding.
As a premier producer and exporter based in China, Gangsteel offers extensive stock of 316Ti wire and rod under standards like ASME SA240/SA240M for pressure compliance and ASTM A240/A240M for general specs, serving industries such as petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and marine.
If you're selecting filler materials for a chemical piping weld or high-temp joint, understanding 316Ti's wire and rod options is essential. This guide covers composition, properties, welding tips, and applications, based on industry standards and our mill expertise.
From our production, we've seen 316Ti wire perform: In a 2024 European pharma line, our ER316Ti rod ensured joints resisted acidic steam at 150°C without leaks, as per client tests. Often used as equivalents to EN 1.4571 or JIS SUS316Ti wire, 316Ti's density 8.00 g/cm³ and PREN 23-28 make it durable. Gangsteel's stock includes diameters 0.8-5.0mm for wire and 10-500mm for rod, priced at $4-6 per kg FOB. Let's explore the details, from composition to sourcing, to see how our stock can meet your welding needs.
316Ti stainless steel wire and rod (UNS S31635, EN 1.4571, JIS SUS316Ti, AISI 316Ti) are ideal for welding in high-temp corrosives, with titanium preventing IGC and molybdenum boosting pitting resistance (PREN 23-28). Composition includes C 0.08 max, Ti 0.7 max; mechanicals like tensile 515 MPa min, yield 205 MPa min. Density 8.00 g/cm³ supports efficient use. Under ASME SA240 316Ti and ASTM A240 316Ti specs, they're suited for chemical and marine welds. Gangsteel stocks wire (0.8-5.0mm) and rod (10-500mm) at $4-6 per kg FOB 2025, with fast global delivery. Equivalents like DIN 1.4571 available. Choose Gangsteel for mill-direct quality and custom lengths.
