Vipul Pipes and Tubes, a reputable manufacturer and supplier of premium stainless steel 317 and 317L EFW (Electric Fusion Welded) pipes with headquarters in Chennai, India, is well-known for its increased strength and resistance to corrosion in harsh chemical environments. While SS 317L has a low carbon content, which reduces the chance of intergranular corrosion after welding, SS 317 has a higher molybdenum content for better resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. These pipes, which are made with cutting-edge fusion welding technology, guarantee a solid weld seam, outstanding durability, and precise dimensions. For sectors including chemical processing, pulp and paper, marine, and power generation, Vipul provides reliable piping solutions.
Austenitic stainless steels with higher contents of chromium (18–20%), nickel (11–15%), and molybdenum (3–4%) than 316 provide better corrosion resistance than stainless steel 317 and 317L EFW pipes. The maximum carbon content of 317L is 0.03%, which improves sensitization resistance and weldability. Tensile strength of roughly 515 MPa, yield strength of 205 MPa, and elongation of 35–40% are examples of mechanical properties. Because the EFW (Electric Fusion Welded) process produces strong, consistent welds and reliable pipe integrity, it is perfect for structural applications in high-temperature and high-pressure settings as well as corrosive environments.

Industries that require exceptional corrosion resistance and strength in challenging chemical and high-temperature environments frequently use stainless steel 317 and 317L EFW pipes. These pipes are frequently found in power generation systems, pulp and paper production, chemical and petrochemical plants, textile dyeing equipment, and marine applications. Because of its low carbon content, SS 317L is recommended for welded assemblies that are subjected to corrosive environments. They are appropriate for acid-processing applications due to their resistance to sulfuric, acetic, formic, and tartaric acids. Particularly in large-diameter piping systems that are subjected to high mechanical and thermal stress, the EFW construction offers durability and dependability.
