Rashdan Pipes and Tubes is a trusted manufacturer and supplier based in Amman, Jordan, specializing in premium-quality Stainless Steel 316 and 316L EFW Pipes for diverse industrial applications. With a strong commitment to precision engineering, superior performance, and international quality standards, the company delivers products that meet the demanding needs of chemical, marine, petrochemical, and high-temperature environments. Rashdan Pipes and Tubes ensures each pipe is manufactured with advanced welding technology, offering exceptional corrosion resistance, durability, and reliability. Their customer-focused approach, competitive pricing, and timely delivery have made them a preferred supplier across local and global markets.
Made from a blend of chromium (16–18%), nickel (10–14%), and molybdenum (2–3%), the Stainless Steel 316 and 316L EFW Pipes are engineered for excellence. The 316L grade has a lower carbon content, which enhances weldability and minimizes carbide precipitation, while the 316 grade provides greater strength at higher temperatures. With a tensile strength of 485–515 MPa, yield strength of 170–205 MPa, and an elongation of 40%, these pipes deliver outstanding mechanical stability, toughness, and resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and oxidation. The EFW process further improves their uniformity, making them suitable for high-pressure and corrosive environments.

Choosing Stainless Steel 316 and 316L EFW Pipes from Rashdan Pipes and Tubes guarantees excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and durability. Designed for diverse industrial applications, it delivers reliable performance in tough environments while maintaining competitive pricing for cost-effective solutions.
Stainless Steel 316 and 316L EFW Pipes contain chromium (16–18%), nickel (10–14%), and molybdenum (2–3%) for enhanced corrosion resistance, especially in chloride environments. Grade 316L features lower carbon content, reducing carbide precipitation during welding and improving weldability. These pipes exhibit excellent tensile strength, high yield strength, and superior toughness across varying temperatures. Their mechanical properties include good creep resistance, hardness, and elongation characteristics, making them suitable for high-pressure and corrosive service conditions. Both grades ensure long-term performance and stability in demanding industrial applications.
