316H Material Pipe Price Per kg
Leave a message
If you are looking for high-temperature resistant stainless steel pipes for your industrial projects, GNEE offers premium Type 316H stainless steel pipes designed to withstand extreme conditions in chemical processing, power generation, and offshore applications. Type 316H is a high-carbon variant of 316 stainless steel, delivering superior strength, excellent creep resistance, and outstanding corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures.
Our latest market data shows the price of 316H stainless steel pipes per kg in 2025 ranges from USD $5.50 to $9.50, depending on the pipe size, wall thickness, and surface finish.
What is AISI 316H material pipe?
AISI 316H is a high-carbon austenitic stainless steel pipe, a variation of Grade 316 with enhanced mechanical strength at high temperatures, making it ideal for demanding applications like power generation, petrochemicals, and chemical processing where resistance to heat, corrosion (especially chlorides), and stress is crucial, offering superior strength over standard 316/316L grades for elevated temperature service above 500°C (932°F)

316H vs 316L Stainless Steel Pipe Price Comparison Table (2025 Reference)
| Specification | 316H Pipe Price (USD/kg) | 316L Pipe Price (USD/kg) | Price Variation Factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seamless, 1/2" SCH10S | $4.20–$5.80 | $3.50–$4.80 | 316H premium: higher carbon content for high-temp stability |
| Seamless, 2" SCH40S | $3.80–$5.20 | $3.20–$4.50 | Batch order discount applicable for ≥5,000kg |
| Welded, 4" SCH10S | $2.50–$3.80 | $2.10–$3.20 | Welded type has lower cost than seamless |
| Customized (thick-wall ≥5mm) | $5.50–$8.00 | $4.80–$7.20 | Custom specs |
What are the typical applications of 316H stainless steel pipes?
Commonly used in heat exchangers, boilers, chemical reactors, offshore structures, and marine applications.
How do I calculate the weight of a 316H stainless steel pipe?
Use the formula: Weight = (OD - WT) × π × WT × Length × Density (7.98 g/cm³) to estimate total weight.
What is the HS code for 316H stainless steel pipes?
The standard HS Code for stainless steel welded or seamless pipes is 73063000.
Is 316H better than 316L for high-temperature applications?
Yes, 316H is better than 316L for high-temperature applications because its higher carbon content provides superior tensile and yield strength at elevated temperatures (above ~500°C), making it ideal for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and piping in power plants, whereas 316L (low carbon) excels in welded structures needing corrosion resistance but sacrifices high-temp strength.
