ASTM A403 WP316L Tee | SA403 WP316/316L Stainless Steel Pipe Fittings

ASTM A403 WP316L tee is a high-quality butt weld stainless steel pipe fitting used for branch connections in piping systems. Manufactured according to ASTM A403 and ASME B16.9 standards, these fittings provide excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.

SA403 WP316 / WP316L tees are available in equal tee and reducing tee designs, making them suitable for distributing fluids or gases in stainless steel pipeline systems.

With the addition of molybdenum (Mo), WP316L stainless steel offers improved resistance to pitting corrosion, chloride corrosion, and chemical attack, making it ideal for aggressive environments.

These stainless steel tee fittings are widely used in:

  • Oil and gas pipelines

  • Petrochemical plants

  • Chemical processing facilities

  • Power generation plants

  • Marine and offshore industries

  • Food processing and pharmaceutical systems

We are a professional manufacturer and exporter of ASTM A403 WP316L tee, SA403 WP316/316L pipe fittings, stainless steel equal tee, and reducing tee fittings.
