Stainless Steel 316H Pipe Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in India — Nishra Overseas

Nishra Overseas is a leading Stainless Steel 316H Pipe manufacturer in India, and a dependable 316H Pipe supplier and exporter in India, serving high-temperature process, pressure vessel, and chemical industries across domestic and international markets. Whether you're sourcing Stainless Steel 316H Pipe in India for a single project or for ongoing supply, our stock depth and manufacturing capability are built to support both.

316H is the high-carbon version of 316, carrying carbon in the 0.04–0.10% range rather than the tighter limits used for standard 316 or 316L. That higher carbon content is deliberate: it improves creep strength and toughness at elevated temperatures, which is exactly what's needed in pressure vessel and high-temperature piping applications where long-term strength under sustained heat matters more than post-weld corrosion resistance. Stainless Steel 316H pipe carries a minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa and a minimum yield strength of 205 MPa, with roughly 40% elongation — figures worth confirming against your specific mill certificate.

Like the rest of the 316 family, 316H's molybdenum content gives it solid resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, and its austenitic structure holds up well even at cryogenic temperatures — a useful trait for equipment that cycles between hot process conditions and cold shutdown. With a melting point around 1400°C and good long- and short-term creep strength, 316H is a natural fit for pressure vessels, high-temperature piping, and equipment in the food processing, chemical, and marine sectors. As a trusted Stainless Steel 316H Pipe manufacturer, supplier, and exporter in India, Nishra Overseas' goal is straightforward: deliver certified, high-quality 316H pipe and tube at fair, competitive pricing, backed by dependable stock availability.

Technical Reference Data

Chemical Composition (%)

Grade	C	Si (max)	Mn (max)	P (max)	S (max)	Cr	Mo	Ni
316H	0.04–0.10	0.75	2.00	0.045	0.030	16.0–18.0	2.0–3.0	10.0–14.0

The defining difference from standard 316 is the carbon floor — 316H requires a minimum of 0.04% carbon, versus a 0.08% ceiling with no minimum for standard 316 — which is what gives it its elevated-temperature creep strength.
