Corrosion test of 316 Stainless Steel pipe

Great video

Hi Peter, thanks for the video. I am considering to execute a test like that as well. I was wondering if I should use tap water or distilled water. Would the rust still occur in case I use distilled water? The reason I am considering distilled water is that the test can be repeated unrelated to where you are as tap water will be different depending on your location.

Hi Peter, would it be possible for 316 stainless steel to be magnetic? I mean after some special manufacturing processes, such as bending, extrusion, die-casting...

I left 316 ss in a salt and concentrated bleach slurry for 6 months (replenishing the evaporated bleach) and thr surface did oxidize but there was no pitting or corrosion under microscope. 304 did not fare well. Half the thread were completely corroded and missing. Inconel 625 sample was subjected to the same plus additional paracetic acid baths. No surface imperfection or discoloration under microscope.

Yes I don't know why more people don't know about the 316 stainless over 304. Just 2 worlds apart when it comes to corrosion. Some of the finest stainless you can get in my option. 316 all day long.

Thanks for the content, I wonder what stainless steel it is. There many kinds of stainless steel in the market i wonder what is suitable for ship building

316 is specifically designed to resist salt corrosion and is often used in "marine" applications. It is more expensive than 304 however.

This is 316 stainless steel. (as the title suggests)
