Marine Offshore Grade High Pressure Stainless Steel Butt Weld Tee 2500lbs SCH80S 316L
The Marine Offshore Grade High Pressure Stainless Steel Butt Weld Tee is purpose-engineered for the extreme conditions of offshore oil and gas platforms, FPSO vessels, and marine engineering projects. Fabricated from ASTM A403 WP316L with enhanced molybdenum content (2.0-3.0%) for superior pitting and crevice corrosion resistance in seawater and chloride-rich marine atmospheres, this high pressure tee is designed to ASME B16.9 with wall thickness sufficient for 2500lbs (Class 2500) pressure rating at ambient temperature. The SCH80S minimum wall thickness combined with WP316L material delivers PREN ≥24 for chloride pitting resistance equivalent to seawater service requirements. Each marine offshore grade high pressure stainless steel butt weld tee undergoes hydrostatic pressure testing at 1.5* rated pressure, with NDT and full certification documentation supporting DNV, ABS, and Lloyds Register marine classification requirements.
