A practical guide from the team at Puranmal Sons & Ceramix Syndicate.
316L is a low-carbon grade of stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance. In plumbing it's used for premium, long-life and hygienic water supply where a metal pipe is preferred over plastic.
You'll see SS 316L in high-end residences, hospitals, hotels and applications where durability, hygiene and a premium finish matter. It resists corrosion and handles pressure and temperature well.
CPVC is lighter, cheaper and easier to install, and suits most homes. SS 316L costs more but offers metal strength, longevity and a premium look — chosen where the project specification calls for it.
We supply SS 316L plumbing systems (Prime Gold) alongside our plastic piping range. Tell us your requirement for pricing and availability.
