Stainless Steel 304/304L Pipes and Tubes

SS 304 pipes and tubes are the standard 18-8 grade contain chrome and nickel content. After annealing operations, it becomes non magnetic. However, the cold working operation it changes its structure to magnetic. Ordinarily, SS 304 pipes and tubes are most used SS pipes and tubes in industrial sectors. These SS pipes and tubes effortlessly welded. Moreover, it is deep drawing is preferred because of its high ductility.SS 304L grade pipes and tubes have excellent resistance to the high temperature of 1650 deg F. It is considerable without scaling. The higher temperature for fluctuating exposure is 1500 deg F. Since 304L is an additional low carbon version of pipes and tubes. These can frequently utilize in the as-welded condition.

However, annealing is not an issue. Even it serves good performance in severely corrosive environments except for applications that require stress relieving.Moreover, these pipes and tubes have good welding feature, so it can be weld by all standard welding operations. Also, special consideration is paid to prevent hot cracking in the weld zone. The severe spinning and forming are followed through the annealing process to relieve stress.

Features of Stainless Steel 304/304L Pipes & Tubes:
