seamless pipe grade 304/304l

The 316 stainless steel pipe has become an indispensable material for the industrial sector. This alloy of iron and chrome is recognized for its high resistance to corrosion, as well as its durability. 316 stainless steel tubing can be produced in both seamless and welded tubes to meet specific customer needs.

UNS N08367 also commonly referred to as alloy AL6XN is a low carbon, high purity, nitrogen-bearing “super-austenitic” nickel-molybdenum alloy with excellent resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion.

SMO 254 Pipes can withstand high mechanical stress and Alloy 254 SMO Pipe high pressure work in high temperatures and corrosive environments.

ASTM A312 TP316 is a standard specification for seamless, straight-seam welded, and heavily cold worked welded austenitic stainless steel pipes used in high-temperature and general corrosive service applications. The 316 Seamless Industrial Steel Pipe is made from a combination of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum, which gives SS 316 Seamless Tube excellent resistance to corrosion and rust.

316L 1.4401 S31603 Stainless Steel Pipe is a highly versatile and durable pipe option commonly used in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. This SS UNS S31603 pipe is made from high quality 316L stainless steel with excellent resistance to corrosion, oxidation and staining, making it ideal for harsh environments or high stress applications.

AL6XN is a superaustenitic stainless steel with outstanding resistance to chloride pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. AL6XN is a 6 moly alloy that was developed for and is used in highly aggressive environments. It has high nickel (24%), molybdenum (6.3%), nitrogen and chromium contents that give it excellent resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking, chloride pitting, and exceptional general corrosion resistance. AL6XN is primarily used for its improved pitting and crevice corrosion resistance in chlorides. It is a formable and weldable stainless steel.

Type 316 stainless steel tubing is similar to 304, but with the addition of molybdenum, which improves the alloys corrosion resistance. The austenitic structure allows excellent toughness, even down to extremely low temperatures. These grades have excellent weldability, with or without the addition of filler metal.

The fusion welding properties of stainless steel 304 are excellent with or without fillers. The recommended filler rod and electrode for use with 304 stainless steel is grade 308 stainless steel. For 304L, the recommended packing is 308L. Heavy welded sections may require post weld annealing. The 304L does not require this step. If post weld heat treatment is not possible, grade 321 may be used.

Stainless steel is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains at least 11% chromium and may contain elements such as carbon, other nonmetals and metals to obtain other desired properties. Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion results from the chromium, which forms a passive film that can protect the material and self-heal in the presence of oxygen
Completely and infinitely recyclable, stainless steel is the ¡°green material¡± par excellence. In fact, within the construction sector, its actual recovery rate is close to 100%.
Stainless steel is also environmentally neutral and inert, and its longevity ensures it meets the needs of sustainable construction. Furthermore, it does not leach compounds that could modify its composition when in contact with elements like water.
Stainless steel must contain at least 10.5 percent chromium. Depending on the grade, it may contain much higher chromium levels, and additional alloying ingredients like molybdenum, nickel, titanium, aluminum, copper, nitrogen, phosphorous or selenium.
In addition to these environmental benefits, stainless steel is also aesthetically appealing, extremely hygienic, easy to maintain, highly durable and offers a wide variety of aspects. As a result, stainless steel can be found in many everyday objects. It also plays a prominent role in an array of industries, including energy, transportation, building, research, medicine, food and logistics.

304/304L stainless steel pipe is used as stainless heat-resistant steel for food equipment, general chemical equipment, and atomic energy industrial equipment. The rust resistance of 304/304L stainless steel is stronger than that of 200 series stainless steel. High temperature is also better, can be as high as 1000-1200 degrees. 304 stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance and good resistance to intergranular corrosion.

The most basic difference between grade 304 and grade 316 stainless steels is that 316 tends to have more nickel and a bit of molybdenum in the mix. The general mechanical properties of the two metals are mostly comparable. The increased nickel content and the inclusion of molybdenum allows for grade 316 stainless steel to have better chemical resistance than 304 stainless steel. It¡¯s ability to resist acids and chlorides, including salt, makes grade 316 ideal for chemical processing and marine applications.

Steel pipes can be disintegrated on the basis of its application. Typical applications of steel pipes are in the area of water pipelines, industrial water lines, oil pipe lines, cross country pipe line, agriculture and irrigation pipes, tube lines for natural gas, chemical industries, automobile industry, construction industries and other purposes.

Due to its excellent corrosion resistance and value, 304 stainless steel pipe is the most commonly used type of pipe in the world. Stainless steel 304 piping can withstand corrosion from most oxidizing acids. Due to its durability, the 304 is easy to sterilize and is ideal for kitchen and food applications.

SMO 254 ERW piping is commonly used in seawater desalination, flue-gas cleaning, heat exchangers, etc. SMO 254 Welded Pipe is a very high end molybdenum and nitrogen alloyed super austenitic stainless steel with a low carbon content.

The increased nickel content in 316 SS helps improve its corrosion resistance compared to 304. Therefore, 316 is recommended for use in coastal areas with increased salt content, or in areas with high levels of polluting or corrosive chemicals, especially chlorides.

304 stainless steel is a symbol of many of the most commonly used or has become standard stainless steel products. 304, 304l may be an important component of 300 series steels (as described in the SAE requirements) processing a range of austenitic chromium-nickel alloys. They are also known as 18/8 stainless steels because their elemental composition includes approximately 18% chromium and 8% nickel by weight.

304L stainless steel pipe is a low carbon variant of grade 304 – the steel can be welded without problems with carbon precipitation (the precipitation of chromium carbide when heat is applied during welding depletes the steel of chromium, reducing its resistance to -corrosion/oxidation Effect).

Stainless steel is one of the most popular and versatile materials. Seamless stainless steel pipe is used in applications where high temperature strength and superior corrosion resistance are critical.

316 contains many similar chemical and mechanical properties to 304 stainless steel. To the naked eye, the two metals look the same. However, the chemical composition of 316, consisting of 16% chromium, 10% nickel and 2% molybdenum, is the main difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel.

It is common for 316 and 316L to be stocked in “Dual Certified” form – mainly in plate and pipe. These items have chemical and mechanical properties complying with both 316 and 316L specifications. Such dual certified product does not meet 316H specification and may be unacceptable for high temperature applications.

304/304L stainless steel has good cold and hot working properties, and can use a variety of cold and hot working processes to produce metallurgical products such as forgings, bars, wires, plates, strips and wires. The hot working temperature range is 900-1180 ¡æ. Cold working is relatively easy and not particularly difficult, because these two steels are easy to cold harden, and when the cold deformation is too large, intermediate annealing is required to facilitate further processing.

SMO 254 Hexagonal Pipes is subject to pitting and crevice corrosion in warm chloride environments and to stress corrosion cracking above about 60 Degree C.

There are hundreds of different grades of stainless steel on the market. Each of these unique stainless steel formulations provides a degree of corrosion resistance that exceeds that of ordinary steel. The existence of these stainless steel variants can cause some confusion – especially when the two stainless steel alloys are nearly identical in name and formula. This is the case with 304 and 304L stainless steel.
