ASTM A269 TP304 Stainless Steel Seamless Tube
ASTM A269 TP304 is an austenitic grade covering standard seamless and welded configurations. These pipes are designed with nickel, chromium, and other alloy components that provide enhanced resistance to corrosive and oxidizing media. With a density of 8 g/cm³ and melting point of 1400°C, these tubes offer excellent mechanical properties and perform reliably across various pressures and temperatures.
Product Configurations
Seamless Tubing: Produced when hot billets are passed through metal extrusion for precise shaping, offering exceptional strength and load-carrying capacity for high-temperature service.
Cold Drawn Seamless Pipe: Processed immediately after hot rolling at room temperature, featuring excellent surface finish and enhanced resistance to aggressive media.
Welded Pipe: Manufactured using standard welding procedures, providing a cost-effective alternative for low-pressure and low-temperature applications.
ERW Tube: Created when high-voltage current passes through tubes to weld them in longitudinal cross-section, customizable in various sizes without requiring filler material.
