Stainless Steel 348 ERW Pipes

Stainless Steel 348 ERW Pipes are made of an austenitic stainless steel alloy that contains chromium, nickel, and columbium (niobium) as the primary alloying elements. The chemical composition also includes smaller quantities of carbon, silicon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen. The high levels of chromium provide excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, while the addition of niobium enhances the material's high-temperature stability. The carbon content of SS 348 ERW Pipes is kept low to minimize carbide precipitation during welding, which can result in intergranular corrosion. The nickel content provides increased toughness and improved corrosion resistance, making this alloy well-suited for applications in harsh environments. The addition of titanium in SS 348 ERW Pipes further enhances its high-temperature resistance and stability.

Stainless Steel 348 ERW Pipes are known for their high resistance to corrosion and high-temperature stability, making them suitable for use in harsh environments. They are widely used in industries such as petrochemical processing, chemical processing, high-temperature service, and high-pressure applications. They are also used to construct heat exchangers, boilers, and other high-temperature equipment. 348 SS ERW Pipes have excellent mechanical properties, including good ductility and tensile strength, making them suitable for construction and manufacturing applications. The high nickel content provides increased toughness and improved corrosion resistance, while the addition of titanium further enhances the material's high-temperature stability and resistance to corrosive environments. This makes SS 348 ERW Pipes ideal for applications requiring both high strength and high-temperature resistance.
