Grade 304 stainless steel welded pipes are the industry standard due to their superior corrosion resistance, durability, and versatility. Specifically, for applications requiring smaller diameter and medium pressure specifications, pipes with a 13.7 mm diameter and Schedule 10 (Sch 10) wall thickness offer an ideal balance of strength, fluid handling efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
SS welded pipes combine the benefits of seamless construction and the economical production of welded pipes. The term "seamless" refers to the manufacturing process in which the pipe is made from a single piece of metal without any welded joints, offering superior structural integrity. These pipes are especially advantageous for high-pressure applications or environments where even the smallest flaw in the pipe could lead to failure.
The Grade 304 stainless steel used in these pipes is a chromium-nickel alloy known for its excellent resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and high temperatures. This makes it an excellent material for piping in industries like chemical processing, food and beverage, oil and gas, and even marine applications.
