Stainless Steel Pipe

Stainless Steel grade is one of the most commonly used alloys owing to its versatility. It is a standard 18/8 alloy available in various forms and finishes, when compared to other grades. This pipes have a stable austenitic structure, which makes it possible to be deep drawn without immediate annealing.

It can be brake or roll formed into different components for industrial, transportation and architectural purposes. These pipes are resistant to a wide range of corrosive media and atmospheric environments. Pitting and crevice corrosion can be of concern in warm chloride environments. Its alloy may also undergo stress corrosion cracking at temperature above 60degree Celsius. High temperature strength executed by this grade pipes makes them usable in structural and pressure containing applications.SS pipes are used in applications like food processing equipment, kitchen appliances, heat exchangers, Architectural paneling, Chemical containers, Threaded fasteners and other industrial purposes, as well.

It can be made available in various finishes and sizes to meet application requirements.

Advantages Of Industrial Stainless Pipe:     

High temperature resistance;
High nitrogen and high nitrogen
Anti-earthquake, fire, rain, long life, no maintenance;
Installation is simple, shorten the construction period;

Environmental protection, etc.

ASTM A106

ASTM A106 seamless pressure pipe (also known as ASME SA106 pipe) is commonly used in the construction of oil and gas refineries, power plants, petrochemical plants, boilers, and ships where the piping must transport fluids and gases that exhibit higher temperatures and pressure levels. All forged ASTM A106 GR. B Carbon Steel Seamless Pipes should be solution annealed according to the heat treatment section to restore the ferrite – austenite equilibrium. The weld metallurgy of ASME SA 106 GR. B Carbon Steel Welded Pipes, as with other ferrite – austenitic stainless steels, has a ferrite structure during solidification. And when the weld metal temperature of ASTM A106 GR. B Carbon Steel EFW Pipes is in the 2100 Degree F to 2640 Degree F (1150 Degree C to 1450 Degree C) range, it is possible for the HAZ to increase its ferrite content. It is the cooling of the high temp ferrite of ASME SA 106 GR. B Carbon Steel ERW Pipes that allows retransformation into austenite, yielding a ferrite – austenite weld structure. Cooling rates of ASTM A106 GR. B Carbon Steel Round Pipes are extremely important as getting the weld area too hot, or using too much weld energy, leads to cooling rates being too slow, allowing the formation of embrittling sigma phase in the heat affected zone. Conversely, if not enough weld energy is used in ASME SA 106 GR. B Carbon Steel Square Pipes, then the cooling rates are too fast, leading to too much ferrite in the weld metal and a fragile weld joint.

Square Steel tube is strong, tough and durable. It can also be rectangular. Steel tubing often incorporates different alloys such as aluminum, manganese, titanium and tungsten. Its versatility lends it to a range of applications in different industries. Each year millions of tonnes of steel tubing is produced.
Steel tubing can be welded or seamless. Seamless tubes are made by passing the molten steel over a piercing rod to create a hollow tube. Welded tubes are made from curling a rolling plate and welding the seam together. In the past, seamless tubes were stronger than welded tubes. However advances in technology have allowed welded tubes to have sufficient strength to replace welded tubes for many applications.
Rectangular and square HSS are also commonly known as tube steel or box section. Circular HSS are sometimes mistakenly called steel pipe, although steel pipe is actually dimensioned and classed differently from HSS. (HSS dimensions are based on exterior dimensions of the profile; pipes are also manufactured to an exterior tolerance, albeit to a different standard.) The corners of HSS are heavily rounded, having a radius which is approximately twice the wall thickness. The wall thickness is uniform around the section.
Applications For Square Steel Tube
Square Steel tubes are widely used in industrial and domestic settings.  In industry, steel tubes are valued for their strength and ability to withstand extremes of temperature, pressure and destructive elements. In domestic settings, steel tubes are used in appliances and gas pipes. If you look behind your refrigerator you’ll likely see some steel tubing.         
Top steel tubing applications include:
Construction and Engineering
Automobile Manufacturing

Stainless steels are high-alloy steels, which have high corrosion resistance when compared to other steels due to the presence of large amounts of chromium. Based on their crystalline structure, they are further divided into ferritic, austenitic, and martensitic steels. Another group of stainless steels are known as precipitation-hardened steels. They are the combination of martensitic and austenitic steels.

Grade 201 stainless steel has good formability, corrosion resistance, and fabricability. It is similar to that of 301 stainless steel.

Grade 201 stainless steel is annealed at 1010-1093°C (1850-2000°F). Temperature should not be exceeded above 2000°F in order to avoid scaling. It is rapidly cooled to prevent crystallization of carbides.

Grade 201 stainless steel is used in structural members, different kinds of severely formed parts, and siding and roofing for railway cars and trailers.
