These products can be supplied in the following grades:
Austenitic Grades: TP304, 304L, 316, 316L, 316Ti, 317L, 321, 321H, 347, 347H.
Ferritic Grades: TP409
Duplex: UNS 31803, UNS 32205, UNS 32304, LDX2101
Edges of the Stainless Steel Plate cut to size are prepared and pre-bent followed by roll forming into pipes. It is prewelded and then the final welding is done using filler material. All welders, welding operators and weld procedures are qualified to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section-IX. Heat treatment is done on continuous roller hearth furnace or batch furnace. The pipe is nowsized, pickled & passivated.
