Manufacturing Process
Seamless Pipes
Seamless stainless steel pipes are produced through a process involving hot extrusion or cold drawing. This process ensures a uniform structure and high strength, making seamless pipes ideal for high-pressure applications.
Welded Pipes
Welded stainless steel pipes are produced by rolling stainless steel sheets into a tubular shape and welding the seam. These pipes are typically less expensive than seamless pipes and are suitable for applications with lower pressure requirements.
Heat Treatment
Heat treatment processes such as annealing and solution treatment are applied to stainless steel pipes to enhance their mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. This involves heating the pipes to a specific temperature and then cooling them rapidly.
Surface Finish
The surface finish of JIS G3463 stainless steel pipes can vary depending on the application. Common finishes include:
- Pickled: A matte finish achieved by acid treatment, providing good corrosion resistance.
- Polished: A smooth, reflective finish that enhances the appearance and further improves corrosion resistance.

201 stainless steel pipe is a type of pipe made from stainless steel alloy 201, which belongs to the austenitic family of stainless steels. This alloy is known for its economical properties and corrosion resistance, making it a popular choice for various applications. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the characteristics, production methods, applications, and benefits of 201 stainless steel pipe.
the 301 stainless steel pipe has garnered significant attention for its remarkable attributes and diverse applications. This article delves into the intricacies of this exceptional alloy, elucidating its properties, manufacturing process, and potential uses.
The distinction between 304 and 304L stainless steel pipes lies primarily in their chemical composition, mechanical properties, and applications. Both grades belong to the austenitic family of stainless steels, renowned for their exceptional corrosion resistance, formability, and weldability.
Type 316/ 316L/316H are austenitic stainless steel intended for use in applications that require high strength, toughness and workability, as well as enhanced corrosion resistance. Compare to 304 stainless steel, 316 contains a higher percentage of molybdenum (Mo 2%-3%) and nickel (Ni 10% to 14%), Molybdenum has better overall corrosion resistance, especially for pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.
Stainless steel pipe is primarily used in piping systems for the transport of fluids or gases. We manufacture steel pipe from a steel alloy containing nickel as well as chromium, which give stainless steel its corrosion-resistant properties.
DIN 17175 is designed for elevated temperature purposes, ABTER STEEL supplies following steel grades: St35.8, St45.8, 15Mo3, 13CrMo44, 10CrMo910. DIN 17175 seamless steel pipes are widely used in heat exchange appliances.
