ASTM A312 TP304L Stainless Steel Pipes

ASTM A312 TP304L is the low-carbon version of 304 stainless steel, designed to offer superior weldability, reduced carbide precipitation, and enhanced corrosion resistance. TP304L stainless steel pipes are widely used in chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food industries, water treatment, and structural applications due to their cleanability, high strength, and excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion.

Manufactured as Seamless, Welded, ERW & EFW, TP304L pipes meet ASTM A312 / ASME SA312 quality standards and ensure superior performance in highly sensitive and corrosive environments.

Key Features

  • Low Carbon Content for excellent weldability
  • Superior Corrosion Resistance in chemical & atmospheric environments
  • Prevents Carbide Precipitation during welding
  • Hygienic Material ideal for food, dairy & pharma sectors
  • Suitable for Cryogenic Conditions
  • High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
  • Durable, Rust-Free, and Easy to Fabricate
  • Available in a wide range of schedules & sizes
