What is 304 Stainless Steel Pipe / Tube?

304 stainless steel is the most widely used austenitic stainless steel, known for excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and weldability. It contains 18-20% chromium and 8-10.5% nickel.

304 stainless steel pipe is one of our core products, available in both seamless and welded construction for a wide range of industrial and architectural applications.

Manufactured to ASTM A312, ASTM A213, and ASTM A269 standards, our 304 pipes offer excellent corrosion resistance, good weldability, and reliable performance across diverse operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of 304 stainless steel pipes do you supply?
We supply both seamless 304 pipes (ASTM A312 / A213) and welded/ERW 304 pipes (ASTM A312 / A269). Also available: precision tubes, decorative tubes, square tubes, and rectangular tubes.
What sizes of 304 pipe are available?
Outer diameter ranges from 6mm (1/4") to 630mm (24"). Wall thickness from 0.5mm to 40mm. Standard length is 6 meters (20ft), cut-to-length available.
What's the difference between seamless and welded pipe?
Seamless pipe is made from a solid billet pierced and rolled without a weld seam, offering higher pressure rating and uniformity. Welded (ERW) pipe is made from strip rolled and welded, generally lower cost for similar applications where pressure is not extreme.
What are 304 stainless steel pipes used for?
Common applications include food and beverage processing, chemical handling, water treatment, architectural railings, furniture tubing, heat exchangers, and general industrial piping.
Can 304 pipe be used for drinking water?
Yes, 304 stainless steel is safe for potable water applications and is widely used in plumbing and water treatment systems. It meets NSF/ANSI 61 standards for drinking water system components.
What pressure rating does 304 pipe have?
Pressure rating depends on pipe size, wall thickness, and temperature. For example, Schedule 40 304 seamless pipe can typically handle up to 140-200 bar at room temperature. We can calculate exact ratings for your application.
Do you provide pickled and passivated pipe?
Yes, our seamless pipes are typically supplied pickled and passivated (annealed & pickled finish). Welded pipes can be supplied with polished interior or exterior as required.
How is 304 pipe packaged for shipping?
Pipes are bundled and secured with steel straps, with end caps to protect threads/openings. For export, we use seaworthy packaging with wooden pallets or crates as needed.
