SS 304 / 304L / 304H Pipe

Stainless Steel Grade 304 is the most versatile and widely used stainless steel in the world. Ashwin Steel supplies an extensive inventory of 304, 304L (Low Carbon), and 304H (High Carbon) pipes. Known for its excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and weldability, the 304 series is the standard choice for countless commercial and industrial piping systems.

Our 304 pipes easily withstand atmospheric corrosion and a wide range of organic and inorganic chemicals. The 304L variant eliminates carbide precipitation during welding, making it ideal for heavy-gauge welded components, while 304H provides superior strength at elevated temperatures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

You should choose 304L when the pipe requires heavy welding. The lower carbon content in 304L prevents chromium carbide precipitation at the grain boundaries during welding, protecting the joint from intergranular corrosion.
While SS 304 is highly corrosion-resistant in normal atmospheres, it is susceptible to pitting and crevice corrosion in warm chloride environments (like seawater). For marine applications, SS 316 is recommended.
The "H" stands for High Carbon (0.04 - 0.10%). This slightly higher carbon content provides the steel with greater tensile and yield strength at high temperatures, making 304H ideal for high-heat environments like power generation.
