Characteristics of 304 Stainless Steel Seamless Pipe

304 stainless steel seamless pipe is the resistance of air, steam, water and other corrosive medium and weak acid, alkali, salt and other chemical etching medium corrosion of steel. Also known as acid-resistant stainless steel. 304 stainless steel seamless pipe corrosion resistance depends on the alloying elements contained in the steel. Chromium is the corrosion resistance of stainless steel to obtain the basic elements, when the steel contains chromium content reaches about 12% chromium and oxygen role of corrosive media, the steel surface of a thin oxide film (from the passive film) , can prevent further corrosion of the steel substrate. In addition to chromium, 304 stainless steel seamless pipe commonly used alloying elements nickel, molybdenum, titanium, niobium, copper, nitrogen, etc., in order to meet the various uses of stainless steel organization and performance requirements. 304 stainless steel seamless pipe is a hollow round bar steel, widely used in petroleum, chemical, medical, food, light industry, machinery and instruments and other industrial pipes and mechanical structural components. In addition, bending, torsional strength of the same, lighter, so it is widely used in the manufacture of mechanical parts and engineering structures. Also used in producing all kinds of conventional weapons, the barrel, shells and so on.

First, 304 stainless steel seamless pipe wall thickness of the thicker it is, the more economical and practical, the thinner the wall thickness, it will be a substantial increase in processing costs;
Second, 304 stainless steel seamless pipe process can determine its limitations, generally seamless precision low: uneven wall thickness of the inner tube outer brightness is low, the high cost of fixed length, and also within the outer pitting, black spots difficult to remove ;

Third, 304 stainless steel seamless pipe detection and shaping must be processed offline. Therefore, it reflects its superiority in high-pressure, high-strength mechanical structure the timber.
