ASTM A312 TP 304 Seamless Stainless Steel Pipe Manufacturing Process and Heat Treatment
ASTM A312 TP 304 seamless stainless steel pipe adopts seamless manufacturing process, manufactured by hot rolling or cold rolling method without welds. This manufacturing process ensures the overall strength and pressure resistance of the steel pipe, suitable for applications in high pressure and corrosive environments.
ASTM A312 TP 304 seamless stainless steel pipe is usually solution treated to ensure the best corrosion resistance and mechanical properties:
Solution treatment: The steel is heated to 1040-1120°C and then cooled rapidly to maintain the austenite structure and improve the toughness and corrosion resistance of the material.
