904l stainless steel pipe fittings

904L exhibits superior tensile strength and impressive low carbon content, allowing it to easily resist corrosion in sulfuric acid. This distinctive alloy, initially designed for the chemical industry, is an austenitic stainless steel containing high alloy elements. It is characterized by exceptional formability, weldabilty, and corrosion-resistance. As such, 904L is widely employed in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.

Non-magnetic austenitic stainless steel 904L impresses with its enhanced corrosion resistance derived from its higher chromium and molybdenum content compared to 316L stainless steel. As it is a low carbon alloy, it creates a weld that is more resistant to degradation. 904L is a metal of choice for the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries due to its excellent formability and weldability properties.

Endowed with 23%% chromium, 8% nickel and 3% molybdenum, 904L is a type of austenitic stainless steel. The molybdenum imparts resistance against pitting as well as crevice corrosion, while the elevated contents of chromium and nickel allow for superior resistance when compared to 316L stainless steel. All in all, 904L steel showcases remarkable formability, weldability and corrosion resistance properties – making it ideally suited for applications such as food & beverage production, pharmaceutical research, and chemical processing.

With its impressive corrosion resistance due to a higher chromium composition and molybdenum inclusion, 904L stainless steel is a non-magnetic austenitic variety. Its low carbon form prevents weakening from weld decay, and this efficient steel is ideal for formability and weldability – making it the go-to choice for a range of industries from food and beverage to pharmaceuticals and chemical.
