Unlike 304L, Type 304H has a higher carbon content making the steel more suitable for use in applications where elevated temperatures are present. It is an austenitic chromium-nickel steel alloy and the greater carbon content delivers an increased tensile and yield strength.
304H Alloy is commonly found in the oil refining, gas and chemical industry and is used in industrial boilers, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, Pipelines and condensers. The material is also used throughout the power generation industry. Stainless Steel DIN 1.4301 Seamless TubesStockist, SS UNS S30409 Seamless Tubing, Stainless Steel 304H Cold Drawn Tubes, JIS SUS 304H Seamless Tubes, Stainless Steel 304H Seamless Tubing In India.
The material is recommended for use in ASME pressure vessels in working service above 525 0C due to the grade's heat resistant properties.
