Stainless Steel 305 Pipes consist of carbon (≤0.12%), chromium (17-19%), nickel (10.5-13%), manganese (≤2%), silicon (≤1%), phosphorus (≤0.045%), and sulfur (≤0.03%), which exhibit superior corrosion resistance and high ductility. Their mechanical characteristics are tensile strength of ≥515 MPa, yield strength of ≥205 MPa, elongation of ≥40%, and hardness of ≤201 Brinell (HB). The physical characteristics have a density of 8.0 g/cm³, melting point of 1400-1450°C, thermal conductivity of 16.3 W/m·K, and electrical resistivity of 720 nΩ·m, making them suitable for deep-drawing and non-hardening purposes.
Stainless Steel 305 ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) pipes are made by welding stainless steel strips, offering excellent formability and corrosion resistance, ideal for applications in automotive and food processing industries.
Stainless Steel 305 EFW (Electric Fusion Welded) pipes are produced through fusion welding of stainless steel plates, providing strong, durable pipes with high corrosion resistance, suitable for structural and industrial uses.
Stainless Steel 305 LSAW (Longitudinally Submerged Arc Welded) pipes are manufactured using submerged arc welding, offering high strength and corrosion resistance, ideal for large-diameter applications and demanding environments.
Stainless Steel 305 Seamless pipes are created without welding, providing uniform strength and excellent resistance to corrosion, ideal for applications requiring high ductility and ease of fabrication.
Stainless Steel 305 Welded pipes are made by welding stainless steel sections, offering versatility and cost-effectiveness with excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for automotive, food processing, and structural applications.
Stainless Steel 305 Square pipes feature a square cross-section, offering aesthetic appeal and structural support with excellent formability and corrosion resistance for architectural and industrial applications.
Stainless Steel 305 Pipes find applications in food processing, chemical industry, and marine conditions because of their superior corrosion resistance and non-hardening behavior. They have high nickel composition, which suits them for deep-drawing processes like kitchen appliances, automotive trim, and decorative architectural features. Stainless Steel 305 Pipes also find applications in dairy processing plants, brewery equipment, storage tanks, and piping for corrosive or acidic environments. They are also used in medical equipment, electrical enclosures, and industrial equipment, where resistance to oxidation, ease of fabrication, and durability are required for long-term performance.
Stainless Steel 305 Pipes are supplied with test certificates such as Mill Test Certificate (MTC) as per EN 10204 3.1/3.2, third-party inspection reports, and raw material test certificates, ensuring they meet international quality standards. They are properly wrapped in wooden crates, bundles, or with plastic-capped ends to avoid damage during shipping. Delivery is prompt and customized according to customer requirements, with individual shipping options for safe and timely delivery across the globe.
