AISI 347 · UNS S34700
An SS 347 bend is a pipe bend with a larger radius than a standard elbow, made from SS 347 to ASTM A403 WP347. Bends of 3D, 5D and larger radius give smoother flow than elbows and suit slurry, pigging and pipeline service. They are induction- or cold-bent from pipe.

SS 347 Bend — questions buyers ask
Bend or elbow — what is the difference?
An elbow has a fixed 1D or 1.5D radius to ASME B16.9; a bend is bent from pipe to a larger radius, typically 3D or 5D.
Which standard covers SS 347 bends?
The material is ASTM A403 WP347; dimensions follow ASME B16.49 · project specs. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a SS 347 bend?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 mill certificates as standard, 3.2 with third-party inspection on request, plus dimensional and PMI reports.
