SS 347 Capillary Tube: Why 347 for capillary tubes
Capillary tubes have very small diameters and walls for instrumentation, thermometry and medical devices. In SS 347, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Stainless tubulars are the default for corrosive and hygienic service. SS 347 is picked for welded high-temperature piping in refineries and power plants. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Refinery hydroprocessing — Reactor effluent piping and exchangers. |
| Welding to carbon steel | ER309L (or E309L electrode) is the usual filler when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ER347 (AWS A5.9) |
