SS 304 Welded Pipe: Why 304 for welded pipes
Welded (ERW / EFW) pipe is economical in larger diameters and thinner walls, and accepted by most codes with the right testing. In SS 304, 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 304 is picked for general corrosion resistance, food, water and architectural work. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Food & dairy — Tanks, piping and equipment that must be cleaned daily. |
| Welding to carbon steel | ER309L (or E309L electrode) is the usual filler when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ER308 / ER308L (AWS A5.9) |
