SUS304TB | 205 | 515 | 40 | 90 |
SUS309TB | 210 | 520 | 35 | 95 |
SUS310TB | 210 | 520 | 30 | 95 |
SUS312LTB | 220 | 530 | 40 | 90 |
SUS316LTB | 220 | 530 | 40 | 90 |
Steel Grade
The steel grades specified in JIS G3463 are designed to meet the requirements of various applications in the boiler and heat exchanger industries. Each grade has been formulated to provide specific properties that enhance performance and durability.
Application
These stainless steel tubes are widely used in:
- Boilers: For steam generation and heat transfer.
- Heat Exchangers: For efficient heat transfer between fluids.
- Pressure Vessels: To withstand high pressure and temperature conditions.
- Chemical Processing: In environments where corrosion resistance is critical.
Possible Alternative Grades
While the JIS G3463 grades are widely used, there are alternative grades that may be considered based on specific application requirements:
- SUS430: Ferritic stainless steel, suitable for moderate corrosion resistance.
- SUS321: Stabilized austenitic stainless steel, offering better resistance to intergranular corrosion.
- SUS347: Austenitic stainless steel with improved resistance to corrosion at high temperatures.
