A Stainless Steel 347 Seamless Pipe is a niobium (columbium) stabilized austenitic stainless steel pipe manufactured from a solid billet without any welded joint. The seamless manufacturing process provides a uniform grain structure, excellent mechanical strength, and reliable performance under high pressure and elevated temperatures.
The addition of niobium helps stabilize the stainless steel by preventing chromium carbide precipitation during welding and prolonged exposure to heat. This gives SS 347 Seamless Pipes excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion, oxidation and thermal fatigue, making them suitable for applications where conventional stainless steel grades may become sensitized.
Manufactured in accordance with ASTM A312, ASTM A358, ASME SA312, and other international standards, Stainless Steel 347 Seamless Pipes are available in various sizes, schedules, wall thicknesses, and surface finishes. They are widely used in refineries, petrochemical plants, power generation facilities, chemical processing industries, heat exchangers, boilers, aerospace components and marine applications where long-term reliability is essential.
Stainless Steel 347 belongs to the austenitic stainless steel family but offers an important advantage over conventional grades such as SS 304. It is stabilized with niobium (columbium) and tantalum, which help prevent chromium carbide precipitation during welding and prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures. This stabilization significantly improves resistance to intergranular corrosion while maintaining excellent strength and oxidation resistance.
Because of these properties, SS 347 Seamless Pipes are widely used in applications operating between 800°F and 1500°F (427°C to 816°C), where ordinary stainless steel grades may lose performance. The material also offers excellent weldability, good formability and long service life in demanding industrial environments.
Compared to SS 304, Grade 347 provides superior high-temperature stability and better resistance to sensitization after welding. When compared with SS 321, which uses titanium as the stabilizing element, SS 347 uses niobium to achieve similar protection against intergranular corrosion and is often preferred for applications involving extensive welding and continuous high-temperature service.
These characteristics make Stainless Steel 347 Seamless Pipes an excellent choice for refineries, petrochemical plants, power stations, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, aerospace components and chemical processing equipment where reliability under thermal stress is essential.
Stainless Steel 347 Seamless Pipes are widely used in industries where high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and protection against intergranular corrosion are essential. Their seamless construction, combined with niobium stabilization, makes them suitable for critical process piping systems operating under demanding thermal and pressure conditions.
