Stainless Steel 348H Reducing Cross Pipe Fittings

Stainless Steel 348H is a stainless-steel alloy and is often used when a higher level of corrosion resistance is required. Its chemical composition consists mainly of chromium, which provides excellent oxidation resistance at up to 1,900 degrees Fahrenheit and high-temperature strength. It also contains minor amounts of nickel and other elements like molybdenum and titanium that provide superior creep strength at higher temperatures. Finally, these reducing cross-pipe fittings are also composed of iron, silicon, and manganese for formability and improved weldability. This makes the 348H grade stainless steel ideal for creating connecting solid apparatus like reducing crosses for pipes used in any number of industrial applications.

Stainless Steel 348H Reducing Cross Pipe Fittings are primarily used in environments with high-temperature and/or corrosive chemicals. These fittings are designed to resist the aggressive effects of these chemicals while withstanding temperatures up to 1149˚C. The steel contains nickel and chromium, giving it superior strength and compatibility relative to other types of steel. This brand of stainless steel is highly resistant to the formation of carbide precipitation, making it particularly attractive for applications that would otherwise be impossible with alternative metals or alloys. Its hardness, resistance to corrosion, weldability, and many other properties make 348H Stainless Steel Reducing Cross Pipe Fittings an ideal option for industrial piping networks.
