Stainless steel is provided by Dial Tube and Steel through a consignment program only. A limited number of sizes are available. Please call for details.

The ASTM A269 specification covers nominal-wall-thickness, seamless and welded austenitic steel tubing for general corrosion-resisting and low- or high-temperature service. Upon completion, all material shall:
shall be furnished in the heat-treated condition.
conform to the chemical composition requirements.
different mechanical test requirements that includes, flaring test, flange test, hardness test, and reverse flattening test are presented.
shall be subjected to the non-destructive electric test or the hydrostatic test.

AISI Type 304 Stainless Steel

Subcategory: Ferrous Metal; Heat Resisting; Metal; Stainless Steel; T 300 Series Stainless Steel
Close Analogs: UNS S30400; AMS 5501, 5513, 5560, 5565; ASME SA182, SA194(8), SA213, SA240; ASTM A167, A182, A193, A194

AISI Type 304 Stainless Steel

Subcategory: Ferrous Metal; Heat Resisting; Metal; Stainless Steel; T 300 Series Stainless Steel
Material Notes: Austenitic Cr-Ni stainless steel. Better corrosion resistance than Type 302. High ductility, excellent drawing, forming, and spinning properties. Essentially non-magnetic, becomes slightly magnetic when cold worked. Low carbon content means less carbide precipitation in the heat-affected zone during welding and a lower susceptibility to intergranular corrosion.

Applications: beer kegs, bellows, chemical equipment, coal hopper linings, cooking equipment, cooling coils, cryogenic vessels, dairy equipment, evaporators, flatware utensils, feedwater tubing, flexible metal hose, food processing equipment, hospital surgical equipment, hypodermic needles, kitchen sinks, marine equipment and fasteners, nuclear vessels, oil well filter screens, refrigeration equipment, paper industry, pots and pans, pressure vessels, sanitary fittings, valves, shipping drums, spinning, still tubes, textile dyeing equipment, tubing.

Corrosion Resistance: resists most oxidizing acids and salt spray.
