904L stainless steel

on
904L stainless steel consists of chromium, nickel, molybdenum and copper contents, these elements give type 904L stainless steel excellent properties to resist corrosion in dilute sulfuric acid because of addition of copper, 904L commonly is used in high pressure and corrosion environment where 316L and 317L perform poorly.
904L has high nickel composition with low carbon content, copper alloy adding improve its resistance to corrosion, the “L” in 904L stands for low carbon, it is typical Super Austenitic stainless steel, equivalent grades are DIN 1.4539 and UNS N08904, 904L has better properties than other austenitic stainless steels.

904L Stainless Steel Properties
  • Excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking due to the presence of high amounts of nickel content.
  • Pitting and crevice corrosion, intergranular corrosion resistance.
  • Grade 904L is less resistant to nitric acid.
  • Excellent formability, toughness and weldability, due to low carbon composition, it can be welded using any standard method, 904L cannot be hardened by heat treatment.
  • Non-magnetic, 904L is an Austenitic stainless steel, therefor 904L possesses Austenitic structure properties.
  • Heat Resistance, Grade 904L stainless steels offer good oxidation resistance. However, the structural stability of this grade collapses at high temperatures, particularly above 400°C.
  • Heat Treatment, Grade 904L stainless steels can be solution heat-treated at 1090 to 1175°C, following by rapid cooling. Thermal treatment is suitable for hardening these grades.
904L Stainless Steel Limitation

904L stainless steel price is expensive, due to high amount of molybdenum and nickel content, that leads to grade 904L is replaced by low cost grades, such as 316L, 317L, 2205, 6Mo and super duplex grades.

904L Stainless Steel Applications

Because of above properties, 904L stainless steel pipe can be used in many applications, these range from utility scrubber assemblies to acid and fertilizer production equipment, pulp and paper processing, seawater cooling facilities. Used in processes containing sulfuric or phosphoric acids, 904L displays its excellent resistance to corrosion from those acids. The paper, gas, pharmaceutical and chemical industries also use 904L for its resistance and use to 400-450 degrees C. Alloy 904L tubing can be welded, machined, heat treated, annealed, hardened and cold worked for many purposes.

  • Petroleum and petrochemical equipment, for example: Reactor
  • Storage and transportation equipment of sulphuric acid, for example: heat exchanger

Steel pipe world standards

Pipe manufacturing refers to how the individual pieces of pipe are made in a pipe mill; it does not refer to how the pieces are connected in the field to form a continuous pipeline. Each piece of pipe produced by a pipe mill is called a joint or a length (regardless of its measured length). In some cases, pipe is shipped to the pipeline construction site as “double joints”, where two pieces of pipe are pre-welded together to save time. Most of the pipe used for oil and gas pipelines is seamless or longitudinally welded, although spirally welded pipe is common for larger diameters. 1.

Orifice Flanges

Orifice flange for run installation should be so constructed, machined and attached to the that the inner surface of the passage extends through the orifice flange so that there is no recess at the orifice plate. Orifice flanges are used instead of the standard pipe flanges when orifice plate or flow nozzle is used. The basic purpose for this is to measuring the flow rate of either gases or liquids in the respective pipeline. These flanges are used in various industrial applications and are available in various sizes and materials.
