About Stainless Steel 304 / 304L / 304H Flanges?

Stainless steel flanges with grades 304, 304L, and 304H are components used in piping systems for connecting pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment. These Flanges are specifically designed to work with the corresponding variations of stainless steel—304, 304L, and 304H.

  1. Stainless Steel 304 Flanges:

    • Composition: Grade 304 is an austenitic stainless steel alloy containing 18% chromium, 8% nickel, and a small amount of carbon (around 0.08%).
    • Flange Properties: Flanges made from 304 stainless steel offer excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and high-temperature strength. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, including those in chemical processing, food processing, and general industrial use.
  2. Stainless Steel 304L Flanges:

    • Composition: Grade 304L is a low-carbon variant of 304, containing a maximum of 0.03% carbon.
    • Flange Properties: 304L flanges retain the corrosion resistance and formability of 304 but with improved weldability due to the lower carbon content. These flanges are commonly used in applications where welding is a critical aspect.
  3. Stainless Steel 304H Flanges:

    • Composition: Grade 304H is a high-carbon version of 304, with a carbon content ranging from 0.04% to 0.10%.
    • Flange Properties: 304H flanges are designed for high-temperature applications. The higher carbon content helps maintain strength and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. These flanges are suitable for use in industries where high-temperature conditions are prevalent.

The choice between 304, 304L, and 304H flanges depends on the specific requirements of the application. If enhanced weldability is a priority, 304L is preferred. If high-temperature resistance is critical, 304H is specifically designed for such conditions. Standard 304 is a versatile option suitable for a wide range of applications. Always consider factors like temperature, pressure, and the corrosive environment when selecting the appropriate stainless steel grade for flanges.

Excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, and good formability.

Improved weldability due to lower carbon content, suitable for welding applications.

Yes, all three grades (304, 304L, 304H) are weldable, but 304L is preferred for improved weldability.

Flanges are available in various sizes and pressure classes, conforming to industry standards (ANSI, ASME, DIN).
