The GB/T 12770 304Ti Stainless Steel Pipe is a high-performance pipe made from 304Ti stainless steel, which is a titanium-stabilized version of 304 stainless steel. This material is designed according to the GB/T 12770 standard and provides superior resistance to corrosion and excellent mechanical properties. The addition of titanium (Ti) to 304 stainless steel improves its resistance to intergranular corrosion, making it especially suitable for high-temperature applications and environments with frequent exposure to corrosive substances.

The 304Ti stainless steel pipe is used extensively in industries that require superior strength, durability, and resistance to oxidation and corrosion, particularly in high-temperature environments such as chemical processing, heat exchangers, and power plants.

Unique Features of GB/T 12770 304Ti Stainless Steel Pipe

• Titanium Stabilization: The addition of titanium (Ti) to the alloy significantly enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion, particularly in applications involving welding or exposure to high temperatures.
• Improved High-Temperature Resistance: 304Ti stainless steel maintains its strength and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for use in heat exchangers, boilers, and furnace equipment.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Like 304 stainless steel, 304Ti exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion in a wide variety of environments, including acids, salts, and alkalis. However, the titanium content makes it even more resistant to corrosion in high-temperature conditions.
• Good Weldability: 304Ti stainless steel offers excellent weldability and can be easily welded without compromising its corrosion resistance, thanks to the titanium content that stabilizes the material.
• Versatility: Suitable for applications requiring both high strength and corrosion resistance, 304Ti stainless steel pipes are often used in industries like petrochemical, power generation, and heat exchangers.
