Welding and Heat Treatment for A358 GR 321 Pipes

A358 GR 321 Stainless Steel Pipes are specifically designed for superior weldability. Titanium stabilization minimizes the risk of carbide precipitation, enhancing the weld’s resistance to intergranular corrosion. These pipes are annealed at 1010-1120°C to restore ductility and achieve optimal performance. For high-pressure applications, Post-Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) is recommended to enhance structural integrity and mechanical strength.

Differences Between A358 GR 321 and GR 304 Pipes

Feature GR 321 GR 304
Stabilizing Element Titanium None
Corrosion Resistance Higher for Welded Joints Moderate
Applications High-Temperature Use General Industrial Use
