Stainless Steel Pipes 304 1/2in Sch40, ASTM A312, Corr-Resistant,
Plumbing & Food Processing
Stainless Steel Pipes 304 (1/2" Sch40) are precision-engineered for demanding applications in plumbing
systems, food processing, and chemical industries. Manufactured
under ASTM A312, these pipes combine superior corrosion resistance, hygienic
properties, and structural durability. The 304 grade, with its
balanced chromium (18–20%) and nickel (8–10.5%) content, resists
oxidation, chloride stress cracking, and organic acids, making it
ideal for transporting water, steam, and food-grade fluids. The
1/2" Sch40 dimension ensures optimal pressure handling (up to 483
psi at 100°C), while the smooth internal surface minimizes
contamination risks in sanitary environments.
