TP 321/321H tubes are austenitic stainless steel tubes specified by ASTM A312, known for their high-temperature strength and resistance to scaling and embrittlement. They are stabilized with titanium, which prevents carbide precipitation, making them suitable for applications up to 900°C. The primary difference is carbon content: 321 has a maximum of 0.08%, while 321H has a higher carbon range of 0.04% to 0.10%. They are used in demanding applications like aerospace, chemical processing, and heat exchangers.


Characteristics of 321 stainless steel include:

  • Excellent resistance against both general and intergranular corrosion.
  • Excellent creep and stress rupture strength together with oxidation resistance up to 816°C.
  • Good toughness at low temperatures; minimum yield strength of 205 MPa; minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa; density of 8027 kg/m³.
  • Melting point between 1398-1446°C and hardness of 217 Brinell yields durability.
  • Formability: Elongation of 40%.

Stainless Steel 321H Seamless Pipes

Stainless Steel 321H pipe is a stabilized austenitic stainless steel designed for high-temperature use (427-816°C / 800-1500°F). It has higher carbon content. It resists carbide precipitation, remains non-magnetic in the annealed condition, and can be hardened by cold working.
