347 Stainless Steel Tube

Stellanox Steel offers top-quality 347 Stainless Steel Tubes, designed to perform under high-temperature and corrosive environments where standard austenitic grades like 304 and 316 fall short. Stabilized with niobium (columbium), 347 stainless steel tubes are ideal for use in heat exchangers, chemical processing, high-pressure steam lines, and aerospace components where resistance to intergranular corrosion and creep is essential.

Engineered for demanding industries, these tubes ensure long-term reliability in extreme heat and cyclic thermal conditions.

What is 347 Stainless Steel Tube?

347 Stainless Steel Tubes are austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel products alloyed with niobium (Nb) to stabilize against chromium carbide precipitation. This stabilization enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion caused by welding or high-temperature service.

With excellent mechanical strength, oxidation resistance, and creep resistance, 347 tubes are widely used in aircraft engine components, thermal oxidizers, and refinery heaters operating at elevated temperatures.
