Austenitic SS 904L Fittings and Flanges

Austenitic SS 904L Fittings and Flanges

SS 904L Fittings and SS 904L Flanges or UNS N08904 Flanges and Fittings is a superaustenitic stainless steel that is designed for moderate to high corrosion resistance in a wide range of process environments. The combination of high chromium and nickel content, coupled with additions of molybdenum and copper, assure good to excellent corrosion resistance

Grade 904L is less resistant to nitric acid than grades 304L and 310L, which are free of molybdenum. This steel grade needs to be solution treated following cold working, to achieve maximum stress corrosion cracking resistance under critical environments.

Specification of Flange 

 The specified ASTM Standard Specification for Wrought Austenitic Stainless Steel 904L Flanges is ASTM A182 with manufacturing standard such as ANSI/ASME B16.5, B16.48, BS4504, B 16.47 Series A & B, BS 10, EN-1092, DIN, etc.
