Stainless Steel 304L Seamless Pipe is an austenitic stainless steel pipe with low carbon content and corrosion resistance. It is designed for leak-free and long-lasting performance under high pressure and temperature.
The grade meet ASTM A312 TP304L standards, making it ideal for applications that require strength, hygiene, and weldability. As a low-carbon variant of SS 304, it is very resistant to intergranular corrosion after welding. This make it suitable for welded structures such as tanks, pipelines, and vessels.
These pipes have smooth interior finish and seamless body make them useful in food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine industries. The non-reactive surface ensure hygiene and sturdy construction provide steady flow performance.
Neeka Tubes is a trusted 304L stainless steel pipe manufacturer in India, providing precision-made seamless pipes to both domestic and international customers. As a leading SS 304L pipe supplier in India, we offer cut-to-size solutions, schedule-customized dimensions, and certified products that meet global standards.
ASTM A312 TP304L seamless pipe is a low-carbon stainless steel pipe engineered for strength, durability, and intergranular corrosion resistance. The ASTM A312 standard includes seamless stainless steel pipes used in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments. This make this grade a dependable choice for demanding industries. The 304L stainless steel pipe contains no more than 0.03% carbon, which prevents carbide build-up and allows welding without post-weld heat treatment. Because the pipe is seamless, it offers uniform strength across the entire body, ensuring safe use in pressure systems and precision fluid transport. The UNS S30403 designation provide material consistency and full traceability. This seamless stainless steel pipe is fully compatible with the ASTM A312 and ASME SA312 standard which makes it appropriate for regulated industrial applications around the world.
SS 304L seamless pipes have several advantages that make them an excellent choice in industry where hygiene and durability are crucial.
These SS 304L seamless pipe benefits ensure long-term reliability in critical projects.
Choosing between SS 304 seamless pipe, SS 304L seamless pipe, and SS 316 seamless pipe depends on weldability, corrosion resistance, and the type of environment.
SS 304 Seamless Pipe: SS 304 is the standard stainless steel pipe grade. It has a balance of strength and corrosion resistance which makes it reliable for everyday industrial use. It is suitable for general piping jobs where welding is not the main focus.
SS 304L Seamless Pipe: SS 304L has less carbon than 304, which prevents intergranular corrosion after welding. This makes it a better fit for welded pressure vessels, tanks, and piping systems where joints face stress over time.
SS 316 Seamless Pipe: SS 316 pipe contain molybdenum which gives it superior resistance to chlorides, acids, and harsh chemicals. It is used for marine settings, chemical plants, and high-temperature service where other grades may fail.
Key Differences
304L offers easier weldability than 304.
316 handles salt, acids, and chemicals better than both 304 and 304L.
316 outperforms in marine, chemical, and heat-exposed piping.
SS 304L seamless pipe performs well in both hot and corrosive conditions. ASTM A312 TP304L pipe temperature rating reaches about 870Β°C for continuous service and up to 925Β°C for short cycles. The low carbon design protect pipe against intergranular corrosion after welding with no extra heat treatment is needed. This stability makes it a reliable heat resistant stainless steel pipe for boilers, steam lines, and thermal systems.
The 304L stainless steel pipe heat resistance helps it hold strength without warping or heavy scale build-up at high temperatures. These pipes resist oxidizing gases and mild acids present in chemical or hygienic processes. While not the best choice for high-chloride contact, like marine splash zones where 316 grades work better, it performs strongly in indoor, steam, and lightly corrosive settings. Its smooth surface and stainless steel 304L corrosion resistance also make it a safe choice for sanitary pipe systems in food and pharma lines.

The 304L seamless pipe price per kg in India is based on size, schedule, surface finish, and mill origin. On average it ranges between βΉ280/kg to βΉ500/kg. Factors like wall thickness, annealed or pickled finish, and standards also affect cost. Price fluctuate with nickel rates, import duties, and stock levels. We provide a stainless steel 304L pipe price chart with detailed sizes and rates for clarity.
Every SS 304L seamless pipe go through testing before dispatch. Hydrostatic testing checks pressure strength to ensure leak-free performance. Non-destructive testing stainless steel pipe methods like ultrasonic or eddy current, spot hidden cracks or voids without harming the pipe. Positive Material Identification (PMI) confirms the right grade and chemical makeup. Mechanical tests such as tensile, hardness and flattening guarantee strength and durability in real service. Each order comes with EN 10204 3.1 MTC as proof of quality. For added assurance, ASTM A312 TP304L certification pipes can be verified by third-party inspection stainless pipe agencies like SGS, TUV, or BV. This process ensures quality and reliability.
SS 304L seamless pipes are made through a controlled hot-working process that ensure a weld-free body.
This SS 304L seamless pipe manufacturing process ensure pipes meet industry needs for hygiene and pressure service.
