321 Stainless Steel Hexagonal Pipe – Technical Overview
1. Introduction
321 stainless steel hexagonal pipe is a hollow hexagonal bar made from titanium-stabilized austenitic stainless steel (321). The addition of titanium (Ti) enhances its resistance to intergranular corrosion, particularly in high-temperature environments (up to 900°C). It is widely used in aerospace, chemical processing, heat exchangers, and exhaust systems due to its excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance.
2. Specifications
3. Standards Compliance
-
International Standards:
-
ASTM A312/A269 (Seamless & Welded Pipes)
-
ASTM A554 (Welded Mechanical Tubing)
-
EN 10296-2 (European Standard)
-
Chinese Standards:
4. Chemical Composition (%)
| Element | C≤ | Si≤ | Mn≤ | P≤ | S≤ | Cr | Ni | Ti | Fe |
| 321 | 0.08 | 0.75 | 2.00 | 0.045 | 0.03 | 17.0-19.0 | 9.0-12.0 | ≥5×C% | Balance |
Key Feature: Titanium (Ti) ≥ 5×C% prevents chromium carbide precipitation, improving high-temperature performance.
5. Mechanical Properties
| Property | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Yield Strength (MPa) | Elongation (%) | Hardness (HB) |
| 321 | ≥520 | ≥205 | ≥40 | ≤187 |
Note: Retains strength at elevated temperatures (up to 900°C).
6. Manufacturing Process
-
Material Preparation: 321 stainless steel billets (with Ti stabilization).
-
Forming:
-
Heat Treatment: Solution annealing (920–1150°C) followed by rapid cooling to dissolve carbides.
-
Surface Treatment: Pickling, passivation, or polishing for corrosion resistance.
7. Key Features
✅ High-Temperature Resistance: Stable up to 900°C (avoids sensitization).
✅ Intergranular Corrosion Resistance: Titanium prevents chromium depletion.
✅ Oxidation Resistance: Forms a protective Cr₂O₃ layer in oxidizing atmospheres.
✅ Good Weldability: Suitable for welded structures.
8. Packaging
-
Standard: Plastic end caps, bundled with steel straps, waterproof wrapping.
-
Special: Wooden crates for heavy-duty protection.
9. Applications
-
Aerospace: Jet engine components, exhaust systems.
-
Chemical Industry: High-temperature pipelines, reactors.
-
Heat Exchangers: Boilers, condensers.
-
Automotive: Exhaust manifolds, catalytic converters.
-
Architecture: Decorative structures requiring heat resistance.
Summary
321 stainless steel hexagonal pipe is ideal for high-temperature and corrosive environments, offering superior thermal stability and mechanical strength. Its titanium stabilization ensures long-term performance in critical applications.
