UNS N08904/EN 1.4539/ASTM A269 TP904L Seamless Coiled Tubing
Shanghai Toko Tech Co., Ltd. is a professional manufacturer and supplier of high-performance special alloy pipes and components. Its 904L (UNS N08904) seamless coiled tubing represents a premium-grade austenitic stainless steel specifically formulated with high molybdenum and copper content to deliver exceptional corrosion resistance in severe environments, particularly against sulfuric acid and chlorides.
Key Features & Advantages:
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: The high alloy content (Molybdenum ~4.5%, Copper ~1.5%, and high Chromium and Nickel) provides superior resistance to a wide range of corrosive media, especially sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and chloride-containing solutions. It offers much better performance than standard 316/316L or 317L grades.
Excellent Resistance to Pitting & Crevice Corrosion: The high Molybdenum and Chromium content results in a very high Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN >36), making it highly resistant to localized attack in aggressive environments.
Good Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) Resistance: Its high Nickel content provides excellent resistance to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking.
Seamless & Continuous Length: The seamless structure ensures the highest integrity and reliability for critical applications. The long coiled length eliminates weld joints, reducing potential leak points and simplifying installation in complex systems.
High-Quality Surface Finish: Produced through advanced cold drawing and bright annealing processes, resulting in a smooth, clean surface that minimizes the risk of contamination and fouling.
Typical Specifications (Customizable):
Material Grade: UNS N08904 / EN 1.4539 / ASTM A269 TP904L (Also complies with ASTM B673 for UNS N08904)
Outer Diameter (O.D.): φ3 mm ~ φ22 mm (Common range for coils)
Wall Thickness (W.T.): 0.5 mm ~ 2.0 mm (Varies with O.D.)
Coil Length: Several hundred meters per continuous coil (exact length depends on O.D. and W.T.)
Standard: ASTM A269, ASTM B673, etc.
