The addition of columbium (niobium) in SS 347 improves its resistance to intergranular corrosion, particularly after welding. It stabilizes the steel's microstructure, preventing carbide precipitation at grain boundaries, and enhances overall corrosion resistance in aggressive, high-temperature environments.
SS 347 hollow bars are commonly used in the chemical processing, aerospace, power generation, and petrochemical industries. Typical applications include heat exchangers, reactor vessels, piping systems, and furnace components, where resistance to high temperatures and corrosion is essential.
Stainless Steel 347 Hollow Bar is commonly utilized in applications that demand high-temperature strength and corrosion resistance. It’s especially well-suited for settings that experience repeated heating and cooling cycles. Industries that frequently use this material include aerospace, chemical processing, food processing, petroleum refining, and power generation. It’s often found in components like heat exchangers, pressure vessels, boiler tubes, exhaust manifolds, and furnace parts. The hollow design of the bar allows for a lighter weight without sacrificing strength, making it perfect for structural and mechanical applications where efficiency and reliability are essential. Its durability ensures a long service life, making it a smart choice for various demanding applications.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
