After cold forming (work hardening) and after welding (risk of inter-granular corrosion in the weld joint) in Stainless Steel 304H Butt Weld Fittings, an annealing treatment for a couple of minutes followed by air cooling restores the microstructure (re-crystallization and dissolution of carbides) and eliminates internal stresses. Heavy section welding in Stainless Steel 304H Elbow is required and post-weld heat treatment is not possible. SS 304H Teemay be required for full corrosion resistance when thicker sections are welded. As the most widely and versatile used among all alloys, the mechanical attributes and chemical composition of Stainless Steel 304H Reducer offer the finest all-around show at comparatively lower cost. SS 304H Cross has higher strength at elevated temperatures. Assessment of these parameters in Stainless Steel 304H Bend and accurate prediction of the probability of SCC occurring in service is therefore difficult. Our Stainless Steel 304H Stub End cannot be hardened by thermal treatment.
