Product Description
Alloy Steel AMS 6304 (17-22A) UNS K14675 is a structural low alloy steel that demonstrates exceptionally high strength, high-temperature strength, and excellent heat resistance. Because of these traits, AMS 6404 (17-22A) is generally used for manufacturing aviation parts, mechanical parts for engines, industrial furnaces, turbine rotors, petrochemical engineering operations, steam turbines, shafts, studs, fasteners, missile components, and many other similar applications.High-Precision Seamless ConstructionAlloy 6304 pipes are manufactured using the cold drawn method, which ensures a seamless finish, uniform thickness, and enhanced strength. This construction technique also improves dimensional accuracy, making these pipes suitable for applications where tight tolerances are critical. The seamless design reduces the risk of leaks, providing additional safety in pressure systems.
Superior Surface Finish and Corrosion ResistanceThe pipes have a smooth, polished surface that not only improves their appearance but also enhances resistance to corrosion. This makes Alloy 6304 pipes a preferred choice for industries exposed to harsh chemicals, moisture, or marine environments. Their polished finish facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance as well.
