ASTM A358 EFW 904L Pipes

ASTM A358 EFW 904L Pipes are high-alloy austenitic stainless steel pipes manufactured using the Electric Fusion Welding (EFW) process. Grade 904L is designed for superior resistance to strong acids, chlorides, and aggressive chemical environments.

With high nickel and molybdenum content along with added copper, 904L offers exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. These pipes are widely used in chemical processing, marine, and offshore industries.
