ASTM A213 TP321 seamless cold-drawn heat exchanger tube is a high-performance, precision-engineered tubular product designed for high-temperature and corrosive environments. It is most commonly used in heat exchangers, superheaters, and boilers.
GNEE supplies ASTM A213 TP321 seamless tubes made from stainless steel billets that are cold-drawn and cold-rolled, then heat-treated at specific temperatures. The finished seamless tubes are primarily used in boiler, heat exchanger, and superheater systems.
We produce ASTM A213 TP321 seamless stainless steel tubes with surface treatments including annealing and pickling. We offer a wide range of sizes with tight and precise dimensional tolerances. Unless an average wall thickness is required, the wall thickness tolerance is the plus of the minimum thickness.

ASTM A213 TP321 Stainless Steel Seamless Exchanger Tube

What is the difference between ASTM A213 TP321 stainless steel tube and 304?
ASTM A213 TP321 is a stabilized austenitic stainless steel tube suitable for high-temperature applications, including heat exchangers, boilers, and superheaters. Its titanium content prevents chromium carbide precipitation, providing excellent corrosion resistance in the 800-1500°F (427-816°C) range while offering improved stress crack resistance and ductility compared to 304 grade.

Application of ASTM A213 TP321 Seamless Cold Drawn Exchanger Tube

1. Power industry: Superheater and reheater tubes of power plant boilers (capable of coping with steam temperatures exceeding 600℃);
2. Petrochemical and chemical industries: Cracking furnace tubes and heat exchanger tubes (used to handle high-temperature corrosive process fluids);
3. Heat exchange equipment field: Various high-temperature heat exchangers and condensers (especially suitable for working conditions with the risk of intergranular corrosion);
4. Others: Key components of high-temperature pressure-bearing equipment (such as high-temperature pressure vessels, etc.).
