ASTM A358 CL1 TP304 TP304H TP316L TP317L TP347 Stainless Steel Welded Pipe.Video

ASTM A358 is a standard specification covering austenitic electric fusion welded stainless steel grades. ASTM A358 pipes are designed with excellent chromium and nickel composition. ASTM A358 EFW pipes are divided into five categories: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5.

 

ASTM A358 Stainless Steel EFW Pipe Classification

Class

Welding Process

Inspection Requirements

Class 1

Double-sided welding with full penetration

100% radiographic testing (RT) + mechanical property testing

Class 2

Double-sided welding without full penetration

Visual inspection + hydrostatic testing

Class 3

Single-sided welding with full penetration

100% radiographic testing (RT)

Class 4

Single-sided welding (no internal filler metal)

RT testing + weld integrity verification

Class 5

Double-sided welding with partial penetration

20% sampling RT testing + ultrasonic testing (UT)

Note:

Material selection: 316L for high chloride ion environment, 321H for high temperature creep resistance, and 904L for strong corrosion.

Class matching: Class 1 must be selected for high-risk scenarios (such as ASME BPVC pressure vessels), and Class 2 for general use.
