ASTM A240 ASME SA240 904L duplex steel sheet plate

Alloy 904L(UNS N08904, 1.4539) is a high-alloy austenitic stainless steel with low carbon content, it offers excellent corrosion resistance in various environments such as seawater and acidic solutions. Its low carbon content helps to minimize the chances of sensitization during welding or high-temperature exposure. The outstanding properties make ASTM A240 904L plates a valuable material for producing tanks, pipes, heat exchangers, reactors, and marine structures.

Physical properties Of ASTM A240 UNS N08904 904L Plates/ Sheets

The A240 904L stainless steel plate finds its applications in various industries:

1. Chemical processing industry: The plate is used for production equipment such as reactors, tanks, heat exchangers, and piping systems. The high corrosion resistance of this plate makes it suitable for processing highly acidic solutions.

2. Oil and Gas industry: The plate is used in the production of offshore oil platforms, seawater desalination plants, and pipelines. The plate resists chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking, making it an ideal material for offshore applications.

3. Pharmaceutical industry: The plate is used for producing tanks and reactors for manufacturing pharmaceutical products. The low carbon content of the plate minimizes the chances of sensitization during welding or high-temperature exposure.

4. Marine industry: The plate is highly resistant to corrosion in seawater and other harsh marine environments. It is, therefore, used for producing propeller shafts, shipbuilding, and various marine structures.
