Common Stainless Steel Coil Grades
As a professional stainless steel plate / sheet supplier, Shripad Elite Steelworks offers a full range of common grades for global applications.
Typical Products
Seamless Stainless Steel Pipe
Seamless pipe is produced without welding, offering uniform structure and higher pressure resistance.
Key Characteristics
Manufacturing: hot rolled / cold drawn
Structure: no weld seam
Pressure rating: high
Standards: ASTM A312, A213, A106
Typical Sizes
OD: 6 mm – 630 mm
Wall thickness: SCH 5 – SCH XXS
Best For
High-pressure pipelines
Oil & gas systems
Chemical processing
Power generation
Why choose seamless?
When pressure, temperature, or safety margins are critical, seamless pipe minimizes risk.
Welded Stainless Steel Pipe
Welded pipe is formed from stainless steel strip or plate and welded longitudinally.
Key Characteristics
Manufacturing: ERW / TIG / laser welded
Cost: more economical than seamless
Availability: wide size range
Standards: ASTM A312, A554
Typical Sizes
OD: 10 mm – 3000 mm
Wall thickness: 0.8 – 20 mm
Best For
Low to medium pressure pipelines
Water supply systems
Architectural applications
Large-diameter piping
Why choose welded?
When cost efficiency and size flexibility matter more than extreme pressure.
Precision Stainless Steel Tube
Precision tubes are cold drawn or cold rolled with tight dimensional control.
Key Characteristics
Tolerance: tight OD & wall control
Surface: smooth, clean
Straightness: excellent
Standards: ASTM A269, EN 10216
Typical Sizes
OD: 3 mm – 114 mm
Wall thickness: 0.3 – 6 mm
Best For
Instrumentation
Hydraulic & pneumatic systems
Automotive components
Mechanical assemblies
Why precision tube?
Because dimensional accuracy directly affects performance and assembly efficiency.
Typical Applications
Stainless steel pipe and tube are used wherever reliability under flow, pressure, or structure matters:
Oil & Gas: pipelines, process lines
Chemical & Petrochemical: reactors, transfer systems
Energy & Power: boilers, heat exchangers
Food & Pharma: hygienic piping
Construction: handrails, frames, columns
Automotive: exhaust and fluid systems
Processing Options Available from Shripad Elite Steelworks
You can source pipe and tube as mill supply or processed to spec:
Fixed length cutting
End facing & beveling
Polishing (mechanical / electropolishing)
Pickling & passivation
NDT inspection (UT, Eddy current)
These services reduce installation time and on-site modification.
Key Buying Considerations
Before placing an order, confirm:
Pipe or tube standard (ASTM / EN / JIS / GB)
Seamless or welded
OD, wall thickness, length
Surface finish requirement
Application pressure & temperature
Inspection & certification (MTC, PMI, NDT)
Clear specifications upfront prevent delays and disputes.
Packaging & Export Standards
Proper export packaging ensures pipes arrive straight and clean:
Plastic caps on both ends
Bundled with steel straps
Waterproof wrapping
Wooden crates (ISPM-15) when required
As an experienced exporter, Shripad Elite Steelworks prepares stainless steel pipes and tubes for long-distance ocean transport.
