What is BS EN 10312 specifies?
BS EN 10312 specifies the technical delivery conditions for light-gauge, welded stainless steel tubes used for conveying aqueous liquids, particularly water for human consumption. Key aspects include covering sizes from 6 mm to 159 mm outer diameter, specifying grades like 1.4301 and 1.4404, requiring tests for intergranular corrosion and eddy current, and detailing external weld seam removal.
BS EN 10312 welded stainless steel pipes are used for conveying water and other aqueous liquids, primarily for water applications. EN 10312 is a European standard covering welded stainless steel pipes with tight tolerances, including Series 1 and Series 2. Welded pipes can be finished using welding, bright annealing, and polishing. We use automatic tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding for longitudinal welding. Depending on the welding conditions, solution annealing and internal and external polishing for sanitary applications are optional, often used for drinking water transport.
Advantages of EN 10312 Welded Stainless Steel Water Tube
Health: The smooth inner surface of the pipes resists scale and bacterial growth over long periods of use, eliminating water quality concerns. Stainless steel is a 100% renewable material and poses no environmental risk.
A variety of grades are available, including 304, 304L, and 316L, offering high strength to meet diverse operating conditions.
Durability and Cost-Efficiency: The thin, dense chromium-rich oxide film on the stainless steel surface provides excellent corrosion resistance in all fluids, including soft water. Corrosion test data shows that stainless steel pipes can last up to 100 years with virtually no maintenance required, eliminating the cost and hassle of pipe replacement and resulting in lower overall operating costs.
High-Temperature and Pressure-Resistant: Stainless steel pipes release no harmful substances, maintaining stable performance regardless of temperature. The high strength of stainless steel pipes significantly reduces the likelihood of leakage due to external forces, significantly reducing the leakage rate.
