What is A358 317L?

Large-OD fusion-welded 317L pipe. Chemistry: higher Mo austenitic (~3–4% Mo), low carbon.

Typical applications

  • Aggressive chemical process piping
  • Pulp & paper and chloride-rich media
  • Upgrade path when 316L pitting is marginal

Selection guidance

Choose 317L when PREN of 316L is insufficient but duplex/super austenitic is not yet justified. Always state A358 class with OD × wall.

Standard Specification for Electric-Fusion-Welded Austenitic Chromium-Nickel Stainless Steel Pipe for High-Temperature Service and General Applications

ASTM A358 Stainless Steel EFW Pipes specification covers electric-fusion-welded austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel pipe suitable for corrosive or high-temperature service, or both, or for general Applications.
The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) has been substituted in this standard for such traditional terms as “nominal diameter,” “size,” and “nominal size.”
This specification covers the grades of alloy and stainless steel listed in Table 1. The selection of the proper grade and requirements for heat treatment shall be at the discretion of the purchaser, dependent on the service conditions to be encountered.

Five classes of pipe are covered as follows:

ASTM A358 Class 1 - Pipe shall be double welded by processes employing filler metal in all passes and shall be completely radiographed.

ASTM A358 Class 2 - Pipe shall be double welded by processes employing filler metal in all passes. No radiography is required.

ASTM A358 Class 3 - Pipe shall be single welded by processes employing filler metal in all passes and shall be completely radiographed.

ASTM A358 Class 4 - Same as Class 3 except that the weld pass exposed to the inside pipe surface may be made without the addition of filler metal (see 6.2.2.1 and 6.2.2.2).

ASTM A358 Class 5 - Pipe shall be double welded by processes employing filler metal in all passes and shall be spot radiographed.

Supplementary requirements covering provisions ranging from additional testing to formalized procedures for manufacturing practice are provided. Supplementary Requirements S1 through S6 are included as options to be specified when desired.

The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M” designation of this specification is specified in the order.

317L stainless steel (uns nos31703)

317L is a molybdenum bearing, low carbon content "L" grade austenitic stainless steel that provides improved corrosion resistance over 304L and 316L stainless steels. The low carbon provides resistance to sensitization during welding and other thermal processes.

317L is non-magnetic in the annealed condition but may become slightly magnetic as a result of welding.

Corrosion Resistance

317L has excellent corrosion resistance in a wide range of chemicals, especially in acidic chloride environments such as those encountered in pulp and paper mills. Increased levels of chromium, nickel and molybdenum compared to 316L stainless steel improve resistance to chloride pitting and general corrosion. Resistance increases with molybdenum alloy content. 317L is resistant to sulfuric acid concentrations up to 5 percent at temperatures as high as 120°F (49°C). At temperatures under 100°F (38°C) this alloy has excellent resistance to solutions of higher concentration. However, service tests are recommended to account for the effects of specific operating conditions that may affect corrosion behavior. In processes where condensation of sulfur-bearing gases occurs, 317L is much more resistant to attack at the point of condensation than conventional alloy 316. The acid concentration has a marked influence on the rate of attack in such environments and should be carefully determined by service tests.

Frequently asked questions — ASTM A358 Grade 317L EFW

What is A358 Grade 317L?

Electric-fusion-welded 317L stainless pipe (UNS S31703) to ASTM A358 / ASME SA358 with a specified class.

Why EFW instead of seamless?

Large OD / wall combinations are often more practical as EFW from plate when the PO allows A358.

Class selection?

Classes define radiography and heat treatment — quote the class on every enquiry.
