Stainless Steel 348/348H Forged Fittings are produced from a stabilized austenitic stainless steel alloy with a composition of 17–20% chromium, 9–13% nickel, and columbium (niobium), 348H having more carbon content for improved high-temperature tensile strength. The fittings have superior resistance to intergranular corrosion, oxidation, and creep. Common mechanical properties are tensile strength of approximately 515 MPa, yield strength of 205 MPa, and satisfactory ductility with elongation up to 35%. The stability of the alloy under thermal stress and the capacity to retain mechanical integrity in severe conditions make it suitable for applications involving high performance.

At Chanchai Stainless, all stainless steel 348/348H forged fittings are rigorously tested to ensure they meet international quality standards. Each product is tested for durability, corrosion resistance and high temperature performance. Accredited by recognized authorities, we issue Material Testing Reports (MTRs) for our fittings, ensuring reliability and customer confidence with every purchase.
Corrosion-resistant and ideal for high-temperature applications, these fittings provide robust, leak-proof connections. Common sizes range from ½” to 4″ in diameter. Socket weld fittings are used in industries like chemical processing and petrochemicals for their strength and reliability.
Offering excellent corrosion resistance, these fittings are designed for high-stress and high-temperature applications. Available sizes typically range from ¼” to 2″ in diameter. They ensure secure and leak-free connections and are ideal for use in oil and gas industries.
Highly resistant to corrosion, this elbow facilitates changes in direction with a 45-degree bend. Standard sizes range from ½” to 4″ in diameter. It redirects its flow in pipelines, especially in chemical and petrochemical industries.
Featuring superior corrosion resistance, this tee allows for branching off a main line. Sizes generally range from ¼” to 2″ in diameter. They are commonly used in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, ensuring durability and reliability in critical applications.
Known for its corrosion resistance, this half coupling is used to join pipes or tubes of the same diameter. Typical sizes range from ¼” to 2″ in diameter. It is essential for creating extensions or connections in industrial piping systems.
Corrosion-resistant and durable, this cross-fitting allows four-way connections in piping systems. Available in sizes from ½” to 4″ in diameter. It’s used in complex pipeline networks to facilitate multiple branch connections, especially in chemical and petrochemical industries.
Forged Fittings of Stainless Steel 348/348H are extensively used in high-temperature and pressure systems where mechanical soundness and corrosion resistance are vital. They are best suited for application in heat exchangers, pressure vessels, boilers, superheaters, and chemical process equipment. Petrochemical, oil and gas, power generation, and aerospace industries rely on these fittings for essential piping connections under harsh operating conditions. Their weldable, intergranular corrosion resistance and superior thermal stability render them to be used in steam lines, reactor systems, and refineries so that they can provide long-term longevity and operate safely.
