What are ASTM A403 WP347 Stainless Steel Buttweld Fittings?

ASTM A403 WP347 Class 1 Fittings are wrought stainless steel buttweld fittings for pressure piping and high temperature use. The grade contains chromium, nickel and niobium that improve the creep resistance and oxidation resistance.

These fittings are extensively used in:

  • Petrochemical plants
  • Oil & gas processing units
  • Refineries
  • Fertilizer industries
  • Heat exchangers
  • Power plants
  • Offshore pipelines
  • Food processing systems

The addition of niobium helps stabilize the alloy against chromium carbide precipitation during welding operations, making it ideal for welded structures operating at high temperatures.
