Unlike 304L, Type 304H has a higher carbon content making the steel
more suitable for use in applications where elevated temperatures
are present. It is an austenitic chromium-nickel steel alloy and
the greater carbon content delivers an increased tensile and yield
strength.
The material is recommended for use in ASME pressure vessels in
working service above 525 0C due to the grade's heat resistant
properties.
304H Alloy is commonly found in the oil refining, gas and chemical
industry and is used in industrial boilers, pressure vessels, heat
exchangers, Pipelines and condensers. The material is also used
throughout the power generation industry. Stainless Steel DIN

304H Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes Background
Grade 304 is the standard "18/8" stainless; it is the most
versatile and most widely used stainless steel, available in a
wider range of products, forms and finishes than any other. It has
excellent forming and welding characteristics. The balanced
austenitic structure of Grade 304 enables it to be severely deep
drawn without intermediate annealing, which has made this grade
dominant in the manufacture of drawn stainless parts such as sinks,
hollow-ware and saucepans. For these applications it is common to
use special "304DDQ" (Deep Drawing Quality) variants. Grade 304 is
readily brake or roll formed into a variety of components for
applications in the industrial, architectural, and transportation
fields. Grade 304 also has outstanding welding characteristics.
Post-weld annealing is not required when welding thin sections.
Grade 304L, the low carbon version of 304, does not require
post-weld annealing and so is extensively used in heavy gauge
components (over about 6mm). Grade 304H with its higher carbon
content finds application at elevated temperatures. The austenitic
structure also gives these grades excellent toughness, even down to
cryogenic temperatures.
Typical compositional ranges for grade 304 stainless steels are
given in table 1.

304H Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes corrosion Resistance
Excellent in a wide range of atmospheric environments and many
corrosive media. Subject to pitting and crevice corrosion in warm
chloride environments, and to stress corrosion cracking above about
600C. Considered resistant to potable water with up to about
200mg/L chlorides at ambient temperatures, reducing to about
150mg/L at 600C.
304H Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes Heat Resistance
Good oxidation resistance in intermittent service to 8700C and in
continuous service to 9250C. Continuous use of 304 in the 425-8600C
range is not recommended if subsequent aqueous corrosion resistance
is important. Grade 304L is more resistant to carbide precipitation
and can be heated into the above temperature range.
Grade 304H has higher strength at elevated temperatures so is often
used for structural and pressure-containing applications at
temperatures above about 5000C and up to about 8000C. 304H will
become sensitized in the temperature range of 425-8600C; this is
not a problem for high temperature applications, but will result in
reduced aqueous corrosion resistance.
304H Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes Heat Treatment
Solution Treatment (Annealing) - Heat to 1010-11200C and cool
rapidly. These grades cannot be hardened by thermal treatment.
304H Stainless Steel Pipe and Tube Packing 304H Stainless Steel
