SS 202 Pipes & Tubes – Ideal for Light Structural & Decorative Uses

As a premier SS 202 Pipes & Tubes Stockist in India, we supply standard Grade 202 piping formulated by replacing nickel with manganese and nitrogen. This creates an austenitic alloy featuring superior yield strength (275 MPa min) and workability. It serves as an ideal, cost-effective substitute for Grade 304 in architectural balustrades, frameworks, and general equipment.

SS 202LN Pipes & Tubes – The High-Strength Nitrogen Grade

For fabrications requiring enhanced yield limits, low-temperature toughness, or heavy cold bending, specialized nitrogen-added variants (like 202LN / UNS S20253) offer increased mechanical capacity. Alloying with nitrogen boosts tensile performance up to 515 MPa min while retaining 40% elongation, preventing seam cracking during severe forming.

Frequently Asked Questions

SS 202 is an austenitic chromium-nickel-manganese stainless steel grade. Manganese and nitrogen are used to replace nickel, making it an economical, high-strength alternative to 300-series steels for structural and decorative applications.

No, "202L" is not an official ASTM/AISI standard specification. Standard 202 contains up to 0.15% carbon. However, custom mill runs or related grades like 201L / 202LN offer lower carbon chemistry for enhanced weldability and reduced carbide precipitation.

SS 202 pipes are primarily used in decorative building architecture, handrails, bus body frameworks, and commercial equipment. They serve as an economical, high-strength alternative to 304 stainless steel in dry, low-corrosion environments.

Yes, SS 202 offers excellent mechanical tensile strength and toughness due to its nitrogen and manganese content. While less corrosion-resistant than 304, it provides high durability and structural value for indoor and decorative applications.

ASTM A312: Standard specification covering high-temperature and general corrosive service seamless and welded structural pipes.

ASTM A213: Standard specification for seamless boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes.

ASTM A269: Standard specification for general service seamless and welded nominal tubing where smooth surface finish and dimensional precision are required.
