Stainless Steel 304H Pipe Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in India — Nishra Overseas
Nishra Overseas is a leading Stainless Steel 304H Pipe manufacturer in India, and a dependable 304H Pipe supplier and exporter in India, serving the petroleum, power generation, boiler, and process industries across domestic and international markets. Whether you are sourcing Stainless Steel 304H Pipe in India for a single project or building a long-term supply arrangement, our stock depth and manufacturing capability are built to support both.
304H is a carbon-enriched variant of the standard 304 austenitic stainless steel family, built around a chromium-nickel-carbon composition. Stainless Steel 304H pipe carries a minimum yield strength of 205 MPa and a minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa, with the ability to elongate up to 40% before failure — properties that make it well suited to demanding fabrication work. Because of its elevated carbon content, 304H retains useful mechanical strength in service temperatures ranging from roughly 500°C to 800°C, well beyond what standard 304 can reliably handle.
Beyond its high-temperature performance, 304H offers strong resistance to corrosion, dependable weldability, and consistent mechanical behavior across a wide range of operating conditions. These qualities make it a preferred material for petroleum refineries, boiler piping, cooling systems, and power generation equipment. As a trusted Stainless Steel 304H Pipe manufacturer, supplier, and exporter in India, Nishra Overseas' goal is straightforward: deliver certified, high-quality 304H pipe and tube at fair, competitive pricing, backed by dependable stock availability.
