Stainless Steel for ASME BPVC VIII

Hello All,

I am working on a design using Stainless Steel tube and I need to fix the diameters for a production intent design. Ideally using a standard size and avoiding any turning of the OD or ID. The product needs to go through ASME certification BPVC VIII, so I need to know the ASME certification and be tracible. I need the mechanical properties to be be okay up to at least 450°C and be able to get tube or pipe with ASME certification in the UK easily. I need 20m of the stuff in the next month or so, but not urgently. In production it could be 100s of meters.

Can anyone make any material suggestions or a good supplier to talk to?
Thanks

There are plenty of good SS stockists in the UK.
If you need Code material, then order to SA-249.
Look around online and see what sizes people stock.
You need to pick an alloy and then OD.
