Stainless Steel 304 Pipe covers a wide range of sizes according to the ASTM, ASME, and API standards. The range includes welded SS 304 pipes and electric fusion welded pipes. The nominal bore size of a Stainless Steel 304 Seamless Pipe ranges from ½ inches to 16 inches, its ERW pipes range from ½ inches to 24 inches, and its EFW pipes range from 6 to 100 inches. All pipe sizes range from 1/8 inch to 30 inches.

The pressure rating for 304 stainless steel pipe depends on the pipe size and schedule. Generally, the higher the wall thickness or schedule number, the higher the pressure rating. For example, a 1-inch Schedule 40 pipe has a pressure rating of 310 PSI, while a 1-inch Schedule 80 pipe has a pressure rating of 580 PSI.

The price of 304 stainless steel per square foot in Indian Rupees (INR) will depend on the current exchange rate. Generally, it is estimated that 304 stainless steel costs between ₹222 and ₹1,110 per square foot when converting from USD to INR. However, this price can fluctuate depending on the current exchange rate.

The price of a 304 stainless steel pipe will depend on the desired size, length, and grade of material. Generally speaking, prices for smaller-sized pipes can range from ₹1,163 to ₹3,855 per meter in India. Larger-sized pipes 4 inches or larger and usually priced between ₹4,000 and ₹7,000 per meter; this can vary depending on availability and grade.

Stainless steel 304 is a versatile material widely used in constructing pipes and pipe fittings. The following are some of the critical specifications for 304 stainless steel pipes:

• ASTM A312: Standard specification for seamless, welded, and heavily cold-worked austenitic stainless steel pipes.
• ASTM A358: Standard specification for electric-fusion-welded austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel pipe for high-temperature service.
• ASTM A376: Standard seamless austenitic steel pipe specification for high-temperature central station service.
• ASTM A778: Standard specification for welded, unannealed austenitic stainless steel tubular products.
• ASME SA312: Standard specification for seamless, welded, and heavily cold-worked austenitic stainless steel pipes.

The pressure rating of 304 Stainless Steel pipes is determined based on the material's yield strength, which ranges from 25 to 40 ksi (kilopounds per square inch). For example, a Type 304 stainless steel pipe with an outer diameter of 2 inches and a wall thickness of 0.25 inches has a pressure rating range of 20-30 KSI. For larger diameters and thicker walls, the pressure rating increases accordingly. The temperature can also affect the pressure rating of these pipes, as higher temperatures may lead to decreased strength.

304 stainless steel pipes are available in a wide range of sizes. The most commonly used sizes are:

• NPS (National Pipe Size): 1/8" to 12"
• DN (Diameter Nominal): 6 to 300

In terms of wall thickness, 304 stainless steel pipes are available in several schedules, including:

• Schedule 5: Wall thickness of 0.083 inches (2.11 mm) and above
• Schedule 10: Wall thickness of 0.109 inches (2.77 mm) and above
• Schedule 40: Wall thickness of 0.133 inches (3.38 mm) and above
• Schedule 80: Wall thickness of 0.179 inches (4.55 mm) and above
• Schedule 160: Wall thickness of 0.250 inches (6.35 mm) and above

These are standard sizes and thicknesses, but you can also find 304 stainless steel pipes in other custom sizes.

It's also worth noting that 304 stainless steel pipes can be produced in different shapes, such as round, square, and rectangular.
