ASTM A403 WP304 Fittings

What does WP mean on ASTM A403 WP304 fittings?

In ASTM A403, WP stands for “wrought pipe,” which indicates that the fittings are made from wrought austenitic stainless steel material. The “WP” is followed by a numerical designation that indicates the grade of ss used to manufacture the fitting like the ASTM A403 WP304 fittings means the fitting is made from 304 grade ss.

Ramesh Steel Corporation manufactures wrought austenitic ASME SA403 WP304 Welded Fittings for pressure piping applications.

What is the difference between a SCH 40 and SCH 80 price in ASME SA403 WP304 fittings?

The difference between the price of ASTM A403 WP304 Pipe fittings with SCH 40 and SCH 80 thicknesses can vary based on several factors like the cost of raw materials, manufacturing process and market demand.

SCH 80 fitting are thicker and heavier than SCH 40 fitting, which can make them more expensive to manufacture. Also, SCH 80 ASTM A403 WP304 buttweld pipe fittings may require more material and longer manufacturing times, which can contribute to their higher cost. The SCH 80 ones can also withstand higher pressures and temperatures.

Talking about the price difference between China and India, the Chinese fitting might be more affordable than the Indian ones. But it is important to consider the quality and other material specifications and not only the cost before buying ASTM A403 Grade WP304 weld fittings.

Can hydrostatic testing possible in ASTM A403 WP304 pipe fittings?

Yes, hydrostatic testing is possible and performed on AISI 304 pipe bend. The test involves filling the pipe or fitting with water and pressurizing it to a specified level for a given duration. The purpose is to detect any leaks or weaknesses in the fitting that could compromise its integrity or safety.
