These carbon steel pipes are designed to withstand high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
These carbon steel pipes are designed to withstand high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, making them suitable for use in applications such as steam boilers, pipelines, and high-pressure equipment. The pipes are manufactured through a seamless process or a welded process, depending on the requirements of the application.
The mechanical properties of JIS G3455 carbon steel pipes vary depending on the grade. For example, STS 370 has a minimum tensile strength of 370 MPa and a minimum yield strength of 215 MPa, while STS 510 has a minimum tensile strength of 510 MPa and a minimum yield strength of 335 MPa.
This Standard specifies the carbon steel pipes (hereafter referred to as “pipes”) used for high pressure service at temperatures 350°C or lower. This Standard is generally applicable to pipes of outside diameters 10.5mm (nominal diameter 6A or 1/8B) to 660.4 mm (nominal diameter 650A or 26B).
In addition to the items specified in this text, the purchaser can previously designate special quality requirements upon agreement with the manufacturer, which are shown in Annex JA.
NOTE: The International Standard corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows:
ISO 9329-2: 1997 Seamless steel tubes for pressure purposes-Technical delivery conditions-Part 2: Unalloyed and alloyed steels with specified elevated temperature properties (MOD)
The symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standard and JIS are IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEe Guide 21-1.
JIS G3455 is a Japanese Industrial Standard that specifies carbon steel pipes for high pressure service at an approximate maximum temperature of 350°C. The standard covers pipes with an outer diameter ranging from 15 to 600 mm, and wall thicknesses from 1 to 50 mm. The JIS G3455 specification includes four different grades of carbon steel pipes: STS 370, STS 410, STS 480, and STS 510.

Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) developed by the organization apply to a wide variety of industrial services and technologies such as automobiles, metallurgy, ships and medical equipment
The method for making cold-drawn seamless pipes involves taking a round “billet” or bar of steel and boring it in the center, turning it, cutting it, heating it to make it more pliable, then “drawing” it (extruding or pulling it) to make it a longer and thinner tube.
Japanese Industrial Standards specifies the standards used for industrial activities in Japan. The standardization process is coordinated by Japanese Industrial Standards Committee and published through Japanese Standards Association.
The Industrial Standardization Law was revised in 2004 and the JIS mark product certification system was changed. Standards are named like “JIS X 0208:1997″, where X denotes area division, followed by four digits (or five digits for some of the standards corresponding ISO standards) and the revision release year.
EN 10204:2004 is for metallic products-and this norm tell us things about Types of inspection documents. There are no material standards.
Mostly material is defined with its chemical composition and mechanical properties in a public standars like ISO, EN, JIS, ASTM etc.

In the Meiji era, private enterprises were responsible for making standards. However, the Japanese government did have standards and specification documents for procurement purposes for certain articles, such as munitions. These were summarized to form an official standard old JES in 1921. During World War II, simplified standards were established to increase matériel output. The Industrial Standardization Law was enacted in 1949, which forms the legal foundations for the present Japanese Industrial Standards.

Alloy steel pipes are widely used in high-temperature, high-pressure and corrosive service environments where conventional carbon steel pipes cannot provide sufficient mechanical strength or long-term reliability.
Manufactured from premium alloy steels containing chromium, molybdenum, nickel and other alloying elements, these pipes provide excellent resistance to heat, pressure, oxidation and corrosion, making them ideal for demanding industrial processes.
Alloy steel pipes offer superior performance under severe operating conditions. Their enhanced mechanical properties provide excellent resistance to elevated temperatures, internal pressure, corrosion and long-term creep deformation.
Alloy steel pipes are selected for critical applications where operating temperatures, pressures or corrosive media exceed the capabilities of carbon steel.
| Service Condition | Typical Application |
|---|---|
| High Temperature | Boilers, superheaters, steam headers |
| Low Temperature | Cryogenic processing systems |
| High Pressure | Power generation and process piping |
| Corrosive Media | Chemical and petrochemical plants |
| Long-Term Creep Service | Thermal power stations |
