JIS G3461 STB340 boiler and heat exchanger tubes are a type of carbon steel tube specified by the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) G3461. These tubes are used in boilers, heat exchangers, and similar equipment for high-temperature service.

JIS G3461 is the grade designation for this type of carbon steel tube. It has a minimum tensile strength of 340 MPa and a minimum yield strength of 175 MPa.

JIS G3461 STB340 boiler and heat exchanger tubes have excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength. They are also easy to fabricate and can be welded by various methods.

These tubes are typically produced in seamless form and are available in various sizes and thicknesses. They are widely used in industrial applications such as power generation, petrochemical, and refineries.

JIS G3461 STB340 boiler and heat exchanger tubes are a type of carbon steel tube specifically designed for high-temperature and high-pressure applications.

Japanese Industrial Standards for steel

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.

• G – Ferrous Materials and Metallurgy
• H – Nonferrous Materials and Metallurgy

MTC IN EN 10204.3

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.

What is JIS?

JIS Number and Corrensponding Foreign Standards

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.
