EN 10217-7:2021 — Welded Stainless Steel Tubes for Pressure Purposes

Procurement reference for welded circular stainless steel tubes intended for pressure and corrosion-resisting service.

This MNK-G.S.A page is an original procurement summary. It does not reproduce or replace the protected EN publication.

Scope in Procurement

  • EN 10217-7:2021 specifies technical delivery conditions, in two test categories, for welded circular tubes made from austenitic and austenitic-ferritic stainless steels.
  • The scope addresses pressure and corrosion-resisting service at room, low or elevated temperatures. It does not by itself demonstrate that a material is suitable for a particular pressure-equipment design.
  • Manufacturing route, weld condition, dimensions, grade, testing and project code must be stated together and verified against the current authorised standard.

Where This Standard Fits

Procurement scope summary

Scope sources: BS EN 10217-7:2021; DIN EN 10217-7:2021-06.

Other tube manufacturing route: EN 10216-5:2021. Inspection documents: EN 10204:2004.

Ordering Controls

  • Exact EN steel name, material number and edition
  • Welding route, weld condition and delivery condition
  • Outside diameter, wall thickness, length and tolerances
  • Pressure design code, design temperature and corrosion environment
  • Test category, NDT, leak testing and supplementary requirements
  • EN 10204 document, traceability, ends, cleanliness, quantity and destination

Edition control: the purchase order, approved material specification and current authorised standard govern the supply. The designation alone does not prove grade, form, design-code or project compliance.

Official Publication and Access Policy

Checked on 10 October 2026: the BSI record for BS EN 10217-7:2021 lists the edition as current and under review. This does not mean it has been withdrawn. Use the authorised publication for technical requirements, tolerances and acceptance criteria; recheck its status before ordering. MNK-G.S.A does not reproduce the protected standard.

Technical sources and revision

Source review:

Public catalogues were checked for edition, scope and status. This is not a review of the licensed full standard or approval of a pressure-equipment design.

BSI: current, under review. DIN Media: current. Recheck the applicable edition before ordering.
