(1 2 stainless steel tubing)
Modern industrial applications demand tubing systems that withstand pressures up to 8,500 PSI while maintaining corrosion resistance. 1 2 stainless steel tubing
demonstrates 23% higher stress rupture strength than standard 304 alloys at 600°C, with surface hardness reaching 217 HBW. Our third-party testing reveals:
| Property | 321 SS | 316L SS | Carbon Steel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Corrosion Rate (mpy) | 0.12 | 0.08 | 12.7 |
| Thermal Expansion (10⁻⁶/°C) | 17.3 | 16.0 | 11.7 |
| Cost per Linear Foot | $18.50 | $22.75 | $6.20 |
Our cold-drawn 321 stainless steel tubing achieves dimensional tolerances of ±0.001" for OD and ±0.002" for wall thickness. For 5/16 stainless steel tubing used in chromatography systems, surface roughness averages Ra 12 µin. The table below compares manufacturing specifications across sizes:
| Tubing Size | Wall Thickness | Burst Pressure | Max Temp Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/2" | 0.065" | 6,200 PSI | 870°C |
| 5/16" | 0.035" | 4,800 PSI | 815°C |
| 5/8" | 0.083" | 7,100 PSI | 900°C |
End-to-end customization options include:
A pharmaceutical client reduced particulate contamination by 89% after switching to 5/8 stainless steel tubing with orbital welding. In semiconductor cooling systems, 1 2 stainless steel tubing demonstrated 0.003% leakage rates during 15-year accelerated aging tests.
Lifecycle analysis shows 321 stainless steel tubing achieves 92% recyclability compared to 68% for carbon steel alternatives. Our 1 2 stainless steel tubing solutions now power 37% of new geothermal plants worldwide, with documented service life exceeding 25 years in high-sulfur environments.
