The stainless steel can be readily bent, formed, punched, and drilled. New and improved methods to fasten stainless steel tubes for pipes to themselves or to other materials are making its use simpler and fabrication faster. It is easier, faster and cheaper to paint or coat (22.3% less surface area) as well as to weld in both the shop and field (due to restricted chemistries) no preheating or post-heating is required. It is facile to fit mating parts together (no notching or copying of joints as with beams or channels) and to reduce weight to amass savings in erection and shipping costs.
Stainless Steel tube (tubing) can be used for a wide variety of mechanical applications. It may be used either statically or dynamically. I’s close tolerances, good finish, and dense structure make it ideal for parts such as structural support and parts, frames, racks, trailer beds and trailer components, structural components and supports for buildings, bridges, and highways, conveyors, machine parts, guides, and supports, safety and deck rails, sign posts, athletic equipment, ornamental usages and a wide range of applications in industrial, construction, automotive, appliance, furniture and agricultural industries. info@primesteeltube.com
What are the advantages of the stainless steel tube?
Compared with the plastic tube, the stainless steel tube has more excellent mechanical intension; resistant properties against pressure and heat, etc. as the substrate is steel tube, the product will not be brittle and aging. It is the upgrading replacement for galvanized tube used in the conveying tap water, coal gas, chemical products and other fluid, as well as heating engineering. Apart from the same shape and installation with the conventional galvanized tube, the product also plays an important role in delivering tap water through heavy caliber in place of aluminum and plastic composite tube. It is widely accepted by customers and becomes one of the most competitive new products in pipe market.
Architectural/Design Advantages
• High quality surface finish
• Appearance in exposed applications can become an exciting and visual part of the design of buildings and other structures
• Cost effective in relation to other building materials
• Ability to conceal essential services Engineering Advantages
• Greater design properties in both axis (moment of inertia, section modulus and radius of gyration)
• High resistance to torsional loading
• Particularly suited for compression column applications
• Less weight-per-foot
• Diversity: strength, formability, toughness and corrosion resistance
• Less resistance to air and water flow info@primesteeltube.com
