Stainless Steel Tubing

Stainless steel tubing is mainly used for transport of fluid and gas in pneumatic, hydraulic or process applications. This includes uses in industries such as the automotive industry, construction, architecture, process industries, and aluminium smelting facilities, food and sugar production plants, oil refineries and power plants. There are three dimensions of tubing generally ordered. These are Outside Diameter (O.D.), Inside Diameter (I.D.) and wall thickness. Accordingly, the difference of tubing from pipes is that tubing’s diameter is designed and used for product specification and for its particular uses while pipes are for general purposes.

Among the general types of tubing are as follows:

  • Metal Tubing
  • Plastic Tubing
  • Rubber/Silicone Tubing
  • Structural/Mechanical Tubing

As for stainless steel products, the types of tubing are classified as follows:

  • Custom Tubing – you can customise tubing according to specific needs.
  • Standard Tubing – has two types as well. These are Standard Hypodermic Tubing and Standard Fractional Tubing.
  • Cut to length Tubing - cutting the tubing to the exact length is important to suit every industrial need. Other factors which affect tolerance in cutting are the grades of stainless steel and the finish of tubing.

A lot of stainless steel tubing manufacturers today also offer custom-fabricated products. Advanced technology greatly contributed for more efficient results in the processing of tubing innovations. Examples of these advanced processing involve CNC Machining, Bending & Coiling, End Forming, Laser Welding & Cutting and Centerless Grinding. Plus, there are various ways involved in providing the best finishing possible for stainless steels.
