Key Technical & Aesthetic Features
-
Tensile & Bend Resistance
Our fittings achieve a minimum tensile strength of 350 MPa, making them ideal for both structural and decorative applications like exposed ceiling grids or outdoor sculptures. The elongation rate of ≥10% ensures flexibility for curved designs without compromising integrity. -
Corrosion Protection
Hot-dip galvanization forms a zinc-iron alloy layer (70–120 μm) that resists rust in humid or coastal environments. For indoor use, electro-galvanized options provide a smoother finish (25–40 μm) with uniform coating. -
Weight Calculation
Formula for galvanized pipe dimensions chart compatibility:Example: A 1.5" (OD 48.3 mm) pipe with 3.2 mm wall thickness weighs 3.9 kg/m.
-
Identification & Customization
- Laser-etched markings include ASTM standard, size, and batch number.
- Custom powder-coated finishes (RAL/Patina options) for seamless integration into modern or rustic designs.
Why Stainless Steel Can Rust (and How Our Fittings Prevent It)
While stainless steel resists corrosion through its chromium oxide layer, rust can occur due to:
- Mechanical Damage: Scratches expose the iron substrate to oxygen.
- Chemical Exposure: Chlorides (e.g., de-icing salts) degrade the passive layer.
- Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with dissimilar metals like copper.
- High Temperatures: Prolonged exposure above 500°C oxidizes chromium.
Our Solution:
- 316L Stainless Add-Ons: 16–20% chromium + 2–3% molybdenum for coastal or industrial areas.
- Passivation Treatment: Post-fabrication acid baths enhance oxide regeneration.
