Stainless Steel Pipe | Precision-Cut 304L/316 Tubing Kits

Product Overview

Our Precision-Cut 304L/316 Stainless Steel Tubing Kits are engineered for applications demanding exact tolerances, corrosion resistance, and durability in high-stress environments. Designed for industries like aerospace, stainless steel hydraulic pipe fittings systems, and chemical processing, these kits combine ASTM/ASME-certified materials with advanced laser/plasma cutting technology for seamless integration into critical infrastructure. Customizable dimensions, surface finishes, and bulk packaging ensure efficiency for both small-scale projects and industrial-scale operations.

Key Attributes

  1. Precision Cutting: Laser and plasma cutting ensures ±0.1mm tolerance, ideal for stainless steel hydraulic pipe fittings requiring leak-proof joints.
  2. Corrosion Resistance:
    • 304L: 18-20% chromium resists oxidation and mild acids.
    • 316: 2-3% molybdenum enhances chloride resistance for marine and chemical environments.
  3. Thermal Stability: Withstands temperatures up to 870°C (304L) and 843°C (316), suitable for exhaust and hydraulic systems.
  4. Custom Kits: Pre-cut lengths (1m–12m) with deburred edges reduce installation time by 30%.

Detailed Performance Characteristics

Tensile & Bend Strength

  • Tensile Strength:
    Both grades achieve ≥485 MPa, ensuring structural integrity in high-pressure systems like hydraulic lines and offshore platforms. The austenitic microstructure prevents stress concentration, critical for welded joints in stainless steel hydraulic pipe fittings.
  • Bend Strength:
    Cold-drawn pipes retain ductility under tight-radius bends (1.5x OD). Use mandrel bending tools for how to cut stainless steel pipe applications to avoid work hardening.

Identification Methods

  • Laser Etching/Stamping: Permanent markings include grade ("304L" or "316"), OD, thickness, and heat number per ASTM A480.
  • Certification: Mill Test Reports (MTRs) validate chemical composition (Cr, Ni, Mo) and mechanical properties.

Weight Calculation

Use the formula:

Example: A 100mm OD pipe with 5mm wall thickness weighs ~11.6 kg/m. Download our stainless steel pipe chart for bulk calculations.

Causes of Stainless Steel Rust

Despite its corrosion resistance, rust can occur under:

  1. Chloride Exposure: Seawater or de-icing salts disrupt the passive chromium oxide layer, causing pitting.
  2. Mechanical Damage: Scratches from improper how to cut stainless steel pipe techniques expose raw metal to oxidation.
  3. Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with carbon steel in conductive fluids accelerates degradation.
  4. Improper Welding: High carbon precipitation in heat-affected zones reduces corrosion resistance. Use low-carbon 304L/316L and post-weld annealing.

Applications

  • Hydraulic Systems: Stainless steel hydraulic pipe fittings for high-pressure fluid transfer.
  • Aerospace: Precision-cut tubes for fuel lines and structural components.
  • Chemical Processing: ERW-welded 316 pipes handle sulfuric acid and chlorides.
