Chromium is the alloying element that imparts to Stainless Steel their corrosion resistant qualities.
At
Eagle Stainless, we offer an extensive selection of standard stainless tubing
varieties, suitable for applications in all industries. Our stainless tubing
options include hypodermic tubing, fractional tubing, bar stock, metric, pipe,
and square/rectangular tubing available in various sizes and lengths.
Devices
and Components have demanding expectations in the medical, aerospace and
industrial industries. Corrosion
resistance, hygiene, and the strength of stainless steel tubing make it an
ideal choice in these industries. Stainless steel is used where both the properties of steel and corrosion resistance are required. Stainless steel differs from carbon steel by the amount of chromium present.
Unprotected carbon steel rusts readily when exposed to air and
moisture. Stainless steel has an invisible chromium
oxide film on the steel surface makes a passive layer of protection. The thin layer will reform if scratched or damaged
during machining. Lower alloyed grades
resist corrosion in atmospheric and pure water environments; high alloyed
grades can resist corrosion in most acids, alkaline solutions and chlorine
bearing environments making their properties useful in process plants.
Stainless
steel tubing is the best option in a corrosive environment. When the total life cycle is considered,
stainless steel is optimal.
