中文简体Stainless steel tubing is used for many applications in high-purity fluid systems such as semiconductor, pharmaceutical, fine chemical, food & beverage, and analytical industries. High-purity tubing can transmit fluids without contaminating the system with particles or bacteria. These tubes also have excellent weldability, corrosion resistance, and ductility.
When selecting the right type of tube for an application, there are several factors to consider including the material, diameter, wall thickness, and bending radius. In addition, the tube should be welded using the proper techniques and equipment to ensure the strongest welds. This will not only increase the strength of the tubing, but it will also reduce the potential for leaks and other problems that may result from improper welding.
Another important factor to consider is the surface finish of the tube. Stainless steel has a superior surface finish that resists corrosion and oxidation. This makes it an ideal choice for many applications that require a durable, long-lasting material. Stainless steel also has good forming and welding characteristics.
The corrosion resistance of stainless steel is further enhanced by the presence of chromium. This element forms a passive oxide layer on the stainless steel surface, which improves its resistance to chlorides. This is particularly important in applications such as brewing and coastal environments where the stainless steel tubing may be exposed to chloride-containing chemicals.
Stainless steel tubing can be electropolished to achieve a smooth, bright surface finish. This process removes impurities and imperfections such as scratches, dullness, pitting, etching, and scale from the metal surface. Electropolishing also improves the overall corrosion resistance of stainless steel.
The resulting high-purity EP tubing has a smooth, mirror-like appearance that is resistant to corrosion and oxidation. It can be rolled, drawn and formed into a variety of shapes. In addition, the low coefficient of friction of EP tube makes it easier to bend than standard stainless steel tubing.
Stainless steel EP tubing can be supplied in standard lengths of 20 ft, 4 m and 6 m to meet a variety of needs. Baorui uses strict specifications for raw materials, electropolishing process, ultra-pure water cleaning, and packaging in the cleanroom to avoid contaminant residues and achieve better roughness, cleanliness, corrosion resistance, and weldability of stainless steel EP tubing.
Stainless steel EP tubing is ideally suited for high-purity fluid lines in semiconductor, pharmaceutical, fine chemical, food/beverage, and analytical industries. Unlike other types of stainless steel tubing, EP tubing has a polished internal surface that significantly improves the flow path and reduces particle generation or condensation. This helps to increase the life of the tubing and saves money and resources in the long run by reducing maintenance and replacement costs. Moreover, the low coefficient of friction of EP tubing reduces wear and tear on the bend area, which can be an issue with other types of stainless steel tubes. Moreover, the softer, smoother surface of EP tubing makes it easier to handle and install.
