About this deal
This tube at the point of manufacture goes through a process where the internal weld bead is rolled. The result is an improved internal finish along the weld, reducing the chance of a crevice where liquid or food product may be trapped. This assists with ‘clean in place’ (CIP) environment food and beverage process lines or other applications such as the pharmaceutical industry. Stainless steel tubes are available in welded or seamless. Where the presence or absence of a seam determines the relative manufacturing process. Metal Supplies™ supply metal tube products to locations throughout the UK and Europe. We are a leading provider of metal and metal services to both commercial and domestic customers, including a comprehensive range of stainless steel products.
has much better corrosion resistance and is the grade recommended for marine environments or coastal applications. This tube is produced by the same process as AW tube but is annealed to relieve stresses and improve ductility. Bright annealing is carried out in a controlled-atmosphere furnace, so that no oxide or scale is formed on the surface.Whatever your needs, The Metal Store can provide the perfect stainless steel tube or pipe. We offer 3 and 6 metre lengths, with diameters from as small as 8mm up to 16mm in grade 316, and ¾” to 2” in grade 304. Stainless tubular and pipe products available in our online shop include nominal bore pipe (along with a complimentary range of butt weld fittings and flanges), square and rectangular hollow sections, hygienic tubes, metric tubes and handrails. Our tubes and pipes are available in either seamless or welded with various mill finishes. The manufacturing process of seamless tubes has been subject to change throughout history. Previously, seamless pipes were manufactured by drilling a hole through a solid steel rod. The rod was then drawn for elongation leaving an uneven sometimes off-centre tube. Hence, nowadays seamless tube is manufactured using a bullet shaped piercer which is gradually pushed through the centre of a heated billet while continuously rolled. This method produces a more even, reliable end product.
The typical silvery shimmer of stainless steel is highly regarded in architectural applications. It’s aesthetic appeal is cause for its frequent application in interior and exterior design. These fittings are advantageous if you’re familiar with using compression fittings. Because they’re typically used in low-pressure systems and tend not to require a user to do any soldering/welding, they’re suitable for domestic use. Generally in 6.000 Metre lengths and commonly in Grades T 304, T 310, T 316 Grade T 321; All in a wide variety of finishes. 6mm OD x 1mm Stainless Tube As deterioration due to weather is minimal stainless pipes are suited for both indoor and outdoor application. At The Metal Store, we offer an extensive range of stainless steel tube (or pipe) products in grades 304 and 316, as well as stainless steel tubes for tube clamps in grade 304.
