A stainless steel pipe is a type of pipe made from a steel alloy that contains a minimum of 10.5% chromium, which provides corrosion resistance. Stainless steel pipes are widely used in a variety of industries because of their strength, durability, and resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and staining.
Key Characteristics of Stainless Steel Pipes:
Stainless steel pipes are highly resistant to rust, corrosion, and staining
excellent strength, can withstand high pressure, and are very durable.
The smooth surface of stainless steel prevents bacteria and germs from adhering,
Stainless steel pipes have an attractive, shiny appearance
