Specification of round stainless steel pipe
Different uses need different specifications of round stainless steel pipe.
Moreover, for round stainless steel pipes that are subjected to fluid pressure, people have to conduct hydraulic tests to test their pressure resistance and quality.
And, it will not leak, wet, or expand under the specified pressure.
Such stainless steel round tubes are qualified products.
Meanwhile, some round stainless steel pipes are subject to crimping test, flaring test, and flattening test according to standards or needs.
Besides, people can calculate the minimum wall thickness according to this formula: tn*0.875=tm.
Among them, tn is the nominal wall thickness.
And tm is the minimum wall thickness. Meanwhile, their units
are all millimeters.
Regarding its diameter, the conventional ones are
9.5,15.9,19.1,25.4,31.8,38.1.
Of course, there are larger diameters: 88.9, 101.6,
114,141,168,159,219,273,323, 406.
In addition, round stainless steel suitable for medical
treatment is as small as a needle.
Next, let’s take a look at the production methods of it.
