Stainless Steel: What to Know

March 17, 2023
Stainless steel is the term used for the family of iron-based alloys that contains at least 10% chromium by weight. Chromium is what gives steel its unique stainless corrosion-resistant properties.

Stainless Steel Tubing is used in a variety of applications, including marine equipment, medical equipment, structural application, gas lines, heat exchangers, condensers, and any application requiring strength, corrosion resistance, or heat resistance. Operating environments significantly affect the performance of stainless steel. For these reasons, temperatures and chemicals are among issues to consider when determining the right grade for an application or end product.
