¿Qué es la tubería de acero inoxidable?

Tuberías de acero inoxidable son uno de los productos de acero inoxidable. El acero inoxidable no es fácil de oxidar porque se beneficia de contener un mínimo de 10.5% de cromo. El cromo produce una fina capa de óxido en la superficie del acero para evitar una mayor corrosión de la superficie. El aumento de la cantidad de cromo aumenta la resistencia a la corrosión.

Stainless steel pipe also contains varying amounts of Carbon, Manganese and Silicon. More elements such as Nickel and Molibdeno may be added to impart other useful properties such as enhanced formability and increased corrosion resistance.

There are many stainless steel types: 300 series, 400 series and so on. The 300 series of stainless steel grades is unaffected by any of the weak bases such as ammonium hydroxide. Especially 316 y 304/ 304L, so they are often used in producing stainless steel pipes and accesorios de tuberia.
