Concept of Stainless Square Tube/Pipe

Stainless steel square tube is a hollow long steel strip. It is called square tube because its cross section is square. It is widely used as a pipeline for conveying fluids, such as oil, natural gas, water, coal gas, steam, etc. In addition, when the bending and torsional strength are the same, the weight is lighter, so it is also widely used in the manufacture of mechanical parts and engineering structures.

Performance of Stainless Square Tube/Pipe

Metals can react with oxygen in the atmosphere to form an oxide film on the surface. The iron oxide formed on ordinary carbon steel will continue to oxidize, causing the rust to continue to expand and eventually form holes. This can be done by electroplating with paint or oxidation-resistant metal to protect the surface of carbon steel, but this protective layer is only a thin film. If the protective layer is damaged, the steel below will begin to rust again. Whether the stainless steel pipe is corroded is related to the chromium content in the steel. When the chromium content in the steel reaches 12%, it is not easy to be corroded. The chromium content of Xiyouwo 201 stainless steel pipe reaches more than 13%, and the chromium content of 304 stainless steel pipe reaches more than 18%.

Applicable conditions of Stainless Square Tube/Pipe

In the atmosphere, a layer of passivated, dense chromium-rich oxide is generated on the surface of the stainless steel pipe to protect the surface and prevent further reoxidation. This oxide layer is extremely thin, through which the natural luster of the steel surface can be seen, giving stainless steel a unique surface. If the chromium film is destroyed, the chromium in the steel and the oxygen in the atmosphere will regenerate a passivation film to continue to play a protective role. In some special environments, stainless steel will also fail due to some local corrosion, but stainless steel is different from carbon steel and will not fail due to uniform corrosion, so the corrosion allowance is meaningless for stainless steel pipes.

Uses of Stainless Square Tube/Pipe

In industry, stainless steel square tubes are mainly used for some conveying pipelines. Of course, it is more widely used in the construction industry, such as stair handrails, window guards, railings, road partitions, etc. At present, many products use stainless steel pipes, such as bicycles, medical equipment, cars, etc.

Advantages of Stainless Square Tube/Pipe

Stainless steel square tubes are widely used for certain reasons, the most important of which is that they have a long service life, good corrosion resistance, and are light in weight but very strong, which reduces the weight of the product and increases its bearing capacity, making consumers feel more assured when using them.
