Stainless steel hydraulic fittings

Pipe fittings are the process where we divert the flow of the water by using piping components like tees, elbows, etc. In pipe fittings, we change the pipe sizes by using reducing tees, reducers, etc. Here, we use coupling to connect the flow of water and caps to stop the water.

Stainless steel high pressure pipe fittings are completely designed for service in wet environments. This grade has excellent workability in terms of intergranular attacks. The SS high pressure pipe fittings can be exposed in a crevice and pitting corrosion in environments that contain a high level of reducing agents.

Stainless steel is an excellent choice for hydraulic adapters and hose ends. Stainless steel is incredibly strong and corrosion resistant. It is an alloy of steel that contains more than 10.5% chromium. The chromium in stainless steel provides increased resistance to oxidation, and the resistance increases as the ratio of chromium to steel increases. The corrosion resistance in stainless steel hydraulic fittings is due to the formation of a self-repairing layer of chromium oxide on the surface of the stainless steel. Because stainless steel is corrosion resistant, stainless steel fittings are an ideal choice for applications where the hydraulic fluid or the environment is corrosive. Stainless steel is also much tougher than carbon steel at lower temperatures.

Stainless steel compression tube fittings are a mechanism used both to seal and to grip tubing. The mechanical advantage and geometry of this kind of fitting produces a leaktight assembly. 316L stainless steel pipe fittings adopt high grade stainless steel and sealing materials, the fittings can be rapid installed and disassembled.
