Corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe fittings

Stainless steel pipe fittings are considered as healthy materials and are widely used in food processing and transportation pipelines, including pharmaceutical industry, beverage, brewing, etc. The stainless steel pipe fitting material has superior performance, effectively reduces the transportation cost, does not scale in the long-term transportation process, the inner wall is smooth and clean, and the transportation energy consumption is low, so it is the lowest transportation cost water pipe material by far. In addition, it is also used in medicine, such as various human body steel brackets, steel nails, artificial bones, artificial teeth, etc. Stainless steel pipe fittings are almost the only healthy materials that can be implanted into the human body.

Stainless steel pipe fittings have unique corrosion resistance, which can react with oxidants to form a thin and dense oxide film to prevent further oxidation reaction. For other types of metal pipes, there is almost no passivation function, which is one of the main reasons why the corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe fittings exceeds that of ordinary metal pipes.

At the same time, stainless steel is also an environmental protection material. Water pipes made of stainless steel will not cause secondary pollution to the water quality, meeting the health requirements. The stainless steel water pipe is a kind of water pipe that can be completely recycled, and will not leave untreated garbage for future generations. The strength of stainless steel water pipe is higher than any water pipe material, which greatly reduces the leakage of water pipe due to external forces, and effectively saves water resources.
