Stainless Steel 348 Pipe Fittings

Stainless steel 348 pipe fittings are composed of a combination of elements such as nickel, chromium, and molybdenum. Nickel is the most significant component; it creates a protective layer that prevents corrosion and rust from occurring. Chromium adds strength and increases the workability of the pipe fittings, while molybdenum helps increase their heat resistance and hardness. This combination of elements allows stainless steel 348 pipe fittings to maintain durability even when exposed to extreme temperature changes or humidity. They are also ideal for many industrial purposes because their composition provides excellent corrosion resistance and is easily welded together for various construction projects.

SS 348 pipe fittings offer excellent corrosion resistance and are essential for many industrial applications. The deep-drawing capabilities of this material make it popularly used in the production of engine components, aircraft parts and tanks. It also has specific uses in pressure vessels, and chemical processing or production since its high chromium content makes it highly resistant to oxidation and corrosion under elevated temperatures. It is typically machined into complex shapes, such as elbows, tees and reducers, which has made stainless steel 348 pipe fittings an affordable choice for plumbing systems due to their durability and ease of installation.
