Stainless Steel UNS S31008 Tubing

Stainless steel UNS S31008 tubing is an incredibly versatile and durable material composed primarily of iron, carbon, and chromium. In addition, small amounts of manganese, phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur are also necessary to create the desired mechanical properties. This type of tubing has a high chromium content which helps it resist corrosion and has excellent weldability. These qualities make stainless steel UNS S31008 tubing one of the most popular materials used within the medical industry due to its reliability and superior physical properties.

SS UNS S31008 Tubing offers many advanced properties and uses compared to other types of steel. Its chromium and nickel content makes it corrosion-resistant, while its heat-treated condition gives it superior strength, flexibility, and malleability. Its high yield strength and creep resistance make it exceptionally well suited for high-temperature and pressure applications in many industries like aerospace, automotive, medical device manufacturing, marine products, pharmaceutical equipment manufacture, furniture production, etc. Additionally, thanks to its excellent formability qualities Stainless Steel UNS S31008 Tubing can be used to fabricate roof support frames, scaffoldings, and ladders.
