1. Pollution and corrosion resistance
Corrosion is the main enemy of metal pipes. The outer surface of steel, iron and concrete pipes is degraded by soil and ultraviolet rays. The inner walls of pipes made of other materials are prone to rust, be damaged by wear or accumulate debris. However, due to the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, this situation is rare. In applications such as sanitary water supply or hospital applications, this provides advantages for stainless steel.
2. Value
When using stainless steel pipes, the durable products you want to buy will keep your business going for decades. It is a reliable material that is easy to maintain and install. The maintenance cost of stainless steel is low, and due to its corrosion resistance, it is unlikely that stainless steel will need to be replaced for decades.
3. Strength and versatility
Different materials such as nickel, molybdenum or nitrogen can be added to stainless steel to enhance its corrosion resistance. Stainless steel can withstand extreme temperatures. By adding different materials to stainless steel, the tube wall can be made thinner and less material, which means that the final product adds less weight, making it an ideal choice for many commercial and industrial uses.
4. Appearance
Bare stainless steel pipes and fittings are an excellent choice for commercial establishments because the material has a natural luster and elegant appearance.
5. Environmental protection
Stainless steel is not a petroleum product. In fact, unlike other piping materials, it does not need to be coated or lined with any material at all. When you need to replace or dispose of stainless steel pipes, it is 100% recyclable, thereby reducing the impact on the environment. As much as 50% of all new stainless steel produced in the United States is made from recycled scrap metal.
