Stainless Steel 316 Capillary Tubes are highly engineered tubular products which are fabricated using highly corrosion-resistant, high-strength, and highly performing austenitic stainless steel having molybdenum. Such tubes are widely used in instrumentation, medical equipment, chromatography, hydraulics, food processing, and marine applications where there is need for exact control of flow of fluid or gas. Stainless Steel 316 capillary tubes can be supplied as seamless or welded tubular products which have very good tolerance and surface finish as per ASTM standards. They can be used in conjunction with stainless steel seamless pipe & tubes, welded pipe & tubes, 304 seamless pipe tubes and stainless steel instrumentation tubes to form complete piping and instrumentation tubes. USA Piping Solution provides best quality SS 316 Capillary Tubes in various sizes with guaranteed quality with competitive rates and on time delivery across India and the globe.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Stainless Steel 316 Capillary Tubes?
Stainless Steel 316 Capillary Tubes are small-diameter precision tubes made from SS 316 stainless steel. They offer excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and accurate dimensions for critical applications.
What are SS 316 Capillary Tubes used for?
SS 316 Capillary Tubes are used in medical equipment, instrumentation, chromatography, hydraulic systems, chemical processing, and marine applications where precise fluid or gas flow is required.
What is the difference between SS 304 and SS 316 Capillary Tubes?
SS 316 Capillary Tubes contain molybdenum, providing better resistance to chlorides, chemicals, and seawater than SS 304, making them suitable for more demanding environments.
Are SS 316 Capillary Tubes corrosion resistant?
Yes. SS 316 Capillary Tubes offer excellent resistance to corrosion, pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride-containing environments.
Can SS 316 Capillary Tubes be used in marine applications?
Yes. SS 316 Capillary Tubes are widely used in marine and offshore applications because they provide excellent resistance to seawater corrosion and salt-laden environments.
