What Are the Benefits of Using Stainless Steel Pipe?

Understanding stainless steel pipes

Stainless steel, invented in the 20th century, is a metallic material whose demand and production capacity in today's society continue to increase. Due to technological advancements and cost reductions, the price of stainless steel has dropped from several thousand dollars per ton to just over one thousand dollars per ton. The lowered cost and superb performance of the product have made stainless steel pipes stand out in the development of all pipes. Additionally, stainless steel is incomparable to other pipes in its nature, and years of practice in various countries have confirmed that it has the lowest life-cycle cost and the best comprehensive performance, making it a green pipe material with great development potential.

Advantages of stainless steel pipes

Hygiene and non-toxicity

Stainless steel is an environmentally friendly and hygienic material in the 21st century. It is not easily contaminated by bacteria, has no dirt, and is easy to clean.

Long service life

According to on-site corrosion test data, the service life of stainless steel pipes can reach 70-100 years, with low use-cycle costs and almost no need for maintenance, avoiding the costs and trouble of replacing pipelines, and having significant economic benefits; less than 1/4 of PPR.

Corrosion resistance and non-scaling

It can avoid the care of basins and bathtubs due to water pipe rust. Cast iron pipes are susceptible to corrosion and rust, with a short service life.

High temperature resistance

The maximum operating temperature of thin-walled stainless steel pipes can reach over 120℃ and the minimum can reach -20℃. The heat deformation temperature of ABS pipes is 80℃. Plastic pipes are not resistant to high temperature and will produce toxic gases when burned.

Convenient connection, low cost, fast speed, simple operation, and safe and reliable

ABS pipes are connected by bonding methods, and cast iron pipes are generally connected by wire connection, which is easy to leak.

Green and environmentally friendly 

Stainless steel is 100% recyclable and will not cause environmental pollution, which is conducive to sustainable development. ABS and PPR pipelines cannot be 100% recycled.

Beautiful, clean, and stylish appearance, giving users a high-end feeling

This material is safe and non-toxic, has no impact on water quality, and is harmless to human health.

UV radiation

Stainless steel pipes show no signs of aging. Plastic pipes age severely under light.

Wide application range

It is suitable for municipal water supply, direct drinking water pipeline, hot water transportation, high-end building water supply, heating and water supply in cold areas in the north, steam pipes, outdoor pipes, urban fire water supply, pump rooms, etc.

Beautiful appearance

The product's inner and outer walls are smooth, with low fluid resistance, soft colors, and beautiful shapes. Cast iron pipes are prone to rust and are not aesthetically pleasing.

In summary, stainless steel pipes are currently the most hygienic, economical, and healthy pipelines. They are a new type of green and environmentally friendly pipe material, with advantages such as long service life, no water contamination, no scaling, environmental hygiene, and wide application range, making it more suitable than any other material for pipe materials.
