Specifications of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

The table below covers the key specification details for Stainless Steel instrumentation tube fittings available at Renox Impex, including standards, sizes, pressure ratings, and thread types.

SS Compression Tube Fittings Sizes

Renox Impex stocks SS compression tube fittings in sizes from 6mm to 38mm OD and 1/4" to 1 1/2" inch, across all major connection types. The table below lists fitting types with their available forms.

Chemical Composition of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

Grade selection affects the chemical composition significantly. SS 316 and 316L both carry molybdenum, which the 304-series grades do not. The table below shows elemental limits for the four grades most used in tube fittings.

Mechanical Properties of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

The L-grade variants, 304L and 316L, show lower tensile and yield strength figures compared to their standard counterparts. That tradeoff comes with better weldability and less risk of sensitization. Typical values are listed below.

Equivalent Grades of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

The same material is referred to by different designations depending on the standard in use. Below is a cross-reference of the four grades across UNS, EN, DIN, JIS, and BS systems.

Industrial Applications of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

SS tube fittings go into process plants, offshore facilities, power stations, and several other sectors. Carbon steel corrodes too quickly in many of these settings, and plastic fittings simply cannot handle the pressures involved.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the common types of SS instrumentation tube fittings?

Some of the common types are union, male connector, female connector, elbow, tee, bulkhead connector, ferrule fittings and blanking ends.

What materials are used for Stainless Steel tube fittings?

SS 304, 304L, 316, and 316L are the grades most often used. The right grade depends on the fluid, temperature, and corrosion conditions involved.

What sizes are available in Stainless Steel instrumentation tube fittings?

Inch sizes 1/8" to 2" and metric sizes 3mm to 50mm cover most standard instrumentation and process tubing requirements.

What pressure ratings are available for SS instrumentation tube fittings?

Fittings come at 1000 Psi, 3000 Psi, 6000 Psi & 10000 Psi. The right rating depends on the operating pressure of the system and the needed safety margin.

Which thread types are available in Stainless Steel tube fittings?

NPT, BSPT, and BSPP thread forms are available. Choice depends on the piping standard followed in the plant or project.

Which industries use Stainless Steel instrumentation tube fittings?

Oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, chemical processing, marine, aerospace, sugar, and food processing are the main sectors using these fittings.

What are the advantages of Stainless Steel instrumentation fittings?

Corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength, reusability, and suitability for high-pressure service across a range of process fluids are the main practical advantages.
