Stainless Steel Ferrule Fitting

Stainless steel tube is typically specified by OD (outside diameter) or A/F (across flat) dimensions, WT (wall thickness), grade, condition and surface finish. It is resistant to many forms of corrosion, has hygienic sterile properties, high quality aesthetic appeal and exceptional strength. Tube is manufactured in round, square and rectangular sections in a variety of wall thicknesses and usually by the processes of longitudinal welding, hot and cold drawing (seamless) or spiral welding. Finishes or appearance range from unpolished to very highly polished. Unpolished has a 2B mill finish, standard polished is a finely grit polished finish and there is a finer buffed finish giving close to a mirror appearance. Finishes are selected to suit application and aesthetic appeal. Stainless steel tube can be joined by welding, which facilitates rigidity in construction, or by the use of mechanical fittings which enables dismantling for hygienic cleaning. The tubular products system incorporates a comprehensive range of stainless steel fittings in the form of elbows, tees, reducers and flanges in various sizes, wall thickness, grades and finishes to suit tube dimensions and tolerances. As-Welded (AW) Tube Decorative & Structural Tube – This tubing is produced direct off the continuous tube welding mill, using cold rolled stainless steel strip made to ASTM standards, with tube produced to commercial limits of straightness in standard or specific customer lengths. AW tube is generally used for structural and decorative applications in mildly corrosive conditions. It is not suitable for applications requiring significant flaring, expanding or bending, nor for fluid transfer or pressure applications. AW tube is also available with one or two rebate slots for support of architectural glass panels. SupaBrite Mirror Polished Tube – This As-Welded tube is ideal for decorative structural applications where a highly reflective appearance is desired, such as prestigious hand rails. The bright finish is not only aesthetically attractive but also gives high corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance. Manufacturing specification: ASTM A554. Food Quality Tube – As-welded food quality tube is stocked by Atlas Steels. This tube at the point of manufacture goes through a process where the internal weld bead is rolled to blend in with the surrounding tube wall profile. The result is an improved internal finish along the weld, reducing the chance of a crevice where liquid or food product may be trapped. This assists with ‘clean in place’ (CIP) of food and beverage process lines and other applications such as the pharmaceutical industry. Further assurance of reliability of food tube comes from the 100% weld NDT mandatory for this product. Complimenting the food quality tube is an extensive range of fittings, also intended for hygienic applications. These are also covered by AS 1528 and include butt welding, screwed and clamp fittings.
