304 Stainless Steel Pipe for Drinking Water Transmission

Q1: Why is 304 stainless steel pipe suitable for drinking water transmission? A1: It is non-toxic, tasteless, and has excellent corrosion resistance. It will not react with drinking water or release harmful substances, ensuring the safety and hygiene of drinking water.

Q2: What is the difference between 304 and 304L stainless steel pipes? A2: The main difference is the carbon content. 304L is a low-carbon version of 304, with better intergranular corrosion resistance, which is more suitable for thick-walled welded pipelines.

Q3: What is the pressure-bearing capacity of 304 stainless steel pipe? A3: The pressure-bearing capacity depends on the wall thickness and diameter. For ordinary specifications, it can withstand a pressure of 0.6-1.6MPa, which meets the requirements of daily drinking water transmission.

Q4: How to install 304 stainless steel pipe for drinking water? A4: Common installation methods include welding, threading and flange connection. It is recommended to use food-grade sealants to ensure no leakage and avoid secondary pollution of water.

Q5: What is the service life of 304 stainless steel pipe in indoor drinking water systems? A5: Under normal use and proper maintenance, its service life can reach more than 30 years, which is far longer than that of plastic and galvanized pipes.
