Stainless steel piping systems have been used for many decades all over the world to handle waters in the highly corrosive environments of the chemical, pollution control, pharmaceutical and food & beverage industries. There are millions of miles of pipelines, worldwide, used for the transmission of drinking water. These pipelines must offer corrosion resistance to the water itself, soil chemistries, and treatment chemicals in order to provide a long service life and hygienic delivery of drinking quality water.
304 stainless steel has a high resistance to rust. It withstands corrosion from most oxidizing acids and is often used for kitchen and food applications. However, it is susceptible to corrosion from chloride solutions (notably saline environments with high amounts of sodium chloride). Chloride ions can create localized areas of corrosion, called "pitting," which can spread beneath protective chromium barriers to compromise internal structures.
304 grade is the most common form of stainless steel used around the world. The most common form of 304 stainless steel is 18-8, or 18/8, stainless steel, which contains 18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel.
316 grade is the second-most common form of stainless steel. It has almost the same physical and mechanical properties as 304 stainless steel and contains a similar material make-up. The difference is that 316 stainless steel incorporates about 2 to 3 percent molybdenum, which increases corrosion resistance—particularly against chlorides and other industrial solvents.
316 stainless steel is commonly used in many industrial applications involving processing chemicals, as well as high-saline environments such as coastal regions and outdoor areas where de-icing salts are common. Due to its non-reactive qualities, 316 stainless steel is also used in the manufacture of medical surgical instruments.
Primegold Stainless Steel Pipes, fitting and tools provide advantages to the user like easy installation in place of restricted accessibility in few seconds because of crimping tools, saves time and money, installation is very fast and durable.
Primegold Stainless Steel is corrosion resistant steel. Corrosion is a phenomenon as per oxide film theory whereby a thin, stable oxide film with passive coating is formed on the surface of a metal which protects from corrosion, while other plumbing systems like GI system are faster corroding with heavy re-installation costs and minimum service life on the other hand Stainless Steel continues to serve for several years.
Once Primegold Stainless Steel Pipes is installed in the building, users will be free of heavy maintenance as it is designed for a minimum 100 years of service with minimum maintenance.
With the help of press fitting tools, pipes are joined by pressing instead of threaded joints. Restructuring in the reduction of the thickness of the wall. Stainless Steel Pipe is made up of high strength material, therefore is able to hold up more stress than any other plumbing pipes. In addition to this, the corrosion resistance of stainless steel significantly increases the life of the system.
Stainless Steel plumbing system is in harmony with nature, conserves energy, and is easy in maintenance. As per the * CBRI report Primegold Stainless Steel Pipes have more than 100 years of life with minimum maintenance.
Due to low coefficient of friction, it provides lower pumping cost and almost insignificant loss of pressure.
Supply of water through stainless steel is quality wise better for drinking because stainless steel is corrosion free and will not cause contamination.
Primegold Stainless Steel Pipes are available in Indian market with a comfortable length of 3 meters.
It is easily recycled and their alloy content is highly valued. For the recycling process ferrous material is used, which produce 100% recycled content on an average.
Without using any fire protection, stainless steel pipes can be installed in fire risk areas, because it is non-flammable.
Stainless Steel Pipe is made-up of high strength material which can take the pressure upto 16 bars or 250 psi.
Due to hydraulic or electro-mechanical pressing tools, installation of Stainless Pipe and Fittings are easy. No welding or threading of the pipe is require for installation.
Using Primegold S.S. Water Pipe ensures water quality of portable water which gets compromised by using non food grade plumbing system.
