- SS Pipe for Pharmaceutical Industry

As part of the pharmaceutical industry culture, the instruments are vulnerable to corrosion or altercations due to applications of strong acids or bases and using SS pipelines solutions ensures it is not affected by heat or corrosive elements. In light of the same, we ensure that partnering with experts like the engineers at Industrial Metal Tubes is an assured way to guarantee the integrity of your production process.

As a manufacturer of safety products, we are also closely familiar with quality for standard production. We know how important it is to certify raw materials and establish chains of command and consistent quality controls across the entire production chain. We know how important details are to the ultimate function of safety systems, just like how the smallest differences in stainless steel are critical to its function. It is our job to know these details, and we also consider it our duty to share them with our customers in hopes that, together, we can build a safer pharmaceutical industry.

Above all, stainless steel is the most suitable metal for product contact surfaces in the food and beverage applications. The alloy’s properties are related to chromium and nickel level. Corrosion resistance varies with chromium level, and structural strength will be proportional to the nickel level. For welding purposes, it is better with stainless low carbon content less than 0.03% carbon contents.

The 3A Standards provides specifications regarding alloys and other coatings used in fabrication. However, stainless steel properties may change with continued use, especially under conditions where the chromium oxide layer is altered (e.g. incompatible cleaners, abrasive cleaners, abrasive cleaning pads, or chlorine and related sanitizers).
