1.Product Overview
Stainless steel pipes (SS pipes) are high-performance tubular products made from corrosion-resistant steel alloys. They are widely used in industries requiring durability, hygiene, and resistance to extreme environments.
Key Features:
✔ Corrosion Resistance – Excellent performance in acidic, alkaline, and chloride-rich environments
✔ High Strength – Withstands high pressure and mechanical stress
✔ Hygienic & Easy to Clean – Ideal for food, pharmaceutical, and medical applications
✔ Temperature Resistance – Suitable for cryogenic to high-temperature applications
✔ Aesthetic Appeal – Polished finishes available for architectural use
