Stainless steel threaded pipe fittings and other parts are commonly used in plumbing and industrial applications where a high level of corrosion resistance and durability is required. These fittings and parts are made of stainless steel, which is an alloy of iron, carbon, and a minimum of 10.5% chromium. This combination of metals creates a material that is resistant to corrosion, rust, and staining.
Stainless steel threaded pipe fittings are designed to connect pipes together and create a secure, leak-proof seal. These fittings feature threads on the inside or outside of the fitting that can be tightened to form a connection between two pipes. They come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and styles, including elbows, tees, couplings, and nipples.
