The thin and strong oxide film on the surface of stainless steel makes stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance in all water quality including soft water, and also has good erosion resistance. So, what are the specific performance of the erosion resistance of stainless steel water pipes?
Thin-walled pipes can be used without corrosion allowance and the wall thickness is 1/3 of that of galvanized pipes. Stainless steel water pipes do not need coating protection, lighter weight, save materials and energy consumption, can reduce transportation and installation costs, especially beneficial to high-rise buildings.
Stainless steel is the only metal material able to tolerate any drinking water quality, in addition to sterilization, do not need to carry out any control of water quality, performance will not appear corrosion and bad exudate, no odor or turbidity problem. Keep the water clean and sanitary, put an end to secondary pollution and pipeline "red water", "green water" problems, health and safety is fully guaranteed.
It can withstand high speed water currents of up to 30 m/s without being affected by erosion, eddies and water hammering. Even the stainless steel diversion pipes used in high-head power stations with terminal flow rates of up to 60 m/s can still have a mission of up to 100 years.
