Typically crafted from high-quality grades like 304 or 316L stainless steel, **Stainless Steel Corrugated Tubing** boasts impressive corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and thermal stability. The corrugated structure enhances flexibility and accommodates expansion and contraction due to temperature fluctuations, all while withstanding high pressures. Depending on the specific application’s needs for pressure and mechanical protection, it can be used with or without a protective braiding. The smooth internal bore guarantees consistent flow characteristics, even in dynamic or high-frequency settings.
This tubing finds its place in **HVAC systems**, **gas and fluid transmission**, **solar heating systems**, **chemical plants**, and **industrial machinery**, where resistance to corrosion, heat, and pressure is essential. It’s also a go-to choice for **automotive**, **marine**, and **residential plumbing applications** that require both flexibility and reliability. With Bosega’s Stainless Steel Corrugated Tubing, you get an efficient and durable solution for connecting components in systems that face thermal cycling, vibration, or space limitations, all while ensuring safe and uninterrupted flow performance.
