Stainless Steel 201 Barrel Nipple Pipe Fittings

201Stainless steel barrel nipple pipe fittings are composed of chromium, nickel, manganese and a trace of nitrogen. This mix of metals creates an incredibly durable blend resistant to corrosion and rust–perfect for withstanding heavy usage in the toughest industrial and residential settings. Adding small amounts of nitrogen also helps increase strength and reduce the brittleness associated with some pure stainless steel varieties. By engineering this precise type of alloy, these barrel nipples provide a strong yet lightweight connection point for multiple pipes.

A key advantage of using Stainless Steel 201 Barrel Nipple Pipe Fittings is that they can resist corrosion better than ordinary carbon steel. This makes them ideal for use in environments where the fittings may be exposed to chemical reagents or saltwater, such as when installing an outdoor shower. The stainless steel used in these fittings also provides good resistance to oxidation and performs well even at high temperatures, making them suitable for applications where temperature extremes are common. Additionally, it is a cost-effective material which helps keep installation prices lower. SS 201 Barrel Nipple Pipe Fittings can make a practical addition to any pipe assembly due to their ease of fitting, durability, and resistance to corrosion and oxidation.
