Stainless Steel 201 Cap Pipe Fittings

201 Stainless steel cap pipe fittings comprise several chemical components, such as iron, chromium, nickel, and manganese. The stainless steel contains a minimum of 16 per cent chromium; chromium is integral in making the material corrosion-resistant, while the nickel content is added to increase the toughness and tensile strength. Nickel also creates an inner oxidation layer that is extremely resistant to rusting and further corrosion over time. Small amounts of manganese can also help produce a stiffer material with superior wear resistance qualities. For these reasons and more, stainless steel is ideal for cap pipe fittings in various situations.

SS 201 cap pipe fittings are a versatile and reliable option for many applications in the pipeline industry, from water, oil and gas and even chemicals. This pipe fitting has great resistance to chloride ion stress corrosion cracking and is thus especially suitable for use in marine environments and coastal areas. The chromium content also offers great formability, weldability and high-temperature strength, making it perfect for a wide range of industries. The low nickel content compared to other stainless steels gives Stainless steel 201 cap pipe fittings lower cost advantages while maintaining excellent properties. These characteristics make it one of the most trusted products in the industry.
