Value Collection 36103 Seamless Ss Tube 5/16 in Od 304 6-7 Ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 36103 is a seamless 304 stainless steel tube designed for applications requiring corrosion resistance, dimensional consistency, and reliable pressure integrity. With a 5/16 inch outside diameter and a 0.049 inch wall thickness, this tube delivers an inside diameter of 0.214 inches. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams that can act as failure points under cyclic stress or elevated temperatures. Length runs between 6 and 7 feet, making it suitable for routing, fabrication, and custom-length cuts in a variety of trade and industrial settings. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial pipefitters are the typical installers.

This tube is well suited for fluid transfer, instrumentation lines, pneumatic systems, and light structural tubing applications where stainless steel is specified. The 304 grade alloy provides good resistance to oxidation and many corrosive media, making it a common choice in food-service equipment, chemical handling, HVAC condensate and refrigerant-adjacent lines, and general plumbing fabrication. The variable length range of 6 to 7 feet accommodates standard stock cuts and gives fabricators flexibility when routing around equipment or through panels.

Key Features

• Seamless construction for consistent wall thickness and no weld-seam failure points
• 304 stainless steel alloy provides corrosion resistance in a wide range of service environments
• 5/16 inch OD with 0.049 inch wall thickness yields a 0.214 inch inside diameter
• Variable 6 to 7 foot length suits fabrication, routing, and custom-cut applications
• Lightweight at under 1 pound, simplifying handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and general-purpose replacement or new-install seamless stainless steel tube for instrumentation, plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial tubing applications requiring 5/16 inch OD 304 stainless material.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Isolate and depressurize the system fully before cutting, bending, or connecting this tube. Use proper tube cutters and deburring tools to ensure clean, square ends before flaring or fitting connections. Avoid using carbon steel tools that may embed particles and compromise corrosion resistance.
