Value Collection 98293 Seamless 316 Ss Tube 1-3/4 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 98293 is a seamless 316 stainless steel tube designed for applications requiring corrosion resistance, pressure integrity, and dimensional consistency. With a 1-3/4 inch outside diameter and a 0.065 inch wall thickness, this tube yields an inside diameter of 1.620 inches. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, making it suitable for fluid transfer, structural, and instrumentation applications where weld-line failure is a concern. It ships in lengths ranging from 6 to 7 feet and weighs approximately 8.19 pounds per piece. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this product type.

This tube is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC coil assemblies, heat exchangers, chemical process lines, and marine or coastal installations where chloride exposure demands the higher molybdenum content of 316-grade stainless steel. The seamless form is also common in instrumentation tubing runs and hydraulic or pneumatic lines where a consistent wall thickness is critical to system performance. Trade professionals handling sanitary, process, or corrosive-fluid piping systems will find this tube appropriate for a wide range of service conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or replacement seamless stainless steel tube for trade and industrial applications requiring 1-3/4 inch OD, 316-grade stainless steel tubing with a 0.065 inch wall thickness.

Installation Notes

Installation of stainless steel tubing should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, plumber, or mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable IPC or ASME B31 piping codes. Shut off and depressurize any connected system before cutting or fitting the tube. Use tooling rated for stainless steel to avoid work-hardening the material during cutting or bending. Avoid contact with carbon steel tools or hardware that could introduce iron contamination and promote surface corrosion.
