Value Collection SC01412899 316 Ss Seamless Tube 1/2 in Od 6 Ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC01412899 is a seamless 316 stainless steel tube designed for fluid, gas, and instrumentation line applications across industrial, HVAC, plumbing, and process piping trades. Measuring 6 feet in length with a 1/2 inch outside diameter, 0.430 inch inside diameter, and a 0.035 inch wall thickness, this tube delivers the corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency required for demanding service environments. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential failure points under pressure or cyclic stress. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this product.

This tube is suited for residential and commercial applications where corrosion resistance is a priority, including refrigerant lines, hydraulic systems, chemical transfer, food processing environments, and marine installations. The 316 material grade provides enhanced resistance to chlorides and acidic media compared to standard 304 stainless, making it a practical choice for coastal, chemical, or sanitary service conditions. Each unit ships as a single 6-foot length.

Key Features

• Seamless construction for uniform wall thickness and no weld-seam vulnerabilities
• 316 stainless steel grade for superior chloride and corrosion resistance
• 1/2 inch OD with 0.035 inch wall and 0.430 inch ID for precise flow calculations
• 6-foot length suits most field-cut instrumentation and process line runs
• Applicable across HVAC, plumbing, marine, and industrial process systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style seamless stainless steel tube for use in instrumentation, process, and mechanical systems requiring 1/2 inch OD tubing with 316 grade material.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified industrial mechanic following applicable IPC or ASME B31.3 process piping guidelines. Isolate and depressurize the system completely before cutting, fitting, or connecting this tube. Use appropriate tube cutters and deburring tools to ensure clean, square ends before compression, flare, or weld-end connections. Do not bend below the minimum bend radius for this wall thickness without proper tube bending equipment, as kinking will compromise flow and structural integrity.
