Viega 82020 316 Stainless Steel Tubing 1-1/2 in X 20 Ft

Product Description

The VIEGA 82020 is a 316 stainless steel tubing section designed for demanding plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping applications. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 20 feet in length with a 0.07-inch wall thickness, this tubing provides a balance of structural integrity and corrosion resistance. The 316 alloy grade offers elevated resistance to chlorides and chemical exposure compared to standard 304 stainless, making it a reliable choice in corrosive environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of product in both commercial and industrial settings.

This tubing is suited for use in hydronic systems, process piping, sanitary lines, and other mechanical applications where corrosion resistance and material purity are required. Its 20-foot length minimizes joints in long straight runs, reducing potential leak points. The 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for coastal installations, chemical facilities, food service environments, and anywhere exposure to moisture or corrosive agents is a concern.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel alloy for superior corrosion resistance over standard 304 grade
• 1-1/2 inch nominal diameter for compatibility with standard fittings and couplings
• 20-foot length reduces the number of joints needed in straight runs
• 0.07-inch wall thickness provides structural rigidity for moderate-pressure applications
• Weighs 20.74 pounds per piece for straightforward handling on the job site

Compatibility

Designed for use as 1-1/2 inch nominal 316 stainless steel tubing in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. Compatible with standard 1-1/2 inch stainless steel fittings, couplings, and press or threaded connections rated for this tubing type.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and standards such as the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting or joining this tubing. Use cutting tools rated for stainless steel to avoid work-hardening the material at cut edges, and deburr all cut ends before assembly. Avoid contact with dissimilar metals in corrosive environments to prevent galvanic action.
