Stainless steel round pipe 45x1.5 mm AISI 304 (600 GRIT) — a premium high-quality standard of structural metal product of precise round gauge, manufactured from highly reliable food-grade stainless steel. Due to the balanced combination of the outer diameter of 45 mm and the optimal wall thickness of 1.5 mm, this profile provides excellent bending rigidity at a low specific weight, allowing the creation of durable yet lightweight metal structures. The inner through diameter of the pipe is 42 mm. The model is manufactured using advanced high-precision automatic TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding technology, which guarantees maximum weld strength. The weld joint is located inside the product, and the outside is subjected to multi-stage mirror polishing with ultra-fine abrasives to the highest roughness class of 600 GRIT (chrome, mirror, gloss). This ensures flawless architectural aesthetics, reference gloss, and maximum surface smoothness, which significantly facilitates maintenance and cleaning. The pipe is supplied in bars with a length of 6 m.
Material of Manufacture and Standards
This profile is manufactured from high-quality alloyed austenitic stainless steel grade AISI 304, which is a direct analogue of the 08Х18Н10 alloy according to GOST and the European standard EN 1.4301. The high content of chromium (about 18%) and nickel (8–10%) ensures the formation of a stable passive protective layer on the metal surface. This guarantees the maximum level of protection against corrosion, oxidation, and the influence of many chemical substances, as well as high hygiene properties (food standard). Production is strictly regulated by leading international engineering standards ASTM A-554 (USA) and EN 10296-2 (Europe). This guarantees perfect geometric roundness of the product along the entire length of the bar, high calibration precision, and reliability of the weld joint. The country of origin of this series is Vietnam.
Scope of Application and Purpose
The combination of a 45 mm gauge, a 1.5 mm wall, and mirror gloss (600 GRIT) makes this pipe a universal material for a wide range of tasks. It is mass-used in architecture and construction for the installation of premium handrails, railings, stairs, and light fencing systems. The profile is indispensable in the manufacture of commercial and exhibition equipment, bar counters, furniture frames for the HoReCa segment, as well as in the food and chemical industries. Due to its increased resistance to environmental influences, the pipe is excellent for manufacturing outdoor brackets, flagpoles, masts, flag holders, and decorative stands for banners.
Automotive Engineering and Tuning: due to its flawless cross-sectional round geometry, light weight, and exceptional thermal resistance, this pipe is one of the best materials for upgrading and building reliable vehicle exhaust systems (manufacture of mufflers, exhaust tracts, and decorative tips).
Recommended Environment: open air (outdoor use in moderate climates), areas with high humidity (swimming pools, saunas, bathrooms, restrooms), coastal regions, production workshops of food enterprises, mechanical engineering, technology, and elements of commercial or passenger transport.
Technical and Operational Limitations:
• Structural Purpose: the product belongs to the category of structural metal products (ASTM A-554) and has a hollow structure. Due to the specifics of its purpose and the type of weld joint, this pipe is strictly forbidden to be used as a main pipeline in systems under high hydrodynamic, steam, or any internal pressure.
• Chemical Environment: despite the high corrosion resistance of AISI 304 steel, its prolonged use in extremely aggressive chemical environments and in direct contact with concentrated acids or chlorine-based compounds should be avoided.
• Thermal Loads: the profile features high resistance to temperature drops. The safe maximum continuous working temperature is +600°C. Maximum short-term thermal heating is allowed up to +850°C. The minimum operating temperature is -196°C.
Technical Recommendations for Mirror Surface Care
Recommended Cleaning Methods:
To preserve the original reference glossy shine of the 600 GRIT surface, mild soapy solutions or specialized chlorine-free disinfectants should be used. Cleaning is performed exclusively with a soft cloth (microfiber) or a foam sponge, which easily remove dust and traces of touch.
Prohibited Care Products:
It is not allowed to use agents containing chlorine, active acids, as well as abrasive powders and stiff metal brushes or scourers. Failure to comply with these rules leads to micro-damage of the passive protective layer of the product, the appearance of scratches, and rapid dulling of the gloss.
The products are delivered in proper commercial condition (new) in a protective polymer film, which completely minimizes the risk of accidental damage, scratches, and scuffs during logistical operations, warehouse storage, and installation.
