Light Duty Annular Corrugated Flexible Metal Hose Low Pressure Stainless Steel Corrugated Hose Unbraided

Product Description

Light duty Annular Corrugated Flexible Hose

Product Description

Low pressure stainless steel braided corrugated hose is designed to stay and bend in a certain position providing a stress-free connection between piping systems. To some extent, it can absorb part of vibration and noise created by the equipment. Unbraid or single braid is available.

Light duty flexible metal hose is often used in static places where flow velocity is constantly slow and working pressure is usually low. Its advantage lies in its long service life which can last the machine.

Key Characteristics

FAQ

1.Why doesn't stainless steel rust?

Stainless steel resists rust due to its high chromium content (minimum 10.5%). When exposed to oxygen, chromium forms a thin, invisible passive oxide layer on the surface, which self-heals if damaged (e.g., scratched). This layer blocks further oxidation and corrosion. Alloys with added molybdenum (e.g., 316) enhance resistance to harsh environments like saltwater or chemicals.

2.What's the difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel?

Both are austenitic (non-magnetic, highly workable) but differ in alloying elements. 304 contains ~18-20% chromium and 8-10% nickel, ideal for general use (e.g., kitchenware, architecture). 316 adds 2-3% molybdenum, boosting resistance to chloride corrosion (e.g., seawater, coastal areas, chemical tanks). 316 is more expensive but better for high-corrosion environments.

3.How do I clean and maintain stainless steel products?

Use mild detergents (e.g., soap and water) or specialized stainless steel cleaners. Avoid abrasive tools (steel wool) or harsh chemicals (chlorine bleach, hydrochloric acid), as they can damage the passive layer. For stubborn stains, wipe with a soft cloth and dry immediately to prevent water spots. Regular cleaning preserves shine and corrosion resistance.

4.Is stainless steel magnetic?

It depends on the grade. Austenitic stainless steel (e.g., 304, 316) is generally non-magnetic due to its crystal structure. Ferritic (e.g., 430) and martensitic (e.g., 420) grades are magnetic because of their higher chromium and lower nickel content. Cold working (e.g., bending) may make austenitic grades slightly magnetic temporarily, but this doesn't affect performance.
