Hi folks! I came across this term 'stainless steel tube schedule 40'. Can somebody clarify its significance and usage?
A 'schedule', when referred to pipes, pertains to the wall thickness. Schedule 40 stainless steel tube, hence, stands for tubes with a specific thickness.
And where exactly are these 'schedule 40 tubes' used?
Schedule 40 tubes generally find their use in applications where durability is a priority. This can include water treatment plants, chemical processing plants, and other industries where the tubes are exposed to harsh chemicals.
That clears it up! Thanks for the info.
