ASTM A270 Sanitary Tube Stainless Steel TP316L Seamless Tube For Food Industry
ASTM A270 / A270M TP316L Stainless Steel Sanitary Seamless Tubing
ASTM A270 standard covers the specifications for sanitary seamless and welded tubing. Typically made from austenitic stainless steel such as SS304 or SS316L with common sizes include 1/2 inch to several inches in diameter, which offers excellent corrosion resistance and sanitation properties. They usually have a smooth interior finish, often polished to a 20 Ra or better, which minimizes the risk of contamination and biofilm growth. It's recognized for meeting hygienic and sanitary requirements, making it suitable for applications in high-purity environments.
ASTM A270 Sanitary Stainless Steel Tube Size Range
ASTM A270 sanitary stainless pipe usually refers to the small pipe diameters, normally from 1/2” to 2 1/2”, thickness from 0.049 in (1.24mm) to 0.15 in (3.81mm). Length can be fixed or random
The maximum outer diameter of ASTM A270 tubing is 12 inches (304.8 mm).
ASTM A270 tubing using inch-pound as the standard unit of measure.
Wall thickness tolerance shall not vary more than 12.5%.
