4-6m Length Stainless Steel Hex Pipe Tube / Stainless Steel Hollow Bars

Here’s a professional English description of stainless steel hexagonal pipes, covering their introduction, specifications, standards, features, advantages over round pipes, and applications:

1. Introduction to Stainless Steel Hexagonal Pipes

Stainless steel hexagonal pipes are hollow tubes with a regular hexagonal cross-section, made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel (e.g., 304, 316, 201). They combine the durability of stainless steel with the mechanical benefits of a hexagonal shape, making them ideal for structural, decorative, and industrial uses.

2. Specifications

• Material Grades: 304, 304L, 316, 316L, 201, 430, etc.

• Across Flats (A/F): 6mm–100mm (common sizes: 10mm, 12mm, 17mm, 19mm).

• Wall Thickness: 0.5mm–5mm (customizable).

• Length: Standard 6m/piece, or cut-to-length.

3. Standards

• International:

  • ASTM A554 (Decorative Welded Stainless Steel Tubing)

  • JIS G3463 (Japanese Industrial Standard)

• China:

  • GB/T 18705 (Decorative Stainless Steel Welded Pipes)

  • GB/T 12770 (Mechanical Structural Stainless Steel Welded Pipes)

4. Key Features

• Corrosion Resistance: Suitable for harsh environments (e.g., marine, chemical).

• High Strength: Hexagonal structure offers superior torsional and load-bearing capacity.

• Aesthetic Appeal: Sleek edges for modern designs; surface finishes (brushed, mirror, etc.).

• Machinability: Easy to weld, bend, and polish.

5. Advantages Over Round Pipes

6. Applications

• Machinery: Tool handles, bolts, shafts (anti-slip hexagonal grip).

• Construction: Handrails, guardrails, frameworks (sturdy & stylish).

• Automotive: Exhaust brackets, chassis parts (heat/corrosion resistance).

• Furniture: Table legs, lamp stands (durability + design).

• Chemical Industry: Reactor supports, pipelines (acid/alkali resistance).

7. Notes

• Material Selection: 316/L for high-corrosion environments (e.g., coastal areas).

• Surface Finish: Brushed/satin finishes reduce fingerprints; mirror polish for decor.

• Welding: Use stainless steel-specific electrodes to avoid contamination.
