With the aim of providing more choice in the commercial market, Pegler Yorkshire has announced the launch of the XPress SS630 tube – a new grade of stainless steel tube that is said to benefit from the same strength and corrosion properties as the 316 but at a significantly lower cost.
Suitable for use across a wide variety of building services and industrial applications, the SS630 system can be used in commercial heating and fire protection systems and also aggressive environmental applications, such as shipbuilding. It is available in sizes 15-54mm and 6m lengths and meets a wide range of approvals and international standards.
Lightweight and easy to handle, the presence of titanium gives the tube strength and formability which means that sizes up to 28mm can also be bent to suit. The SS650 range completes the tube offering up to 108mm.
The tube is compatible with Pegler Yorkshire’s standard XPress Stainless Steel fittings range and benefits from a ‘Leak Before Press’ (LBP) design which helps to identify any joints left un-pressed.
“With the price of stainless steel sometimes being prohibitive for some projects and contractors this does truly offer a hugely viable alternative,” says Amy Sedgwick, Press Systems Market Manager. “We have listened to what our customers need and introduced this new grade of pipe which will provide the solution to a number of current market issues, not to mention suit a large range of applications.”
