Can precision stainless steel pipes be bent?

Can precision stainless steel pipes be bent? Yes, in fact, as long as it is a precision stainless steel tube after solution heat treatment, it can be bent. Whether it can be bent has nothing to do with the specifications of stainless steel tubes, but also with the raw materials of stainless steel tubes and the bending degree of stainless steel tubes. General austenitic steel has good mechanical properties and can be further bent.

Bending requirements of Zheng Gang precision stainless steel pipe: The bending of stainless steel precision pipe requires high toughness and ductility of materials. 304 stainless steel pipe is softer than 20 1, has good toughness and ductility, is not easy to break, and is convenient for bending and other processing.

However, the price of 304 stainless steel pipe is relatively high, so some people use 20 1 stainless steel pipe instead of 304 to bend the circle to save costs. Ordinary 20 1 stainless steel pipes are easy to break when bent, and the forming rate is very low, but there is a kind of 20 1 stainless steel pipe available, that is, high copper 20 1 stainless steel pipe.

The content of copper in 20 1 stainless steel pipe is helpful to improve the brightness of the pipe, and the content of copper will also improve the toughness of the pipe. Therefore, the pipe made of high copper 20 1 will be softer and more ductile than the ordinary 20 1 stainless steel pipe, and some simple bending processes can be done.
