Stainless Steel Tubing

Stainless steel tubing is commonly associated with large scale residential applications such as protective balustrading for a balcony. Stainless steel tubing will often also be found in the hand railing on each floor of a multi-story office building. The main driver of this is its inherit resistance to corrosion and high temperatures meaning it can survive under extreme conditions unperturbed. Stainless steel tubing is used in many industries where longevity and resilience are of importance.

In construction, it is fairly common to see stainless steel tubing used in hand railing. However, there are many other applications in the industry where stainless steel tubing is used. For example, door manufacturers make many of their handles from stainless steel tubing. Moreover plumbers make use of the material for its corrosion and rust resistant properties.
