• Stainless Steel grades 304 and 316 belong to
the class of austenitic steels
• The figure to the left illustrates the relative
performance of austenitic steels as compared
to martensitic, ferritic , and carbon steels
• It can be clearly seen that austenitic grades
have relatively superior performance

• The corrosion rate of materials increases
as the velocity of water the carry increases.
• This increase in corrosion rate is
particularly steep in the case of mild steel
and copper
• The increase is only marginal in the case of
Stainless Steel
• The use of higher water velocities can help
to minimize the growth of biofilm.
• This makes Stainless Steel especially
suitable for water applications.

• SS 304 grade is suitable for low to moderate chloride
levels (<200 ppm).
• SS 316 grade is suitable for severe and extremely
severe chloride levels (<1000 ppm) like coastal areas.

• Stainless Steel has along a life even when
used to carry hot water.
• It is much more resistant to corrosion
when compared to copper and GI.
• This excellent corrosion and temperature
resistance of stainless steel make it ideal
for water applications.
• Stainless Steel plumbing systems have an
expected life of 50-100 years which is
similar to the life of buildings.

8. ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY
Pumping
• SS pipes and fittings have smooth inner walls which reduces the friction
on the fluid.
• As a result, less power is required to pump the fluid, thus saving both
energy and cost
Recyclable
• Unlike cement lined and non-metallic pipe, Stainless Steels are easily
recycled and their alloy content is highly valued.
Leaching
• The leaching of metallic elements into drinking water while storage and
distribution is at level consistently below those allowed by the
regulations.

•SS Surfaces are smooth, hard and homogeneous and it is difficult for bacteria & fungi
to make seat for them on it
Anti Bacterial & Anti Fungal
•As the surface roughness is very low (only 0.15 to 0.25 micro-metre), the deposits
and film are very low and it does not require any chemical cleansers
No Internal Cleaning Required
•Not easily damaged by use in public buildingsStrong Material

16. DOUBLE CRIMPING DOES IT BETTER
• We are dedicated to providing the best quality to our
customers
• Single crimping is good but double crimping is better
• It gives extra strength to the joints on either side of the
EPDM ring.
• Air contact with EPDM ring is effectively blocked, thereby
reducing the ageing process.
• It also provides effective shield to EPDM ring against
thermal expansion and contraction of pipes & fittings.

17. OUR PIPES: THEY ARE PICKLED!
• For ages we have been protecting our food from going bad by
Pickling. Turns out, you can do the same for metals too!
• Pickling is the removal of any high temperature scale and any
adjacent low chromium layer of metal from the surface of
stainless steel by chemical means.
• Welding creates a chromium depleted layer on the surface of the
steel underneath the oxide layer, which lowers its corrosion
resistance.
• Pickling restores the chromium layer and hence its corrosion
resistance and also removes contaminants such as ferrous and
ferric oxide particles.

18. ADHERENCE TO BEST QUALITY STANDARDS
Each stainless steel pipe and fitting that you purchase
from us has gone through rigorous tests to check for:
• Material: A chemical test is performed to
guarantee the correct composition of the
product’s material
• Strength and Manufacturing defects: Hydro
testing is performed to test the product’s
strength and identify leaks (if any)
