Chromium and nickel are critical for corrosion resistance and ductility in stainless steel. Swagelok has maintained chromium content in its fittings at a minimum of 17% and nickel at a minimum of 12% for many years.
For optimal performance, Swagelok stainless steel tube fittings:
Take advantage of a stainless steel chemistry
Are made from only high-quality raw materials
Provide superior Chloride Stress Corrosion Cracking (CSCC) resistance
Can be combined with special alloy tubing to lower cost
