316SS Piping Vs Other Materials?
316SS Piping Vs Other Materials?
(OP)
I have a vacuum pump system in a plastic extrusion application in which my customer would like the piping(1/2", 1" and 2") to be 316SS. However, all other components in the circuit are carbon steel and brass. I didn't think that this could be done?
Can someone direct me to a good reference source for proper piping techniques, specifcally piping dissimilar metals?
Thanks!

Why 316? What corrodants are you dealing with?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Corrosion never sleeps, but it can be managed.
