304 PVC Coated Tubing Stainless Steel PVC Coated Coiled Tubing
Insulation, Material, Specification
304 PVC coated tubing is stainless steel tubing (type 304) that has been coated with a layer of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) to enhance corrosion resistance, provide electrical insulation, and improve abrasion resistance. The combination of stainless steel’s mechanical strength and PVC’s protective properties makes this tubing ideal for various industrial applications requiring durability and protection against environmental factors.

- Coating: PVC (Polyvinyl chloride)
Specification
- Outer Diameter: Typically ranges from 6 mm to 50 mm (custom sizes available)
- Wall Thickness: Stainless steel 0.5 mm – 2.0 mm; PVC coating thickness 0.3 mm – 1.5 mm
- Coil Length: Standard lengths from 10 meters up to 100 meters per coil
- Finish: Smooth, glossy PVC coating for easy cleaning and reduced friction

Key Features
- Corrosion Resistance: Excellent resistance against oxidation, many chemicals, and weathering due to stainless steel core and protective PVC coating.
- Electrical Insulation: PVC layer provides insulation against electric current, making it suitable for wiring and electronic protection.
- Abrasion Resistance: The durable PVC coating protects the tubing from scratches, mechanical wear, and environmental damage.
- Flexibility: Coiled tubing design allows easy installation and bending without compromising structural integrity.
- Lightweight: Compared to bare stainless steel, the PVC coating reduces noise and vibration and slightly reduces weight.
- Aesthetic Appearance: Smooth, glossy surface improves visual appeal and reduces accumulation of dirt.
