SERVICE STEEL OFFERS THE STEEL TUBING FABRICATION THAT YOU NEED
Service Steel stocks steel tubing fabrication in outside diameters from 1/8-inch to 10-inches. This includes grades: 304 and 316 in cold-drawn seamless, hot finished, and welded constructions and low carbon 304-L and 316-L welded. 304L and 316L are specified for applications where welding will be required. This alloy’s lower carbon content helps minimize/eliminate carbide precipitation during the welding process.

Steel Types
Austenitic Steel
These are the Type 200 Series and Type 300 Series alloys.
- Non-magnetic
- Cannot be heat hardened
- High resistance to corrosion
- Steel type of choice in the dairy and food-processing industries
The most common grades are Types 304 and 316.
Ferritic Steel
Along with martensitic, comprise the Type 400 Series alloys.
- Corrosion resistant
- Cannot be heat hardened
Seen more often in the auto industry (e.g., exhaust systems, axles, shafts, and fasteners
Martensitic Steel
Along with ferritic, comprise the Type 400 Series alloys.
- Magnetic
- Can be heat hardened with heat
- Fairly good at resisting corrosion, but do not as good as austenitic or ferritic
Used in cutlery, knives, surgical tools, certain workshop tools like wrenches
Duplex Steel
So-called because they have a two-phase microstructure of ferritic and austenitic stainless steel.
- Twice as strong as regular austenitic or ferritic
- Significantly better toughness and ductility than ferritic
- The best type for resisting corrosion
Often used in situations where chemicals need to be stored or transported, as well as heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and desalination plants
Precipitation-Hardening Steel
Type 600 Series Alloys. Contain chromium and nickel that provide a combination of the properties of martensitic and austenitic grades.
- Gain high strength through heat treatment
- Have the corrosion resistance of austenitic
- High tensile strength
Used in aerospace, nuclear, chemical, and certain construction-type settings.
Service Steel has been supplying customers with steel tube & pipes for 100 years.
Compared to regular steel. stainless steel does not easily corrode, stain, or oxidize/rust. Steel is available from Service Steel in a extensive range of forms, grades, finishes, gauges, widths, and lengths.
Many different industries rely on stainless steel for a wide range of applications including aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, oil and gas, and many more. If you cannot find the exact type of steel you are looking for, please call or contact us.
