Eagel 1 1/2" OD Seamless 304/316 Stainless Steel Tubing | Sanitary, Weldable & Corrosion-Resistant for DIY, Food & Industrial Projects

Bright Annealed Polished Sanitary Tubing ASTM A270
Available in 316L Stainless Steel
Stamped with Heat Lot Number
Manufactured in accordance with 3A Standards for sanitary line process requirements

Whether you’re building a homebrew setup, upgrading a food cart, or fabricating industrial fixtures, Eagel’s 1 1/2" OD seamless stainless steel tubing delivers the durability, hygiene, and versatility you need. Available in 304 (general use) and 316 (marine/chemical-resistant) grades, this tubing is engineered for projects where strength, cleanability, and long-term reliability are non-negotiable.

5 Features That Make Eagel’s Tubing a Must-Have

1. Seamless Construction – Stronger, Cleaner, Longer-Lasting

No weak welds to crack or trap bacteria! Eagel’s tubing is seamless (ASTM A269 certified), meaning it’s stronger under pressure and easier to sanitize—perfect for food-grade applications (brewery lines, kitchen equipment) or high-stress projects (trailer frames, tool racks).

2. 304 vs. 316: Pick Your Grade for Your Environment

304 Stainless Steel: Ideal for indoor/outdoor use (gardens, furniture, RV upgrades) – resists rain, humidity, and light oils.

316 Stainless Steel: Molybdenum-enriched for harsh environments (saltwater docks, chemical labs, poolside fixtures) – 50% more corrosion-resistant than 304.

3. 1 1/2" OD – The Sweet Spot for Versatility

1.5-inch outer diameter (OD) balances size and strength: thick enough for structural support (pergolas, workbenches) but compact enough for tight spaces (lab equipment, tabletop brew systems).

4. Sanitary-Grade Finish for Food & Pharma

Electropolished surface (Ra ≤15 µin) eliminates crevices, making it easy to clean and compliant with 3-A, FDA, and NSF standards. Perfect for:

Homebrew beer/wine transfer lines

Food cart steam tables or condiment dispensers

Lab-grade fluid systems (no residue buildup).

5. Easy to Cut, Bend & Weld – No Pro Tools Required

Cut with a hacksaw, bend with a manual tube bender, or weld with a MIG/TIG setup (use 308L/316L filler wire). Pre-polished finish means no sanding—just measure, cut, and build.

The pressures shown in the table above are calculated using Barlow's Formula and the following properties:
• material: 304
• yield strength (PSI): 30,000
• tensile strength (PSI): 75,000
Working Pressure = ¼ of Burst Pressure, these calculate from -20°F to 100°F.
