DIN 17456 Seamless Circular Stainless Steel Tubes for General Purpose

DIN 17456 Seamless Circular Stainless Steel Tubes for General Purpose

General Purpose Seamless Circular Stainless Steel Tubes

DIN17456 standard for general purpose welded circular tubes made of stainless ferritic, martensitic or austensitic or austenitic steels as given in table 1. Tubes of this kind may be used in construction, or in the food, pharmaceutical and automobile industries, as well as for domestic installations or decorative purposes.
