What are the differences between the Series I and Series II of the stainless steel water pipes for
When it comes to stainless steel water pipes, everyone should be familiar with them. Especially as our country's economy becomes increasingly prosperous, most families have relatively good financial conditions. Therefore, when choosing home decoration materials, people pay more attention to safety and environmental protection rather than just caring about whether it is cost-effective, thus avoiding potential safety hazards. Moreover, when it comes to water pipes that affect the health of the entire family, people's choices are even more cautious. As a result, healthy and environmentally friendly stainless steel water pipes for home decoration have gained popularity and are included in the "top choice" series.
When many consumers purchase stainless steel water pipes, they will be asked by the merchants: Are you choosing the I series or the II series? It is believed that most people would be completely confused when hearing this. What is the I series? What is the II series? How should they be distinguished from each other?
The difference between the I series and the II series of stainless steel water pipes for home decoration lies in their different outer diameters, while the nominal diameter is the same.
The Stainless Steel Pipe Series I is part of the general series, which is the large-diameter series that we usually hear about. Most international standards use the Series I, such as ASME, ASNI, DIN, EN, etc. The Series II is the non-general series, which is the small-diameter series that we often hear about. It is generally the domestic general series. Consumers can refer to GB/T 28708-2012 for the selection of corresponding size specifications for seamless and welded steel pipes used in pipeline engineering.
In the actual application process, we should make the selection based on the on-site conditions and the requirements of the tender. Apart from a slight difference in size, there are almost no differences in the usage and installation methods between these two series.
