Ordering Your Tubing
Tubing is generally ordered to outside diameter and wall thickness, and is inventoried as Eagle Service Center Stock. Although tubing has three dimensions (O.D., I.D. and wall thickness) only two may be specified with tolerances; the third is theoretical. If inside diameter is the more important dimension for you, tubing can be specially produced by our mill to I.D. and wall, or to O.D. and I.D. dimensions.
Tolerances in any tube are applicable only to two cross-
sectional dimensions. Thus, if outside diameter and wall
thickness are specified, the inside diameter may not
necessarily conform to published tolerances.

Get tubing cut to exact lengths
Our facilities enable us to cut and deburr any diameter tubing in quantities from 1 piece to 100,000 pieces or more. . . from lengths of 0.040” and longer. . . with a tolerance of ± .005 as standard on diameters of less than one inch. Closer tolerances are certainly possible. Talk to us!

Grades of Stainless Steel
Grades are important depending on your application. One grade may be better than others for certain environments and uses.

Finish of Tubing
Most stainless tubes are produced with a bright silvery finish, although in some cases a “pickled” or dull pewter fisish is produced. Most of Eagle Stainless finishes are of the “Bright” variety, it is always suggested to specify the expected finish.
