Electropolished Tubing

Electropolished Tubing

Electropolished tubing is made from stainless steel materials such as 304/304L and 316/316L, and undergoes precision cold drawing and electropolishing treatment, resulting in a high degree of surface smoothness. Its excellent corrosion resistance, cleanliness, and mechanical stability make it a key material in battery manufacturing. Electropolished (EP) tubing is suitable for the new energy lithium-ion battery industry, including applications such as electrode material transportation, electrolyte transportation, ultra-clean gas systems, and high-purity fluid pipelines.

Product Introduction

Products Description

 

Our Advantages 

 

1. Ultra-High Cleanliness

  • Our electropolished tubing is manufactured using a precision cold drawing process, resulting in a smooth surface. Through bright annealing and advanced electropolishing processes, the surface roughness is controlled to Ra ≤ 0.25 μm, and for high-purity systems, a surface roughness of Ra ≤ 0.15 μm is available.
  • The tubing is sealed with polyethylene or PTFE end caps and individually plastic-wrapped, with vacuum sealing available if necessary, ensuring high cleanliness during transportation and storage.

 

2. Corrosion Resistance

  • Our tubing is made from high-quality stainless steel, resistant to battery electrolytes, organic solvents, and chloride-containing environments.
  • The materials used undergo rigorous chemical composition testing to ensure compliance with JIS G3459 standards. The tubing also undergoes intergranular corrosion testing to ensure its durability.
     

3. Compliance

  • Our products comply with SEMI F19-0304, ASME BPE-2012, ASTM B912-02, and other standards.
  • Material, performance, and cleanliness test reports from international third-party authoritative testing agencies such as SGS, BV, and TUV are available.
     

4. Customization Capabilities

  • We support customization of ultra-thin walls (0.3mm), special wall thicknesses, non-standard outer diameters, and integrated processing of various connection types such as compression fittings, welded fittings, and quick-connect fittings.
  • We can customize multi-specification mixed packaging, exclusive labeling, and vacuum packaging according to customer needs.
     

5. High Dimensional Accuracy

  • Our electropolished tubing undergoes cold drawing and straightening treatment, resulting in a straightness of ≤0.1mm/m, outer diameter tolerance of ±0.02mm, and wall thickness tolerance of ±0.01mm, requiring no secondary processing.
  • The tubing undergoes rigorous dimensional inspection to ensure compliance with JIS G3459/ASTM A213 and other standards, and can be directly used in mainstream lithium-ion battery production equipment without secondary processing.

FAQ

 

Q: What surface roughness (Ra) can be achieved with battery-grade EP tubing?

A: The EP tubing we typically supply includes:
For standard lithium-ion battery applications, Ra ≤ 0.25 μm
For high-purity or critical process lines, Ra ≤ 0.15 μm

Q: Which grades of stainless steel are recommended for lithium-ion battery manufacturing?

A: The most commonly used grades are 304L and 316L. Low-sulfur, high-purity 316L stainless steel is recommended for international battery OEMs.

Q: Is your tubing suitable for orbital welding in battery production lines?

A: Yes. Our EP tubing features tight dimensional tolerances, excellent roundness, and a clean inner surface, making it ideal for orbital welding.
