What is 304 stainless steel commonly used for in exhaust systems?

304 stainless steel is frequently used in exhaust fabrication due to its good resistance to corrosion and heat. This makes it a reliable material for components that are exposed to exhaust gases and varying weather conditions.

What does the 16-gauge thickness mean for this tubing?

A 16-gauge wall thickness indicates a moderate level of strength and durability for the tubing. It's substantial enough for most custom exhaust builds and repairs without being excessively heavy.

Can this tubing be welded?

Yes, 304 stainless steel is generally weldable using common methods like TIG or MIG welding. Proper preparation and technique are recommended for best results.

About this part

Product Details

This 16-gauge 304 stainless steel tubing measures 1.75 inches in diameter and is 48 inches long. The 304 stainless steel is a well-known choice for exhaust fabrication because it offers good corrosion resistance and durability, making it suitable for the high-heat environment of an exhaust system.

This tubing is often used by fabricators and DIYers when building custom exhaust components, headers, or modifying existing systems. Its 1.75-inch diameter is a common size for many performance exhaust applications, and the 16-gauge wall thickness provides a solid balance between strength and weight for fabrication projects.
