[labnetwork] Stainless Steel Tubing

[Matthew Moneck]

Hi All,



We are having a very difficult time sourcing ¼” stainless steel tubing for
high purity process applications.  We are looking for electropolished 316L
stainless with an RA of 10 microinch or better.  Many vendors do not have
stock.  Apparently a lot of vendors have been sourcing this material from
South Korea, but they have reached their import limit for 2022.  As a
result, some vendors are stating tubing will not be available until 2023.
Others are saying December or some time in Q4.



Does anyone know of a potential vendor who may have stock?



Best Regards,


Matt
