5 reasons why you should buy stainless steel pneumatic equipment

API Pneumatic UK is one of the few manufacturers of stainless steel pneumatic cylinders and valves in the UK. We understand the benefits of stainless steel pneumatics, especially the value of investing in pneumatic products as a long-term solution for certain industries. In this blog, API Pneumatic UK takes you through the top 5 benefits of stainless steel pneumatics and why you should consider buying stainless steel pneumatic equipment.

Benefits of stainless steel pneumatics

1. All stainless steel pneumatic equipment manufactured by API is designed from the highest grade 316 stainless steel. This ensures that all of our pneumatic equipment exhibits exemplary standards of hygiene and durability. As a manufacturer of stainless steel pneumatic cylinders, valves and modular airline equipment, we pride ourselves on the top quality design of our products and their reliable performance.

2. One of the main benefits of stainless steel pneumatic components, more specifically 316 stainless steel pneumatics, is their extremely high levels of corrosion resistance. This is a vital requirement for many aggressive industries, where the product will come into contact with an array of chemicals and extreme environments.

Stainless steel pneumatics excel in extreme environments. They are an investment that give you the assurance of many years’ worth of reliable operation.

3. Our stainless steel pneumatic products aren’t limited to cylinders. We have a wide array of stainless steel valves, including control valves, ancillary valves and spool valves. Why not have a fully corrosion resistant solution? Extend the life of your cylinder by pairing it with stainless steel valves and mountings. At API, we want to give you the most cost-effective, reliable and corrosion resistant solution possible for your application.

4. Do you work in the oil and gas industry? A major benefit of stainless steel pneumatics is their ability to withstand the pressures of extreme industries. In the oil and gas applications, confidence in your pneumatics is essential. As such, ATEX versions are available from API for the ultimate protection in potentially explosive environments.

5. A vital requirement of the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries is hygiene. Our 316 stainless steel pneumatics conform to FDA 21 CFR 178, making them FDA compliant and therefore safe to use in these specific industries, as well as for SIP/CIP and steam cleaning processes.
