What are cryogenic tubes made of?

Cryogenic tubes are mainly made of the following materials:

Stainless steel

Stainless steel is a corrosion-resistant, high-temperature-resistant, high-strength material, it can still maintain good mechanical properties in a low-temperature environment, so it is widely used in the manufacture of low-temperature pipelines.

Low-temperature high-strength steel

This steel uses carbon monomanganese as the main material, and a small amount of nickel-chromium and molybdenum-vanadium are added to improve the low-temperature toughness and strength of the steel. This material not only has high strength and high temperature resistance, but also is a strong and tough material, which can be used in various engineering spherical tanks and low-temperature pressure vessels.

Low-carbon aluminium calming steel

This steel uses silicon-manganese as the main component, adding the right amount of aluminum and fine grains to improve the toughness of the steel and improve the aging performance. It has good low-temperature toughness and is suitable for manufacturing cryogenic pipes.

Aluminum alloys:

Aluminum alloys are also commonly used in the manufacture of containers and pipes in low-temperature environments.
In addition, depending on the specific application scenario and needs, cryogenic tubes may also be made of other materials, such as polyethylene, for the manufacture of storage tanks, pipes, etc. at low temperatures.

In general, the choice of material for cryogenic tubing depends on the specific application needs and environmental conditions. When selecting a material, it is necessary to consider its low-temperature toughness, strength, corrosion resistance and other mechanical properties. For more specific information, it is advisable to consult the relevant materials manual or consult a materials expert.
