Medical Quality tubing is manufactured from T316L certified stainless steel in ID’s from .020″ to .500″ with ±.001″ ID tolerances or .500″ to 1.000″ ID with ±.0015″ ID tolerances. Available in thin walls, “MQ” tubing is welded and mandrel drawn to approximately 1/8 – 1/2 hard temper, depending on the size.
Ideal for applications requiring tighter than normal tolerances. Some temper is added for applications that require more rigidity, such as in medical instrumentation. This material typically offers better ID finishes than stock material which is ideal for instrumentation applications.
