,ASTM F2181 Compliant Precision Steel Tube
,ASTM A269 Compliant Stainless Steel Tubing
Medical Stainless Steel Tubing (Small Diameter) for Medical Devices
Material
This product is a precision stainless steel small-diameter tubing designed specifically for medical devices. It is manufactured from medical-grade stainless steels such as 304/304L, 316/316L, and 17-7PH using cold-drawing or seamless production methods. The process ensures ultra-smooth surfaces, excellent dimensional accuracy, high structural integrity, and full biocompatibility.

Our Advantages
1. Tight Tolerances & Straightness
Our production achieves extremely precise OD, ID, and wall thickness control, with tolerances up to ±0.01 mm, meeting demanding medical device requirements such as minimally invasive instruments and catheter systems.
2. Medical-Grade Material Control
All stainless steel materials are fully certified, traceable, and compliant with medical manufacturing standards. Each batch undergoes strict inspection to ensure consistency and purity.
3. Superior Surface Cleanliness
Through precision drawing and electropolishing, tubing surfaces maintain minimal contamination and extremely low roughness, essential for medical fluid systems and surgical tools.
4. Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities
We can produce ultra-small inside diameters (as small as 0.13 mm) and ultra-thin walls using cold-drawing and plug-drawing technologies.
5. Full Customization for Medical OEMs
Custom lengths, bending, coiling, flaring, and end-forming are available. Outer diameters can be produced up to 20 mm for special medical assemblies.
6. Compliance with Medical Quality Systems
Production aligns with ISO 13485 requirements, ensuring full documentation, traceability, and process control suitable for medical device manufacturing.
