Product Introduction

Gnee Super Alloy (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. is one of the most professional manufacturers and suppliers of high-precision bright annealed (ba) gh4169 / 718 tubing in China. If you're going to wholesale high quality high-precision bright annealed (ba) gh4169 / 718 tubing made in China, welcome to get free sample from our factory. Good service and reasonable price are available.

 

Our Bright Annealed (BA) GH4169/718 tubing is the preferred choice for industries with extremely high cleanliness and precision requirements. Unlike standard tubing that requires acid pickling, our BA tubing undergoes heat treatment in a 100% controlled hydrogen atmosphere.

 

This advanced process prevents oxidation during annealing, resulting in a mirror-like finish (Ra < 0.4μm) on both the inner and outer diameters of the tubing. The final product is ultra-clean, scale-free tubing, eliminating the risk of particulate contamination in sensitive aerospace fuel lines or semiconductor gas delivery systems.

Why Choose Gnee Steel's GH4169 BA Tubing?

 

✅️Ultra-Clean Surface (Oxidation-Free): Hydrogen-protected annealing ensures zero oxidation or scaling. The tubing is ready for cleanroom applications upon delivery.

✅️Micro-Tolerances: We strictly control dimensions to within ±0.05mm tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit in high-pressure joints and rail welding.

✅️Enhanced Corrosion Resistance: The smooth, mirror-finish surface significantly reduces the effective surface area, preventing contaminant buildup and minimizing the risk of pitting corrosion.

✅️Superior Mechanical Properties: While achieving high surface quality, the tubing retains all the high-temperature strength and fatigue resistance of the GH4169 (Inconel 718) high-temperature alloy.

FAQ

 

Q: Can you provide BA tubes for semiconductor or cleanroom applications?
A: Yes, our BA GH4169 tubes are widely used in high-purity gas delivery. We provide additional ultra-sonic cleaning and specialized packaging to meet cleanroom standards.

 

Q: Does Bright Annealing affect the strength of Inconel 718?
A: Not at all. Bright Annealing is a thermal process that optimizes the grain structure for better ductility and surface finish while maintaining the alloy's core high-temperature mechanical properties.

 

Q: What is the maximum length for your high-precision BA tubes?
A: We provide straight lengths up to 6 meters, but for small diameter tubes, we can also supply them in seamless coils to minimize joints in long-distance fluid lines.

 

Q: How do you protect the surface during shipping?
A: Each BA tube is individually sleeved in plastic and packed in reinforced wooden crates or hard tubes to prevent any surface scratches or contamination during transit.
