Understanding SB-168, B 168, 5870
What It Is:
These standards and specifications work together to ensure a product that is both materially superior and hygienically sound.
- SB-168: This is the master specification for nickel alloy plates, dictating unique chemical compositions, including high levels of nickel and other elements like chromium and molybdenum.
- B 168: This standard governs the manufacturing process, surface finish (Ra), cleanliness, and testing required to produce a contamination-free final product.
- A Certified Combination: We start with fully certified SB-168 and B 168 materials to create a seamless tube that meets or exceeds all 5870 stainless steel requirements.
Why It Is Your Core Focus:
Our strict adherence to these standards promises a robust, reliable, and pure solution for your critical systems.
- It guarantees superior performance against moderately to highly corrosive media, where standard alloys might be inadequate, especially in sulfuric acid environments.
- It ensures an ultra-smooth, crevice-free internal surface that minimizes bio-burden and allows for effective, repeatable Clean-in-Place (CIP) cycles.
- This dual certification simplifies your validation process with fully traceable materials and comprehensive MTCs, essential for regulated industries.
