Tubing

Ariel provides 304 / 304L stainless steel tubing, ASTM A213/A269/A511, 1/4 inch O.D. with 0.035 wall and Swagelok zinc plated steel fittings.  0.065 wall tubing is used on higher pressure applications. On larger frames where welded pipe is required for either the frame oil pump suction pipe (JGC:D/4 and larger) or the oil filter to galley pipe (JGZ:U/2 and larger) this pipe is carbon steel with carbon steel fittings and flanges.
 
316 Stainless steel tubing and 316 Swagelok fittings are available in lieu of the above for sour gas or corrosive applications.  The stainless steel tubing and fittings option includes the oil system tubing and fittings.  A second option is available for larger frames (JGC:D/4 and larger) to provide the frame oil pump suction pipe in stainless steel.  Items maintained in carbon steel despite these options include the frame suction strainer and the oil galley pipe, both internal to the crankcase and below the normal oil level.
 
Refer to the Ariel Pricebook for these options.
