17mm Tubing | McMaster-Carr

Connect this pipe to standard-wall plastic pipe fittings for a variety of residential and commercial low-pressure plumbing and water supply applications. It’s made of PVC, which has good corrosion resistance. Pipe meets NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for drinking water. It also meets ASTM D1784 and ASTM D1785 specifications and testing requirements for material quality. Connect this pipe to unthreaded female socket-connect fittings using a PVC primer and cement (also known as solvent weld).

Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Low-Carbon Steel Round Tubes

Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. It's widely fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength, such as fixture clamps, mounting plates, and spacers.

Ultra-High-Temperature Quartz Glass Tubes

Color: Clear
Max. Temperature: 2000° F
Fabrication: Annealed

Blistering temperatures won’t melt these quartz tubes, and rapid temperature shifts won’t cause them to crack. Even tougher than borosilicate, they can be used in furnaces and ovens heated up to 2000° F. These highly pure tubes are often used in laboratories because they won’t leach impurities into samples or contaminate chemical reactions. Quartz tubes are optically clear and have excellent UV transmission, making them ideal for UV purification systems.
