    Thanks for your input, SylvanLMP. On a cathodic/anodic chart 316 stainless(passive) is down close to the cathodic end while iron pipe and zinc (galvonized)is up close to the anodic end. This is why I was concerned.


    No problem and your very welcome.

    I used SS piping on food handling applications and some high pressure steam systems with great success.

    Have you considered other materials?

    Depending on temperature and pressure and applicatiions and local codes?

    If you like you can send me a private E mail and let me know how you make out GOOD LUCK
