Tube Cross

Stainless steel tube crosses are designed to create a four-way intersection within tube systems, allowing flow to be distributed to, or collected from, multiple directions at a single junction. With four outlets arranged at right angles, tube crosses provide a compact and efficient solution for complex tube layouts where several lines must connect at one point. Their welded construction offers strength, durability, and long-term reliability, making them suitable for process systems where consistent performance and structural integrity are essential.

This range of tube crosses is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel and supplied with a satin finish. Grade 316 stainless steel is widely recognised for its excellent resistance to corrosion, particularly in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, and chlorides. This makes these fittings well suited to hygienic applications, marine and coastal installations, and chemical processing systems where material performance is critical. The satin finish provides a smooth, clean, and uniform surface that is easy to maintain and visually appealing, making it a popular choice for food and beverage processing equipment, pharmaceutical installations, and architectural or exposed stainless steel tube work.

Sizes are supplied with a standard 1.6mm wall thickness, matching commonly used stainless steel tube dimensions for consistent fit-up and reliable welding. Stainless steel tube crosses are frequently used in food and beverage processing plants, pharmaceutical and laboratory systems, water treatment facilities, and general stainless tube fabrication. They are also commonly specified in custom-built equipment and bespoke installations where multiple branch connections are required in a compact footprint.

For applications requiring a strong, corrosion-resistant, and neatly finished four-way tube connection, 316 stainless steel tube crosses provide a proven, reliable, and industry-standard solution.
