Material advantage of stainless steel AISI 316 (A4)

AISI 316 stainless steel (also known as A4 or V4A) contains molybdenum and therefore offers significantly higher corrosion resistance than standard stainless steel. This makes the pipe joint particularly suitable for:

• Continuous saltwater contact
• Aggressive marine environments
• Long-term outdoor applications without maintenance
• Professional boat and yacht equipment
• Areas with frequent movement and stress

With eye - Versatile mounting option

Integrated eye: The pipe joint features an integrated eye, offering versatile mounting options. Ideal for connecting to other fittings or fixing points.

Eye width 7 mm: The eye width offers sufficient space for the mounting of fittings or connecting elements.

Aug-Ø 6 mm: Standard eye diameter for secure and stable connections with bolts or screws.
