316 Regular Wall Stainless Steel Hypodermic Tubing for Medical Devices
316 stainless steel hypodermic tubing is precision small-diameter tubing available in a regular wall thickness for medical and high-corrosion environments. Regular wall thickness provides structural strength while maintaining a controlled internal diameter for precision applications.
316 stainless steel differs from 304 through the addition of molybdenum, which enhances corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride-rich or aggressive environments. This makes 316SS a preferred material for implantable and long-term exposure applications.

Hypodermic tubing is known as an effective component for applications requiring strength, uniformity and corrosion resistance. It can be used in air, water, oil, natural gas and chemical circuits. 316 applies particularly for processing equipment in the oil, chemical, food, paper, medical and pharmaceutical industries. This tubing can be incorporated into any standard liquid or gas circuit using our hypodermic tubing adaptor ferrules. While Component Supply provides some information for possible applications for hypodermic tubing, there are simply too many possibilities for a comprehensive description. Therefore, as you consider prospective applications in your industry, please contact one of our representatives all of whom are equipped to assist researchers and product designers in choosing the best products for their specific applications.
Component Supply stocks production quantities of hypodermic tubing in the sizes indicated on the chart below in both 30-inch and 60-inch lengths. In addition, we offer custom fabrication, which includes the cutting, bending, beveling, cleaning and deburring of this tubing. Consistent with our commitment to research and development, we keep order minimums low for both standard lengths and fabricated parts. Material certificates are available upon request, free of charge.
