First and foremost, Does anyone know if, cast, stamped or forged SS pipe joints are made simular to the steel ones made for boiler work ? As with steel they would be seamless weld bends of 45 or 90 degree as well as size reducers in 45 or 90 degree bends. The steel ones are not cheap as they are stamped or forged hot in high tonnage stampmills so I suppose if SS ones exist they would be fairly costly but who knows maybe they use such item building nuclear reactor cooling towers?
If such items do exist, what bad side effects would repeated heating and cooling of SS would there be if any? Thanks for any help.
