The difference between Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve and Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve

There are many types of hoses, whether it is used in the kitchen or in the bathroom, there will be room for people to choose, especially in the bathroom, whether it is a Tinned Copper braided sleeve or a braided hose connected to an angle valve, each Each product has its own unique characteristics. However, its different advantages determine the different uses. For a long time, many people are not clear about the characteristics of Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve and Stainless Steel braided sleeve. Now I will introduce the difference between the two.

So what are the differences between tinned copper braided casing and braided Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve casing? Please see the following introduction
1. The composition of components is different
Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve hose: wire, inner tube, steel sleeve, core, gasket, nut
Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve: hex cap, body, spacer, plastic sleeve
2. The effect is different
Weaving Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve casing: it is mainly used to connect the corner valve at the water inlet with the basin faucet, kitchen faucet, vertical bathtub faucet, water heater, central air conditioner, and toilet to form a water supply channel or drain pipe
Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve: used for the transmission of high temperature liquid and gas. Such as the water inlet pipe of the water heater, the gas delivery pipe, the water inlet pipe of the faucet, etc. For areas with poor water quality, Tinned Copper Braided Sleeves can be preferred for the connecting pipe of the water heater, which will last longer.
3. The production method and performance are different
Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve hose: It is made of 6 strands of 304 stainless steel wire. The flexibility of the whole tube is relatively good, and the anti-riot effect is good. However, compared with the tinned copper braided casing, the diameter is smaller and the water flow is small.
Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve: the tube body is uneven, there is only one outer tube, no inner tube, the tube body is relatively hard, special attention should be paid when installing, it is best to choose vertical installation, and must not bend multiple times at the same place , to avoid water leakage and breakage.
4. Their respective advantages
The advantages of Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve: corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, suitable for heating pipes. Larger pipe diameter equals larger water flow.
Advantages of Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve casing: the internal connecting pipe and the gasket of the connecting part are made of EPDM high-quality rubber. Non-toxic, anti-aging, anti-ozone, anti-erosion, cold resistance, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, excellent sealing. Secondly, the price is cheap.
5. Their respective defects
The disadvantages of Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve casing are: the process is complicated, and the high temperature resistance is worse than that of tinned copper braided casing.
The disadvantage of the Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve is that it must be installed perpendicular to the joint, otherwise it will easily lead to water leakage. It is not easy to bend the Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve at the same position multiple times, otherwise the wall of the Tinned Copper Braided Sleeve will break. Secondly it is expensive.
Tinned Copper Braided Sleeves and braided Stainless Steel Braided Sleeves are two types of hoses that are essential for toilets, and their functions determine the different uses.
