Product Description
The 5 Inch TP316 Food Grade Stainless Steel Pipe Drain is a specialized drainage component designed exclusively for food-grade environments, where hygiene, safety, and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable. Unlike standard pipe drains, it is crafted from TP316 stainless steel—a high-performance alloy renowned for its resistance to acidic, saline, and food-based contaminants. The 5 inch diameter ensures efficient liquid flow, while the food grade certification guarantees compliance with global health regulations (e.g., FDA, EU Food Safety Standards). This drain is engineered to prevent bacterial growth, simplify cleaning, and withstand the rigorous demands of food processing facilities, making it a critical component for maintaining operational hygiene and safety.

As a food grade pipe drain, it meets the strictest health standards for contact with food products and food-processing fluids. The TP316 stainless steel material is non-toxic, non-reactive, and does not leach harmful substances into drainage liquids—essential for avoiding cross-contamination in food facilities.
TP316 stainless steel stands out for its resistance to corrosion from acidic foods (e.g., tomatoes, citrus), saline solutions (e.g., brines for curing), and cleaning chemicals (e.g., sanitizers). This resistance ensures the drain remains intact and hygienic for years, even in harsh food-processing conditions.
The 5 inch diameter provides ample capacity for fast liquid removal, minimizing the risk of standing water (a major source of bacterial growth). Its smooth internal surface reduces residue buildup, allowing fluids to flow freely and preventing clogs that could disrupt production.
Designed with user-friendliness in mind, the drain features a straightforward assembly process that integrates seamlessly with existing food-processing drainage systems. Its smooth exterior and interior surfaces simplify cleaning—staff can wipe or rinse the drain quickly, reducing downtime for maintenance and ensuring consistent hygiene.
This drain is tailored to food-related industries and applications where hygiene and efficiency are paramount:
Food Processing Plants: Used in facilities producing meat, poultry, seafood, fruits, or vegetables to drain wash water, sanitizing solutions, and food byproducts.
Beverage Facilities: Ideal for breweries, wineries, and soft drink plants to remove excess liquids (e.g., rinsing water, spillages) without contaminating production lines.
Commercial Kitchens: Suitable for large restaurants, catering services, and institutional kitchens (e.g., schools, hospitals) to handle high-volume drainage while meeting health codes.
Dairy Facilities: Resists corrosion from milk, yogurt, and cheese byproducts, making it a reliable choice for dairy processing and packaging areas.
Material: TP316 stainless steel (food-grade certified, corrosion-resistant to acids, salts, and sanitizers).
Type: Food Grade Pipe Drain (compliant with FDA, EU 10/2011, and other global food safety standards).
Size: 5 inch diameter (optimized for high-volume liquid flow and clog prevention).
Interior Design: Smooth, polished internal surface to minimize residue buildup and facilitate easy cleaning.
Structural Integrity: Reinforced walls to withstand heavy-duty use (e.g., frequent cleaning, accidental impacts in busy facilities).
Sealing Feature: Compatible with food-grade gaskets to ensure leak-proof connections, preventing fluid seepage into facility floors.
Yes. TP316 stainless steel resists damage from most food-safe sanitizers (e.g., chlorine, peracetic acid) and cleaning agents. Always confirm compatibility with your specific chemical’s concentration to maintain long-term performance.
Absolutely. The TP316 stainless steel material remains durable in low temperatures (e.g., freezers, cold storage rooms for meat or seafood) and does not become brittle or prone to cracking—ideal for cold-chain food processing.
No. Its smooth interior and exterior surfaces can be cleaned with standard food-industry tools (e.g., soft brushes, pressure sprayers) and food-safe cleaners. Avoid abrasive tools (e.g., steel wool) to prevent scratching the surface (which could trap bacteria).
Yes. The TP316 stainless steel resists outdoor elements like rain and humidity, and its food-grade design ensures it remains safe for outdoor use. For coastal areas (with salt air), regular rinsing with fresh water is recommended to enhance corrosion protection.
