equal length tubular manifold material
 

What type of materials are you guys using to fab up a equal length manifold? It seems like ppl have different opinion on what type. If you have done this give me some advice or suggestion to what you think seems appropriate for this type of setup. I work at a industrial plant and probably get some for free with different size and shape pipings ;)

So from what I've read 304 or 321. This setup is gonna be for my h22. Planning on building it during winter and getting it ready by spring. Thanks. :)

I used 304L on my girlfriends H22 manifold.

Mcmaster also sells 316 too but its a tad bit more.

nice abaz, what size pipings are you using on your lady's manifold? Is it 2"?

Re:equal length tubular manifold material
 

1 1/2, anything bigger would be pointless ;)

I'm using schedule 40 mild steel

IMO, if you pick a material, either mild steel or stainless, try to keep the flange material the same as the pipe material. What I mean is make sure you get stainless flanges if your using stainless pipe.

Where do you by the flanges from, and what kind of welder would suit something of this nature, making your own manifold and little custom work here and there.

very good question...(im serious)

and this is gonna sound dumb, but when you say 40 mild steel, what do you mean by that. 40gauge mild steel or....
(again, im serious)
