Stainless steel has a unique corrosion resistance, it can react with oxidants, forming a thin layer of dense oxide film, to prevent further occurrence of oxidation reaction. For other types of metal pipe, there are almost no passivation functions, one of which is the main reason of stainless steel pipe fittings material corrosion resistance than ordinary metal pipe.
Stainless steel pipe fittings were recognized as health materials, widely used in food processing pipeline, including the pharmaceutical industry, brewing, beverage. Stainless steel pipe material with excellent performance, effectively reduce the transportation cost, scale, no node in the long-term transportation process smooth inner wall, and delivery of low energy consumption, is by far the lowest cost of transporting pipe material.
A stainless steel pipe fittings, classification and Application
1, stainless steel pipe fittings classification
A stainless steel pipe belongs to a pipe, which is made of stainless steel so called stainless steel pipe fittings, it includes: stainless steel elbow, stainless steel three, stainless steel four, stainless steel of different diameter pipe, stainless steel pipe cap,
According to the connection method can be respectively inserted type stainless steel pipe fittings, stainless steel pipe, stainless steel pipe fittings threaded flange and welding of stainless steel pipe four categories for bearing. Stainless steel elbow pipe fitting for a corner; flange for the pipe and pipe interconnected parts, connected Yu Guanduan, stainless steel three way pipe for three tubes together place; stainless steel four way pipe for four tubes together place; for two different pipe diameters connected place of stainless steel pipes of different diameter.
2, the use of stainless steel pipe fittings
Stainless steel pipe fittings can use paint or oxidation resistant metal (for example, zinc, nickel and chromium) plating to ensure the carbon steel surface, but, as everyone knows, this protection is only a thin film. If the layer is destroyed, the following steel began to rust, the resistance of air, steam, water and other corrosive medium and weak acid, alkali, salt and other chemical etching medium corrosion of steel.
The largest is the place where the pressure vessel and chemical aspects of stainless steel pipe fittings for. Oil refining equipment factory in general have a large demand. Other aspects, such as chemical industry, food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries can be applied. The main are widely used in petroleum, chemical, medical, food, light industry, mechanical instruments and other industrial pipes and machinery structure parts.
Characteristics of two, stainless steel pipe fittings
1, life
Stainless steel pipe has the longest service life. From abroad situation analysis of stainless steel pipe stainless steel use, the service life of up to 100 years, at least 70 years, and as long as the life of the building.
2, corrosion resistance
One of the most prominent advantages of stainless steel pipes is its excellent corrosion resistance, in a variety of pipe is the best. Because stainless steel passivation effects can occur with the oxidant, forming a layer of tough dense chromium oxide protective film on the surface of Dr2O3, further effectively prevent the oxidation reaction. And other metal pipes, galvanized pipes, such as copper passivation ability is very small, this is galvanized pipe copper pipe corrosion resistance is far less than the key reason of stainless steel pipe.
Stainless steel does not happen like that uniform corrosion of carbon steel, without the need for protective coating use; using stainless steel pipe, chemical composition of the water has no limit, because the corrosion resistance of stainless steels is very good in both PH and hardness of various oxygen content, temperature, water; stainless steel pipe can withstand very high velocity, even greater than the velocity of 40 m / second, remained very low corrosion rate, less than 0.003 mm / year, especially suitable for supplying water for high building.
3, heat resistance and insulation
The thermal conductivity of the stainless steel tube is a copper tube rate 1/25, is a common steel pipe 1/4, especially suitable for hot water. Water industry the most commonly used stainless steel is 304 and 316 stainless steel, which can meet the vast majority of water treatment and transportation conditions.
4, strength
The strength of the material determines the water pipes are strong collision resistance, safe and reliable. Safety and reliability is the most important requirement in building water supply. Under the external force impact, little possibility of stainless steel pipe Water Leakage. Water supply system working pressure of tall buildings is generally greater than 0.6Mpa; the higher demands on the pipe pressure. Thin wall stainless steel pipe with excellent mechanical properties, can withstand high water pressure, up to 10Mpa or more, especially suitable for supplying water for high building.
Three, how to distinguish true and false of stainless steel pipe fittings
1, compare the teeth and teeth from the front project:
2, the standard eye teeth, tooth spacing uniform front sharp and bright.
3, handle: tooth front sliding, the depth of processing standard, core wall is uniform, smooth flow of parts.
4, the factory by mechanical processing, clip, debris without surface.
5, low carbon content, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, strong toughness, anti pressure ability.
6, rough, teeth front teeth distance disadvantage and thick, not standardized, teeth when the front there is damage, easy to Water Leakage
7, the thread can not see dark gloss, feel bad,
8, the core wall of crooked, uneven thickness, fluid after blockage.
9, rough, no surface treatment, easy to be oxidized
10, high carbon content, not resistant to rot, poor toughness, anti tensile strength weak.
Installation techniques four, stainless steel pipe
Installation technique of stainless steel tubes are mainly in the following 9 matters needing attention:
1, stainless steel material lifting, can not be in direct contact with other metals, padded wooden or rubber plate and other non-metallic materials.
2, pipe cutting is not allowed to cut with ordinary grinding wheel piece, should use special stainless steel grinding wheel or plasma cutting.
3, stainless steel pipe welding seam should be positioning inside argon protection.
4, the arc and arc, arc back arc welding method used, should fill the crater. The arc must be completed in the groove, the prohibition of arcing in the pipeline
