Galvanized pipe for water belongs to the seam welded steel pipe. Welded steel pipe refers to the steel belt or steel plate bending deformation shapes such as round, square and then welded and jointed on the surface of steel pipe. Welded steel pipe is made of billet is steel plate or strip. Bought from the market pipes, both ends will be color-coded, which means that water uses. Water pipes on blue, red spray hot water pipes, water pipes under the inkjet green, gas pipes and gas meter spray satin, heating pipes whitewashed.  Which galvanized water pipes when the pipe have been banned, because the traditional galvanized pipe rust, corrosive, easy to scale, easy to breed microorganisms produce secondary pollution, the use of a few years, a large amount of rust inside the tube, out of the yellow water not only pollute the ware, and mixed with non-smooth inner wall of the breeding of bacteria, corrosion caused by high levels of heavy metals in water, serious harm to human health.

In general, simple chromium nickel, and chromium manganese nitrogen austenitic stainless steel pipe not only used for rust and oxidation resistance of medium (such as nitric acid, etc.) conditions, the use of molybdenum austenitic stainless steel as the important alloy elements added to the further expansion of the use of steel, the effect of molybdenum is mainly in the reducing medium steel (than – H2SO4, H3PO4, and some organic acid and urea environment) corrosion resistance, and improve the pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion resistance and other properties of the steel. 1, molybdenum impact to the organization Chromium and molybdenum are the formation and stability of ferrite and expand in ferrite phase element, molybdenum and the ability of ferritic chromium. Also promotes molybdenum austenitic stainless steel pipe, intermetallic phase in the sigma phase, for example, kappa, predominate and Laves equal precipitation, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of steel will produce adverse effect, plasticity, toughness, farewell is for keep the austenitic stainless steel pipe single austenitic organization, along with the increase of the content of molybdenum in steel austenite formed elements (such as nickel, nitrogen and manganese) levels will increase, in order to keep the steel ferrite and austenite balance between form elements. 2, molybdenum impact on performance Oxidation of the molybdenum in the austenitic stainless steel pipe was not significant, so when cr-ni austenitic stainless steel pipe in single austenitic organization and no intermetallic precipitation, the effect of molybdenum on the mechanical properties at room temperature is not big, but along with the increase of the content of molybdenum steel high temperature strength increase, such as persistent, creep properties are improved, thus containing molybdenum stainless steel tubes are often in high temperature applications, however, the addition of molybdenum make high temperature deformation resistance of steel increases, and often there is a small amount of delta ferrite in steel and molybdenum stainless steel of workability than does not contain molybdenum steel for the poor, and molybdenum content is higher, the hot working performance is bad, in addition, the molybdenum austenitic stainless steel easy one million kappa (sigma) precipitation, predominate in this will significantly worse plasticity and toughness of steel, therefore in molybdenum austenitic stainless steel production, equipment manufacturing and application in the process, must pay attention to prevent the formation of intermetallic phase in steel. Molybdenum in the austenitic stainless steel pipe, the main role is to improve the steel tube of the reducing medium corrosion resistance and resistance to corrosion, crevice corrosion resistance and other performance (304 stainless steel round) respectively on chrome molybdenum nickel austenitic stainless steel in nitric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, phosphoric acid and urea, etc. The effect of medium corrosion resistance, it can be seen that, in addition to oxidizing medium HNO3 in place, the role of molybdenum are beneficial and therefore molybdenum austenitic stainless steel pipe generally don’t day nitric acid corrosion resistance, unless in the nitric acid containing F -, Cl – plasma, while the effect of alloying elements molybdenum reducing medium resistance of austenitic stainless steel tubes, the reason of surface corrosion and crevice corrosion is not entirely clear, but a lot of experimental has pointed out that corrosion resistant effect of molybdenum is only contains high amount of chromium in steel is effective, molybdenum mainly strengthening of chromium in steel corrosion effect, at the same time, the corrosion inhibition of molybdenum formed after acid salt have been experimentally. In resistance to stress corrosion of high concentration chloride solution, although molybdenum alloy elements on the reducing medium resistance of austenitic stainless steel of the resistance to pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion is not entirely clear, but a lot of experimental has pointed out that the effect of molybdenum only when contains high amount of chromium in steel is valid, molybdenum mainly strengthening of chromium in steel corrosion effect, at the same time, molybdenum salt molybdate formed after the cushion has been experimentally. Due to the more common cr-ni austenitic stainless steel pipe in water medium containing trace chlorine and oxygen saturation, the stress corrosion and pitting corrosion as origin, therefore molybdenum nickel chromium molybdenum austenitic stainless steel pipe due to pitting corrosion resistance is higher, so in practice often than does not contain molybdenum steel tube has better resistance to chloride stress corrosion performance.

The welded seamless wrought steel pipe confirms to the standardization of dimensions ASME B36.10M-2004 standards for high or low temperature. The wrought pipe distinguished from steel tube, is applied for pipeline and piping system with tubular products of dimensions. The pipe DN300 has outside diameters numerically larger than corresponding sizes. Oppositely, the tube outside diameter is numerically identical to the size number for all sizes. Welded Seamless Wrought Steel Pipe The pipe size is identified by the nominal pipe size. So the manufacturers of seamless wrought steel pipe are based on the standardized outside diameter. The outside diameter is originally selected so that the pipes would have an inside diameter approximately equal to the normal size with a standard OD and wall thickness. Though there is little relation between standard thickness OD and nominal size, the pipe manufacturer proceeds on the basis of an OD corresponding to the nominal size. ASME B36.10M-2004 Standard covers the standardization of dimensions of welded and seamless wrought steel pipe for high or low temperatures and pressures. The word pipe is used, as distinguished from tube, to apply to tubular products of dimensions commonly used for pipeline and piping systems. Pipe NPS 12 (DN 300) and smaller have outside diameters numerically larger than their corresponding sizes. In contrast, the outside diameters of tubes are numerically identical to the size number for all sizes. The size of all pipe is identified by the nominal pipe size.The manufacture of pipe NPS 1/8 (DN 6) to NPS 12 (DN 300), inclusive, is based on a standardized outside diameter (OD). This OD was originally selected so that pipe with a standard OD and having a wall thickness that was typical of the period would have an inside diameter (ID) approximately equal to the nominal size. Although there is no such relation between the existing standard thickness — OD and nominal size — these nominal sizes and standard ODs continue in use as “standard”, The manufacture of pipe NPS 14 (DN 350) and larger proceeds on the basis of an OD corresponding to the nominal size.

The strip is into the welded pipe unit and by the multi-channel roll rolling, gradually rolled strip steel, formed with an opening gap round tube, adjust the amount of reduction squeeze rollers, so that the weld gap control for carbon steel pipe in 1 ~ 3mm, and to weld ends flush. If the gap is too large and will result in reduced proximity effect, eddy current lack of heat, poor weld joint between grain yield incomplete fusion or cracking. If the gap is too small, causing the proximity effect increases, excessive soldering heat, causing the weld burning; or weld by extrusion, rolling to form a pit, affecting the quality of the weld surface . 1, welding temperature control, soldering temperature is mainly affected by the impact of high-frequency eddy current heating power, high-frequency eddy current frequency heating power is mainly affected by the impact of thermal power and eddy current excitation frequency is proportional to the square; while current excitation frequency but also by the excitation voltage, current and capacitance, inductance. excitation frequency of the excitation circuit of the capacitance and inductance is inversely proportional to the square root, or the voltage and current proportional to the square, as long as the change in the circuit capacitance, inductance, or voltage and current can change the excitation frequency size , so as to control the welding temperature. For low carbon steel , welding temperature control in the 1250 ~ 1460 ℃, can meet the pipe wall thickness 3 ~ 5mm penetration requirements. In addition, the soldering temperature can be achieved by adjusting the welding speed. When the heat input is low, the heated soldering temperatures reach the edge of the weld metal structure remains solid, forming incomplete fusion or penetration; when the input is hot enough, over the edge of the heated seam welding temperature, resulting in burnt or droplet formation of the weld Cave. 2, the extrusion pressure control, both edges of the heating tube to the welding temperature in the extrusion press roll, a common mutual penetration of the metal grains, crystals, and ultimately form a strong weld. If the pressing force is too small, a common number of crystals is small, the weld metal strength decreases, the force will produce cracks; if the extrusion pressure is excessive, the molten weld metal is extruded, not only reduces the the weld strength, and will generate a lot of internal and external burrs , and even cause defects such as seam welding ride. 3, high-frequency induction loop position control High-frequency induction loop should be as close to the squeeze roller position. If the nip roll farther away from the induction coil, the effective heating time is longer, wider heat affected zone, weld strength decreases; contrary, insufficient heating of the weld edge, after extrusion molding failure. 4, the impedance is a magnet or a group of dedicated pipe, the impedance is a cross-sectional area is usually not less than pipe inner cross-sectional area of ​​70%, its role is the induction coil, tube weld edge to form an electromagnetic induction magnet circuit, resulting in the proximity effect, eddy current weld heat concentrated in the tube near the edge, the edge of the tube is heated to soldering temperature. Used impedance dragging a wire within the tube, fixed to its central position should be relatively close to the center of the press roller. Boot, because tube fast motion, the impedance is affected by tube wall friction loss is large, require frequent replacement. 5, the weld after welding and extrusion welding scars will produce, which need to be cleared. Removal method is on the rack cutter, pipe by the rapid movement will burr gelling. Pipe inside burr is generally not cleared.

In strong oxidizing nitric acid, compared with high alloy steel containing molybdenum, low corrosion resistance. In hydrochloric acid, the use of 904L stainless steel pipe is limited to a lower concentration of 1-2%. In this concentration range. The corrosion resistance of 904L stainless steel pipe is better than the conventional stainless steel. 904L stainless steel pipe has a high resistance to pitting corrosion. In chloride solution, the corrosion resistance is also very good. 904L stainless steel pipe with high nickel content, reduce the corrosion rate in the pit and crevice. When the ordinary austenitic stainless steel is more than 60 degrees Celsius, it may be sensitive to stress corrosion in a chloride rich environment. Due to the high nickel content, 904L stainless steel pipe in the chloride solution, concentrated hydroxide solution and the rich hydrogen sulfide environment, has a high resistance to stress corrosion cracking capacity. Because the 904L carbon content is very low (maximum 0.020%), there will be no carbide precipitation in the case of general heat treatment and welding. This eliminates the general heat treatment and the risk of intergranular corrosion after welding. As a result of the high chromium nickel molybdenum content, and added a copper element, so the 904L stainless steel pipe even in the reducing environment, such as sulfuric acid and formic acid can also be passive. The high nickel content also has a lower corrosion rate in the active state. In the 0~98% concentration range of pure sulfuric acid, the use of 904L temperature can be as high as 40 degrees celsius. The corrosion resistance of pure phosphoric acid is very good in the range of 0~85% concentration. In the industrial phosphoric acid produced by the wet process, the impurities have a strong influence on the corrosion resistance. In all kinds of phosphoric acid, the corrosion resistance of 904L stainless steel pipe is better than that of ordinary stainless steel pipe.

As different geological conditions, underground complex stress state, pulling, pressing, bending, torsional stress acting on the combined effect of the tube, which the casing itself, the quality of the higher requirements. Once the casing itself is damaged for some reason, could lead to the whole production wells, or even scrapped.

Galvanized coating has a number of characteristics that make it a well-suited corrosion protective coating for iron and steel products in most environments. Th excellent field performance of Galvanized coating results from its ability to form dense, adherent corrosion product films of corrosion considerably below that of ferrous materials (some 10 to 100 times slower depending upon the environment). While a fresh zinc surface is quite reactive when exposed to the atmosphere, a thin film of corrosion products develops rapidly, greatly reducing the rate of further corrosion. In addition to creating a barrier between steel and the environment, zinc also has the ability to cathodically protect the base metal. Zinc, which is anodic to iron and steel, will preferentially corrode and protect the iron or steel against rusting when the coating is damaged. Many different types of zinc and each has unique characteristics. These characteristics not only affect applicability but also the relative economics and expected service life.The method of processing, adhesion to the base metal, protection aff orded at corners, edges, and threads, hardness, coating density, and thickness can vary greatly among the diff erent coatings.This is practical aid discusses each of the major types of zinc coatings, applied by batch hot-dip galvanizing, continuous sheet galvanizing,electro galvanizing, zinc plating, mechanical plating, zinc spraying, and zinc painting, to help specialists assess and select zinc coatings for corrosion protection. After deciding to use a Galvanized coating for corrosion protection, some factors must be considered to ensure the proper coating is selected for the intended application and service environment. Obviously, zinc coating processes which are limited to small parts, and operations limited to continuous lines in steel mills (i.e. continuous galvanizing and electrogalvanizing) cannot be considered for the protective coating of structural steel members. Each Galvanized coating reviewed provides various degrees of corrosion protection. When selecting a coating, it is important to investigate the corrosiveness of the exposure environment to ensure the Galvanized coating selected will provide adequate service life for the cost.

How to improve the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel tube, wilsonpipeline pipe industry knowledge to provide the following for your reference: There are many method to improve corrosion resistance of stainless steel tube, such as surface coating a layer of corrosion resistant metal, coating nonmetal layer, electrochemical corrosion protection and change of environmental media, etc. But using the alloying method, improve the corrosion resistance of the material itself is one of the most effective measures to prevent the damage of corrosion, the method is as follows: (1) adding alloying elements, improve the electrode potential of the steel substrate, so as to improve the electrochemical corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe. General steel adding Cr, Ni, Si more elements can improve the electrode potential. Because Ni is short of, the amount of Si to join can make steel brittle, therefore, only improve the steel substrate electrode potential Cr is common elements. Cr can improve the electrode potential of steel, but it is not a linear relationship. Experiment proved that steel electrode potential with the increase of alloy elements, there is a quantitative change to qualitative change, follow the 1/8 rule. When the Cr content reaches a certain value when the 1/8 atoms (l / 8, 2/8, 2/8…) There will be a mutation, the electrode potential. As a result, almost all of the stainless steel, the Cr content are in 12. % (atomic) above, more than 11.7% (mass). (2) adding alloying elements to form a layer on the surface of the steel stable, complete with steel matrix solid membrane purification. To improve the ability of resistance to chemical corrosion of stainless steel tube. Such as Cr in steels, Si, Al alloy elements, such as surface of stainless steel tube to form a dense Cr2O3, SiO2, Al2O3, such as oxidation film, can improve the corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe. (3) adding alloying elements to make steel at room temperature can exist in single phase state, reduce the number of micro battery so as to improve the corrosion resistance of steel. Like to join a sufficient number of Cr or Cr – Ni, single-phase ferritic steel at room temperature to obtain or single phase austenite. (4) to join the elements such as Mo, Cu, improve the ability of corrosion resistance. (5) join Ti, Nb elements, such as elimination of Cr intergranular segregation, thus reduce the tendency to intergranular corrosion. (6) to join the Mn, N elements, such as single-phase austenitic organization instead of part of the Ni, at the same time can greatly improve the corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe in organic acids.

low temperature carbon steel pipe is medium carbon structural steel, cold steel plus low energy are good with good mechanical properties, and low prices, wide sources, so widely used. Its biggest weakness is the low hardenability, cross-sectional dimensions Japan is relatively high workpiece should not be used. Cold steel for low temperature operation, can withstand a certain low temperature impact. Low temperature quench pipe A3 + (30 ~ 50) ℃, in practice, is usually set to the upper limit. High quenching temperature to low temperature pipe heating speed, reduce surface oxidation, and can improve efficiency. The workpiece is uniform austenite, will require sufficient holding time. If the actual installed furnace capacity, would be appropriate to extend the holding time. Otherwise, there may be insufficient due to uneven heating caused by the hardness of the phenomenon. However, the holding time is too long, will also appear coarse grains, oxidation and decarbonization serious ills affecting quenching quality. We believe that such equipment is greater than the specified process documents furnace, the heating need to extend the holding time of 1/5. Because the low temperature steel hardenability is low, it should be large cooling rate of 10% salt solution. After the workpiece into the water, it should hardenability, but not chilled, if in cold salt water penetration, it is possible cracking of the workpiece, it is because when the workpiece is cooled to about 180 ℃, the rapid transformation of austenite horse s body tissue caused by excessive stress due. Therefore, when hardened steel rapid cooling to the low temperature region, it should take slow cooling method. As the water temperature is difficult to grasp, accountable experience to operate, when to stop dithering artifacts in the water, the water can be air-cooled (eg oil cooler can be better). In addition, the work should move into the water should not be static, should be in accordance with the geometry of the workpiece, as the rules of sport. Stationary cooling medium plus stationary workpiece, resulting in uneven hardness, stress uneven leaving large deformation of the workpiece, and even cracking. Cold steel pieces quenched hardness after quenching should reach HRC56 ~ 59, lower section of the possibility of some large, but not less than HRC48, otherwise, it shows the work has not been fully hardened tissues may occur even ferrite sorbitic Organizations, such organizations tempered, still retained in the matrix, which was not quenched purposes. Cryogenic tempering steel after quenching, the heating temperature is usually 560 ~ 600 ℃, hardness is HRC22 ~ 34. Because the goal is to get quenched mechanical properties, so the relatively wide range of hardness. But drawing hardness requirements, it is necessary to adjust by drawing tempering temperature to ensure hardness. For example, some cold steel shafts require high strength, hardness is high; while some gear, shaft parts with keyway, because after quenching but also for milling, insert processing, hardness requirements will be lower. About Tempering time, depending on the hardness and size of the piece, we think, depends on the hardness after tempering tempering temperature, tempering time with little to do, but must return through the general overall at the workpiece Tempering Time more than one hour.
