It should be noted that in the fields of construction and industry, high-quality steel that is resistant to mechanical loads and environmental factors is indispensable, and pipes are one of them. Among them, the most popular is round pipes, which are manufactured using steel (including alloys and carbon materials) and cast iron. Let's take a detailed look at the characteristics, usage characteristics, and advantages of this type of product.
Characteristics of circular tubes
A notable feature of these products is their circular cross-section, available in various sizes. The choice of size depends on the assigned task and the specific application of the pipeline. The most common type of manufacturing is carbon steel, which is durable and resistant to external influences.
The diameter of the model produced by the manufacturer is 15-100 millimeters, and sometimes the length can reach 7000 millimeters. The thickness of the structural wall is also important, with a maximum of over 12 millimeters. The thicker the wall, the stronger the pipeline; The selection of parameters depends on the specific situation of the application and the temperature of the internal and external environment.
These products can have a matte, polished, or mirrored surface. When grinding, use abrasives with different characteristics to eliminate unevenness and defects (the choice of particle size depends on the level of roughness). After grinding, polishing can be carried out using polishing paste and felt wheels. Sometimes chemical polishing techniques are used to form a smooth film on the surface by using an acidic solution. The electrolysis method involves using an electroplating bath with an electrolyte solution and placing the workpiece inside.
The metal surface is covered with a layer of zinc (using hot-dip galvanizing method, the workpiece is placed in a container containing heated zinc). The zinc layer provides reliable rust protection.
Applicable scope
Circular tubes have a wide range of applications. The exact use depends on the technical and production characteristics. The main areas of use include:
The oil and gas industry: This type of pipeline is an integral part of oil and gas pipelines. They transport valuable resources without changing their attributes.
Construction: A pipeline is a component of a building, ancillary building, or industrial structural framework; In addition, they are also sturdy and reliable support structures. Circular pipes are used in civil and industrial buildings, especially in frame building technology. With their help, you can not only build houses, but also pavilions, garages, and bathrooms.
Construction of water pipelines and steam delivery systems: This pipeline is suitable for hot and cold water and can be installed indoors or outdoors. In addition, these structures are also used to form sewage treatment systems.
Chemical industry: Stainless steel coatings can resist contact with acids, alcohols, and alkalis. That's why pipelines are used to transport various chemicals, including those with corrosive components.
Professional equipment construction, aviation, and automotive transportation. High quality pipelines have been successfully applied in mechanical engineering.
Manufacturing of instruments and development of various large-scale equipment.
In addition, certain types of external and internal decoration work. Small round pipes are suitable for making railings.
Design advantages
Stainless steel coated welded pipes are universal components that can be used in various fields, including construction and industrial sectors. Their widespread application benefits from numerous advantages.
High strength, including resistance to high pressure, pressure changes, and possible rupture. That's why these pipelines are suitable for laying public facilities and generate high pressure during operation.
Long service life. The average service life is 20-50 years, depending on the selected steel type, welding quality, and the presence of protective coatings.
Corrosion resistant process, therefore round pipes can be used under high humidity conditions. All of this is possible because the galvanized protective layer can prevent rust.
Resistance to deformation and linear expansion.
Has immunity to various chemical liquids.
Resistant to high temperature, negative temperature, and temperature changes. Therefore, the product can be used under different climatic conditions.
The structure can withstand both static and dynamic loads, which is crucial in the mechanical engineering and construction industries.
Manufacturers provide warranty for welding products, confirming their quality and durability.
Wide size range: able to choose the required length, diameter, and wall thickness according to your task.
So, metal pipes with circular cross-sections are the most commonly used products in the household, construction, and industrial sectors. It is important to select the design based on size and ensure that it complies with national regulations.
