AWWA C200 Steel Water Pipe

    Water pipeline AWWA C200 steel water pipe is widely used in the following fields/industries:

    Hydraulic power station, potable

    Water supply industry, irrigation penstock, Sewage disposal pipe line

    AWWA C200 standards covers butt-welded, straight-seam or spiral-seam steel pipe, 6 in. (150 mm) and larger, for transmission and distribution of water, including fabrication of pipe, requirements of welding operations, permissible variations of weight and dimensions, preparation of ends, fabrication of specials, inspection, and test procedures.

    Inspection

    All work performed and material furnished under this standard may be inspected by the purchaser, but such inspection shall not relieve the manufacturer of responsibility to furnish material and perform work in accordance with this standard.

    Quality assurance

    The manufacturer shall maintain a quality-assurance program to ensure that minimum standards are met. It shall include a certified welding inspector (AWS QC1) to verify that welders and welding procedures are qualified, procedures are being followed with limitation of testing, and quality-assurance functions are being implemented.

    Defects

    The finished pipe shall be free from unacceptable defects. Defects in seamless pipe or in the parent metal of welded pipe will be considered unacceptable when the depth of the defect is greater than 12.5% of the nominal wall thickness.

    The repair of defects will not be permitted if the depth of the defect exceeds 1/3 of the nominal wall thickness of the pipe and if the length of that portion of the defect in which the depth exceeds 12.5% is greater than 25% of the outside diameter of the pipe. Each length of repaired pipe shall be tested hydrostatically in accordance with standard requirements.

    Marketing

    A serial number or other identification shall be painted in a conspicuous location on each section of pipe and each special section.

The main reason for the porosity of submerged arc welding seam

 Submerged arc welding technology is the welding process of SSAW steel pipe and LSAW steel pipe. During the welding process, in addition to insufficient penetration, burn-through and poor formation caused by improper welding process parameters, there will also be pores, slag inclusions, cracks, etc. Defects. This article mainly introduces the main reasons and preventive measures for porosity in submerged arc welding seams. (1) In the process of steel rolling or hot stamping and coiling, the oxide scale formed or fallen off, as well as the positioning welding slag shell, the carbon arc gas created flying slag, etc., are trapped in the flux, which will also cause pores in the weld. Preventive measures: ①The oxide skin that falls off during the process of coiling and bending should be cleaned or blown off with compressed air before assembly and welding to prevent it from being caught in the assembly gap or falling into the groove. ②The surrounding of the welding site should be clean t...

Standard for Choosing Oil Casing Pipe Manufacturers

 　　There are many standards for selecting oil casing manufacturers, which can be divided into short-term standards and long-term standards according to the length of time. The short-term standards for selecting oil casing manufacturers mainly include product quality, price level, timely delivery and overall service level. 　　1. Product quality 　　The quality of the purchased oil casing meets the requirements of the purchasing unit is a condition that the purchasing unit must consider when purchasing the oil casing. Poor quality and low price casing products have lower procurement costs, but will lead to an increase in the total cost, but if the quality is too high, it will far exceed the production requirements, which is also a waste. Therefore, the quality requirements of the oil casing in the procurement The production needs of the enterprise must be consistent, and the requirements are too high or too low are not appropriate. 　　2. Lower cost 　　A lower purchase price is an importan...

How to distinguish between ERW steel tube and seamless steel tube?

　　Today, Great Steel Pipe will tell you how to distinguish the ERW steel pipe and seamless steel pipe. 　　 ERW Steel Pipe 　　ERW is a specific type of welding process that is used to produce welded steel pipe, such as ERW steel pipe. Seam welding is commonly used during the manufacturing of round, square and rectangular steel tubing. The steel strip is unwound from coils and side-trimmed to control width and condition the edges for welding. The strip then passes through a series of contoured rollers which cold-form the material into a circular (square or rectangular) shape. The edges are forced together under pressure as a butt joint and then welded by heating the material to temperatures above 2000° F. The flash weld that has formed is now removed from the outside diameter of the tube. Once the weld has been tested the tube then passes through a series of sizing rolls to attain its precise finished size, after which the tube is then straightened and cut to length. 　 　Seamless Ste...
