How to prevent steel pipe from rusting

  As we all know that steel pipe is widely used in homes and constructions as railings, or guardrails for different purposes. There are various kinds of steel pipe, like API steel pipe , or American Petroleum Institute steel pipe. Like other steel products, the steel pipe will rust after exposure to moisture for long time. So, to prevent steel pipe from rust, some measures should be taken, like painting the surface with an exterior paint that seals out moisture. Follow me to get more details.   First of all, prepare things you will need, like cleaner, rags, mineral spirits, primer, rustproof exterior paint, 200-grit sandpaper. Then clean the pipe thoroughly to remove grease, dirt, grime and salt deposits. Clean the pipe by using a heavy-duty cleaner and rags. Then use mineral spirits and rag to clean it again to remove remaining grease left on the pipe.   Second, if the steel pipe has a sheeny surface that may affect the adhesion, you are advised to rough sand it. Rough the steel p...

Application Of Casing Pipe In Drilling Operation

  The casings pipe used in drilling, the joints they use, are chosen to be a trapezoidal thread, plus the concept of a torsion-resistant shoulder, so that it can transfer a very large turn when in use. Moreover, it is possible to generate a larger torque than a normal ssaw steel pipe, which ensures a very good seal and can meet the needs and skill requirements of the casing used in the drilling surface.   Now, the international oil industry is constantly developing and perfecting, and the new skills of this casing are constantly being implemented. This skill enables the drilling and the casing to be drilled during the drilling operation. These two different processes are combined into one, so that the drilling of the drill pipe can be saved during drilling. The cost of use can also greatly shorten the production cycle of the well construction, simplify the production structure of all the drilling rigs, reduce the occurrence of the incident, and greatly reduce the cost. Therefore, it ...

Welded Steel Pipe and Flammable Vapors

  When using steel pipe tools, we might as well avoid frequent contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, flush with plenty of water should not last long since if irritation persists, welded steel pipe might be eroded. The beveled pipe end helps spread the solvent easily as the welded steel pipe is joined to the fitting. By doing so, all burrs should be removed from the inside as well as the outside, of the pipe ends with the help of steel pipe tools. Special pipe tools can be used quickly and efficiently along with wrenches. The special woven nylon straps are extra strong and are specially treated for slip resistance so they can provide gripping power for turning steel pipe tools. This can be achieved without scratching or deforming the pipe as long as we follow the precautionary statement of welded steel pipe.   What is more, we may use the pipe system with caution due to the welding torches at construction sites. In those locations, welded steel pipe is being installed and s...

The Obvious Benefits of Welded Steel Pipe

  If you ever take a look at the steel pipe production process, you will find out that molybdenum increases the resistance of welded steel pipe to both local and general corrosion. This is because molybdenum and tungsten can protect the welded pipes from eroding. For instance, when welded steel pipe is used in austenitic alloys, the application must be balanced with austenite stabilizers in order to maintain the pipe structure. At the same time, some other elements are added to welded steel pipe so as to improve high temperature strength. What is more, as experts point out, in the steel pipe production process, the use of nitrogen will help to increase strength and enhance resistance to welded steel pipe corrosion.   Another commonly seen metal copper can also increase the general corrosion resistance in steel pipe production process. Thus welded steel pipe can be less harmed by acids, which is good agreement with the scaling theory in which production starts to decline exponentiall...

Importance of correct filling of welded steel tubes with metal

  When welded steel pipe is in the process of welding, there is a big potential threat which is called hot cracking that occurs immediately upon completion of the weld. Because of its larger grain structure, this material is particularly susceptible to the defect. Right filler metal, as well as proper heat input and post-weld cooling, is vital to cracking prevention and corrosion resistance during the welding process.   Welded steel pipe should be matched with right filler metals based on their chemical and mechanical features. Luckily, it is easier for this kind pipe to make this match than many other materials. The grade of welded steel pipe that will be used for application can be affected by the intended service condition, and the grade of material has a great influence on the filler metal selection. For example, it is better for welded steel pipe with 304L to choose filler metal with American Welding Society, but 316 welded steel pipes should be matched with a 316L filler metal...
