Test method for defects in seamless steel tubes

  As a seamless steel pipe supplier, Prime Steel Pipe has the most comprehensive methods to test seamless steel pipe defects. Next, Prime Steel Pipe will share that for you.   1. Generally we use magnetic particle testing or soak detection to test appearance defects such as crack, folding, heavy skin, hair grain, pinhole. For ferromagnetic material, magnetic powder assay should be adopted preferentially, because it has higher flexibility of detection, for non-ferromagnetic material, such as stainless seamless steel pipe, soak test is used.   2. For steel pipe end defects, when obligate excision allowance is fewer, for the structural reasons of detection installation, the two ends sometimes can not get useful testing, which is the most likely to crack or other defects existing sites. If there are latent crack points, the welding heat may also lead to crack propagation. Thus, after butt we should also pay attention to the detection of will surely area of seamless steel pipe, and dul...

Seamless steel tube defect test

  Generally, seamless steel pipe defects are crack, fold, double skin, hairline, pinhole, etc..   When both ends of the reserved resection margin less, due to the structural reasons of the detection device, both ends of the head and sometimes the lack of effective testing, the end is most likely there are cracks or other defects in the site. End there is a potential crack tendency, the installation of the weld heat affected may also be potential crack propagation. Therefore, it should be noted that the detection of a certain region of the welded seamless steel pipe, the timely detection of defective expansion of the pipe ends.   Magnetic particle testing, penetrant testing can be effectively found that the surface crack, fold, double skin, hairline, pinhole surface defects. Ferromagnetic material, should give priority to the use of magnetic particle testing method, because it has a high detection sensitivity; non-ferromagnetic material such as stainless steel seamless pipe penetra...

What are the advantages and disadvantages of spiral steel tube?

  At present, spiral steel pipe is widely used in our life. What are the advantages and disadvantages of spiral steel pipe?   Spiral steel pipe is a kind of spiral steel pipe which is formed by spiral bending of strip or coil plate and welded by double-sided submerged arc automatic welding for inner and outer seams. It can be widely used in water, electricity and chemical industry for the following reasons:   1. Easy to adjust. As long as the forming angle is changed, steel pipes of various calibers can be produced with coils of the same width.   2. Because it is formed by continuous bending, the length of helical tube is not limited and can be determined at will.   3. The spiral shape of weld seam distributes evenly around the whole spiral pipe, so the spiral pipe has high dimensional accuracy and strong strength.   4. Easy to change size, suitable for small batch, multi-variety spiral tube production.   The weld seam of the spiral steel pipe is longer than the weld seam o...

ERW steel tube and seamless steel tube billet quality difference

  Tube billet is the key raw material in manufacturing process, is the solid round bar of steel used to produce many pipe products.    ERW steel pipe is manufactured by cold forming the steel coil into a round cylindrical pipe. Current passes between the two edges of the steel to heat the steel to a point at which the edges are able to connect together to form a bond using the actual welding process. ERW is normally used to transport liquid, such as petrol and gas, playing a significant role in the world line pipe transporting area.   Seamless steel pipe (also called SMLS) refers to a hollow steel pipe having no seam around. Due to its unique feature of strength and anti-bending, seamless pipe is widely used in construction, oil refining and chemical industries.   The ERW pipe tube billet is made of hot-rolled steel strip with cold rolling process while the seamless pipe tube billet is produced in hot rolling condition. The situation where seamless pipe tube billet is produced h...

Cooling method of carbon steel pipe

  For certain special purpose steel pipe, in order to ensure the requirements of the organization of the state and physical and mechanical properties for certain special purposes, there must be a certain way of cooling and the cooling system.

Detailed explanation of common annealing process

  Common annealing processes are:   1, fully annealed. It is used to refine the coarse superheated structure of medium and low carbon steel which has poor mechanical properties after casting, forging and welding. The workpiece is heated to a temperature of 30 to 50°C above the temperature at which all of the ferrite is transformed into austenite, and is kept for a period of time, then slowly cooled with the furnace, the austenite is transformed again during the cooling process, so that the microstructure of the steel is thinned.   2, spheroidizing annealing. It is used to reduce the high hardness of tool steel and bearing steel after forging. The workpiece is heated to a temperature of 20 to 40°C above the temperature at which the steel begins to form austenite, and is slowly cooled after the heat preservation. During the cooling process, the lamellar cementite in the pearlite becomes spherical, thereby lowering the hardness.   3, isothermal annealing. It is used to reduce the hi...

LSAW steel tube surface damage form

Boiler tube hardness

   Boiler tube hardness is one very important factor to determine the quality of high pressure boiler tubes.   First, it must be considered to detect the mechanical properties of hardness high pressure boiler tubes, because it is the relationship between the performance and quality of deformation, punching, cutting and other processing problems. So first of its hardness testing should detect its mechanical properties. Detection methods generally tensile test and hardness test. Tensile test, that is, to the high-pressure boiler tube sample preparation, but also in a tensile testing machine will stretch until the specimen breaks, so you can measure the tensile strength of the high-pressure boiler tubes, yield strength, elongation after fracture and reduction. Tensile tests in the metallic material is often carried out detecting means, is not easy for many hardness test, tensile test must be carried out. There are several hardness test method: like scarification, pressed into law, powe...

Difference between precision steel tube and seamless steel tube

  1. The main features of seamless steel pipe are welding without seam and can bear great pressure. The products can be made from rough casts or cold drawn parts.   2.Precision steel pipes appear just in recent years, and there are strict tolerance and roughness between the inner hole and the outer wall size.   Cold drawn precision steel pipe features: 1). Have a smaller diameter. 2). Can be made in small quantities due to its high precision. 3). Finished cold drawn products have high precision and good surface quality. 4). The cross section of the steel pipe is more complicated. 5). The steel pipe has superior performance and its metal is relatively dense.   Hot-rolled precision steel pipes are made from continuous casting round billets or roughed slabs which are heated by walking beam furnace and then put into rough mill after high-pressure water descaling; rough materials are sent into finishing mill after cutting head and tail; we adopt the implementation of computer-control...

Properties of square steel tubes

  The performance of square steel tube   1. The analysis of plasticity of square tube   Plasticity refers to the plastic deformation(permanent deformation) of metal material under the action of the load, which can not be damaged.   2. The analysis of hardness of square tube   Hardness is a measure of softness and hardness of metal materials.
