What is the HFW steel pipe?

  It should be taken into account that the HFW pipe is a type of ERW pipe .   The high frequency welded steel pipe (HFW) is that ERW pipe produced with a welding current frequency equal to or greater than 70 kHZ. Through resistance to high frequency current welding, heat is generated in the contact objects, whereby the object surface is heated to the plastic state, then, with or without forging, to achieve a combination of steels. HFW is a solid resistance thermal energy. The high frequency current that passes through the metallic conductor will produce two peculiar effects, the skin effect and the proximity effect. The HFW process uses the skin effect to concentrate on the surface of the steel object and uses proximity effects to control the position and power of the high frequency electric current flow path. Since the speed is very high, the edge of the contacted plate can be heated and melted in a short time, then extruded through the coupling process.   Advantages of the HFW pi...

The difference between tubing and casing

  What is the difference between tubing and casing pipe? Where is the oil well separately? Is the casing pipe the one that is the outermost layer of the well? Let me help you answer the following:   Tubing and casing pipe are essential tools for oil exploration.   The tubing is a tube that is lowered into the casing of the well when the well is being produced normally. From the well, the oil flows through the oil pipe into the ground and enters the gathering process. In the coal mining well, the combination of oil pipe, sucker rod and deep well pump draws oil to the ground and enters the gathering process.   The casing is a pipe that is lowered into the well after the drilling is completed. The casing and the well wall are cement-sealed, and then the perforating gun is used to align the perforation of the target layer, so that the oil flows through the rock layer, the cement ring, and the casing into the well. At the bottom, enter the tubing and come to the ground. The main role ...

Thick-walled welded steel tubes

  The biggest difference between thick-walled pipe and thinwalled pipe is just as the name suggested. The difference is the thickness of the pipe. In general,thin-walled pipe is produced by cold drawn technology, while thickwalled pipe is by using the hot rolling technology to produce. We can use the unit of measure used to differentiate those two types of steel pipes. When the thick divided the diameter equal to 0.05, it is a watershed thick walled steel pipe. When the thick divided the diameter is less than 0.05, then it is a thin-walled steel pipe. In terms of the use of thin-walled steel pipe is for the pipeline, while the thick-walled steel pipe is used for hollow parts blank, pressure and the important pipeline use.   Thick-walled welded steel pipe is mainly used in water engineering, petrochemical industry, chemical industry, power industry, agricultural irrigation, urban construction.   - For Transport of liquids: water supply, drainage   - For Gas Transportation: gas, s...

Oil Casing Commonly Used Buckle Type

  The commonly used buckle types for oil casing pipes are divided into three types: EU, NU and New Vam.   These three types of buckles can be found in the tool shop. The EU and NU are difficult to distinguish from the appearance of the buckles. They are all triangular buckles, but they can be easily distinguished from the entire column.NU means no external thickening. New Vam is actually a trapezoidal buckle (the cross section is rectangular), but also without thickened, so it is easy to distinguish.   1. EU buckle is an external thickened tubing buckle type. Three EU-related piano logos will also be found during the process of knowing the buckle joints on the shop floor.   2. NU (Non-upset) has no external thickening, NU indicates that there is no outer thickened tubing oint. In addition to no external thickening and EU generally there is a difference is that NU is   generally 10 buckles per inch, EU is generally 8 buckles per inch. Where NUE means non-thickened end or end non...

Design Conditions of Spiral Pressure Pipeline

  On engineering, process operating parameters should not be used directly as a pressure pipeline design conditions, factors to consider process operating fluctuations, the impact of connected devices, environmental impact, etc., and on the basis of operating parameters of the process are given a certain amount as a design safety margin condition. Design conditions mentioned here mainly refers to the design pressure and design temperature.    SSAW steel pipe design pressure: when should not be less than the normal operating pressure under the most demanding conditions by the internal pressure (or external pressure) and temperature constituted.   The most severe conditions: is the lead pipe and piping components maximum wall thickness or the maximum nominal pressure rating conditions.   Design pressure determination: consider the medium hydrostatic pressure and other factors, the design pressure should generally be slightly higher than the maximum working pressure under the most ...

What are the disadvantages of welded area of spiral steel pipe?

  The causes and prevention methods of the stomata of the spiral steel pipe welds, the shortcomings of the spiral steel pipe weld zone are stomata, hot cracks, and undercuts. Spiral steel pipe weld porosity not only affects the fineness of the pipe weld, but also constitutes the leakage of the pipe, and will become the induction point of corrosion, severely reducing the weld strength and durability.   The elements of the weld hole are: moisture, dirt, scale and iron filings in the flux, welding composition and masking thickness, appearance quality of the steel plate, steel plate edge treatment, welding process and steel tube forming process. Flux composition. When welding contains proper amount of CaF2 and SiO2, it will reverberate and absorb a lot of H2. The HF which is highly stable and insoluble in liquid metal can then avoid the formation of hydrogen pores.   Bubbles. Bubbles occur mostly in the center of the bead. The main reason is that hydrogen is still hidden inside the wel...

Is stainless steel better than carbon steel?

  Steel is found in all kinds of products, from the aerospace industry to kitchen utensils. Such applications require a versatile material and the steel fits perfectly. Did you know that the word steel actually describes a complete family of metal alloys? Some of the most important iron alloys are stainless steel and carbon steel .   In the next article, we will talk about them and tell you what is your best option according to your needs.   Steel composition   Iron and carbon are constituents of steel. In general, steels with a higher carbon content are hard and fragile, while those with a lower content are ductile and resistant.   Simply put, the carbon composition in steel is not constant and varies depending on the type and degree to be achieved. For example, the carbon content of 0.2% to 1.2% by weight is common in this metal.   What makes stainless steel unique is its impeccable corrosion resistance, or in other words, the ability not to corrode or oxidize under normal ...

What is carbon steel?

  Carbon-containing steel as the main alloy element is called carbon steel . Actually, it receives this denomination due to the high amount of carbon in its composition.   The technical definition, although complex, is reduced to a simple restriction: true carbon steels have almost no alloy elements, so they are mainly made of iron and carbon.   The properties of this type of steel depend on the percentage of carbon it possesses. Based on the quantity, we can classify them into three categories:   Medium carbon steel   High carbon steel   Ultra high carbon steel   The composition of high carbon steel ranges from 0.3% to 1.7%. At first glance this doesn't seem like much, but adding even a tiny amount of carbon to the composition can make a huge difference.   For example, ultra-high carbon steel contains about 1% to 2% carbon. The high amount of this ingredient in steel allows it to withstand extreme temperatures. This is the reason why heat treatments can be carried ou...

What is the best grade of stainless steel for the food industry?

  The manufacturers of inputs or machinery for the food industry have very strict requirements that must be met to avoid product contamination. Each piece of metal of a specific stainless steel grade needs to be perfect to the smallest detail to ensure full compliance with food safety standards.   Many food manufacturers use trays of this metal in their food processing processes. However, what some might not realize is that not any type of stainless steel will work in this industry.   There are hundreds of different varieties of stainless steel on the market, each with its own unique combination of properties. This leaves the question: what is the best grade of stainless steel for the food industry?   The answer depends on the specific application for which the metal will be used. For example, a confectioner who makes chocolates will have very different performance needs than a processor that specializes in tomato sauces.   In the following article, we will mention two of the ...

Cathodic Protection of Oil Well Casing

  With the rapid development of the petroleum industry, the serious corrosion of oil well casings, buried pipelines, tank bottoms, especially oil well casings inside the oilfield has seriously affected the production, development, management and environment of the oilfield. Corrosion exists in the inner and outer walls of the oil and gas well casing, and the internal corrosion is serious.   In addition, in the well section where the inclination of the well varies greatly, the mechanical damage of the casing to the casing accelerates the corrosion perforation of the casing; the welding defects existing in the weld, the gap of the thread and the like are likely to cause differences in the electrochemical performance of the surface of the steel pipe. It also causes corrosion damage to be more serious. To solve the corrosion problem of the inner wall of the oil well casing, generally add a bactericide, a corrosion inhibitor, a mediation PH value, a closed oxygen barrier technology in the...
