What should you know before you import steel



　　Before you import steel, there are some thing you need to know.

　　First, what’s the purpose of these steel pipes. You want to use the cargo as building material for construction, or for transportation, such as gas, natural gas, petroleum of other usage. For different usage need different kinds of steel pipe.

　　Second, you should know some general kinds of steel pipe. Based on technique, there are two kinds of steel pipe, one is seamless steel pipe, the other is welded steel pipe. We can tell the difference literally. Seamless is the one without weld seam, and welded steel pipe is the one with one or multi-welded seams. But you must aware that there are two kind of seamless steel pipes.There are some factories who made fake seamless, which I mean, they used welded steel pipe, and then polish the welding beam, to make the welded steel pipe looks like seamless steel pipe, there is no impact on performance, but the cost for the fake one is lower than real seamless steel pipe. Although the fake seamless may can’t tell visually, but UT test can let the seam show on result.


　　It’s best if you can have some investment on your supplier’s raw material price. Only when you know the market well can you buy the exact steel pipe with best price. Tianjin Xinyue Steel Group is a trust-worthy steel pipe exporter.

SMLS steel pipe for Tanzania Gas pipeline project

图片
Project location: Tanzania Product：SMLS steel pipe Specification：168.3mm*14.27mm*SDR Standard and material：API 5L X52N PSL2 Application: Gas pipeline project In the last week of September, we received a new inquiry from regular customer who stated that it would take 4 weeks for delivery, including anti-corrosion. We learned that the fast delivery is most important point for this order. Xinyue people responded the fastest. Due to this order is for X52N PSL2 G high-grade seamless pipes, the stock quantity cannot meet the quantity of the entire order. With the strong resource integration ability of Xinyue, we found the production schedule of the steel pipe factory within 3 days and quickly organized new production. The customer arranges full process supervision from end customers, contractor customers, intermediate customers, and third parties from raw materials to the factory. During the supervision process of steel pipe production, they all witness the online UT test, Hydrostatic test, ...

Treatment method of steel pipe welding slag inclusion

What is welding slag inclusion? Welded pipe slag inclusions are slag that remains inside the weld. Welding slag inclusions are generally divided into two categories: The first category is metal slag inclusions. The second category is non-metallic slag, which refers to the slag remaining in the weld after welding, including electrode coating or flux, sulfide, oxide and nitride. According to its formation, it can be divided into point-like slag inclusions, linear slag inclusions, chain-like slag inclusions and dense slag inclusions. Slag inclusions will reduce the plasticity and toughness of steel pipe welds, and slag inclusions with sharp corners will cause stress concentration at the tip, and the tip will develop into a crack source, especially in welds with a large tendency to air quenching. Under the action of stress on the steel pipe, cracks will first appear at the slag inclusions in the weld and develop along the way, resulting in a decrease in strength and cracking of the weld. T...
