Solutions for High-frequency Pipe Crack

    High-frequency pipes have many problems.The pipe crack is one of them.We will introduce the problem and its solution to you.

    (1) Characteristics

    Water penetration crack: crack width < 0.4 mm. The crack has caking traces. Spray with the shape of mist or leak when testing water pressure.

    Micro-crack crack: outer surface has visible microgrooves, and the inner surface is in good condition. There is no leakage phenomenon when testing pressure but it is crazed if being crushed or cold bending.

    (2) Causes

    1) Low welding temperature (insufficient heat output, and fast welding speed).

    2) Roller bearing loss or small strip cause insufficient extrusion force.

    3) The sixth and seventh piece of guide roller blade are damaged, and crush the strip steel edge.

    4) Strip steel edges have inclusions and its state of edge is unstable.

    5) Weld reverse and uneven heating temperature of two edges.

    6) The roll adjustment is improper causing the edge drawing.

    7) Core rod is being taken away or its burning loss loses efficacy.

    8) Two belt sides present pointed peach shape, and quantity of heat focuses on the inner surface. Heat temperature is too high.

    (3) Methods of prevention

    1) The choice of welding speed and high frequency heat output should be appropriate.

    2) Change the guide ring in time if damaged, and it is not allowed to work in the state of breakdown.

    3) Check the strip edge condition before feeding, and it shall not be used if there is any breakage, interlayer, etc.

    4) Check frequently whether the core rod position is often appropriate or not, whether break away or not and whether drainage systems are in good condition or not.

    5) Correctly adjust molding parts in order to prevent edge drawing and pipe seam reverse.

    6) Choose reasonably welding speed and strive to seek stability.

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...

ERW Steel Pipe Deliver to Argentina for oil and gas pipeline

图片
Project location：Argentina Product：ERW Steel Pipe Standard and material：API 5L PSL2 46th GR.X60M Specifications： OD: 457.2mm WT: 9.52mm Lenght:12M Application：oil and gas pipeline In the steel industry, customer demands vary, but quality and delivery time are always the most critical factors. Recently, Xinyue successfully provided a high-quality ERW pipe solution for a customer, and the entire process took only half a month, perfectly demonstrating our ability to respond quickly and execute efficiently. Although the customer’s order quantity was small, the steel grade requirements for the pipes were very high, and the supplier had to be listed in the client’s approved supplier directory. Facing such strict requirements, Xinyue mobilized all available resources and actively engaged with major suppliers. Ultimately, we successfully sourced BaoSteel’s inventory, which perfectly met the steel grade and quality requirements, and ensured on-time delivery. From receiving the inquiry to finali...
