A certain part of industries puts forward special requirements for materials from which equipment and equipment are manufactured. These include food production. The use of structural parts from ordinary steels that may be corroded is prohibited in it. The best option for the manufacture of structures in enterprises that produce food is sheet, varietal rental and stainless steel pipes of various sizes.
The main types and features of stainless pipes
pipe products made of stainless steel may differ in the profile and brand of steel. like simple steel pipes, they can be:
- round;
- square;
- rectangular;
- oval.
The choice of stainless pipe by profile depends on the scope of their application and the tasks that they will perform. Thus, the pipe products of the round section are used mainly for the installation of pipelines for the transportation of components and substances that show chemical activity in contact with carbon steel. Profile products, as a rule, are used as structural elements for manufacturing: frames, stands, supporting racks, etc.
common stainless stains for pipes
domestic industry is gradually moving away from previously adopted stals brands and switches to the AISI international standard. Consider the most running stainless pipes of the brand.
Aisi 201
General purpose steel with high mechanical characteristics. It lends itself well to plastic deformation, deep stamping, hoods, bending and welding.
Aisi 304
, unlike the above, the brand is reduced by a reduced carbon content to 0.08%. The hanged nickel content allows you to make welded stainless pipes from such steel. The temperature regime of operation should not exceed 925 ° C with constant exposure.
aisi 316
Steel with the addition of molybdenum and a number of alloying additives that betray an additional resistance to aggressive media stainless pipes. Scope of use - production production or high probability of contact with acids or their pairs.
