Core Advantages of Steel Pipes
Excellent Mechanical Properties
High Strength and Compressive Strength: Steel pipes are made of high-strength steel, with compressive strength reaching over 300 MPa, 5-10 times that of ordinary plastic pipes. In building structures and bridge engineering, it can significantly reduce material usage. For example, for a 50-meter span steel structure truss, using steel pipes can reduce weight by about 60% compared to concrete beams.
Excellent Impact Resistance: Elongation exceeds 25%, and it maintains good toughness even at -40℃, suitable for oil and gas pipelines in polar and high-altitude regions.
Multifunctional Processing Characteristics
Precise Forming Capability: Complex spatial shapes can be achieved through cold bending and hot forming processes, with a minimum bending radius of 4 times the pipe diameter, meeting the special needs of building curtain walls and artistic shapes.
Efficient Connection Technology: Supports various methods such as welding, flange connection, and clamp connection. The strength of welded joints can reach more than 95% of the base material, ensuring zero leakage in the pipeline system.
Environmental Adaptability
Corrosion Resistance Solutions: Through galvanizing and plastic coating surface treatments, it can be used stably for more than 20 years in a medium with pH=1-14. Special alloy steel pipes can resist chloride ion corrosion and are suitable for marine engineering.
Wide Temperature Range Service: Operating temperature range -196℃ to 800℃, meeting the needs of LNG ultra-low temperature transportation and high-temperature steam pipelines.
Life-Cycle Economy
High Material Utilization Rate: The forming rate of seamless steel pipes reaches 85%, and welded steel pipes reach 95%, better than cast iron pipes (60-70%).
Recyclable Value: The scrap steel recycling rate reaches 100%, and the regeneration energy consumption is only 25% of the original steel material, in line with the concept of a circular economy.
