──May 24 , 2022Classification and precautions of stainless steel elbows

  The chemical composition of stainless steel elbows can prevent rust and corrosion on the surface of elbows for a long time. In pipeline systems, elbows are pipe fittings used to change the direction of pipes. The three most commonly used ones are45°and90°180°According to the engineering requirements, it also includes other abnormal corners, such as60°Wait.

  Elbows are made of materials such as cast iron, malleable cast iron, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, alloy steel and plastics. The pipe connection methods include: electrofusion connection, direct welding (the most commonly used method), flange connection, threaded connection, hot-melt connection, socket connection, etc. According to the production process, they can be classified into welded elbows, cast elbows, pressed elbows, forged elbows, hot-pressed elbows, pushed elbows, clamped elbows, etc. Other names:90°Elbows, right-angle elbows, etc.

  Production according to standards can be transformed into:

  1.According to the manufacturing standards, stainless steel elbows can be classified into American standards, electrical standards, German standards, Marine standards, Chinese standards, Japanese standards, water standards, Russian standards, etc.

  2.According to the production method, stainless steel elbows can be classified into stamping, extrusion, forging, casting, etc.

  90°Stainless steel elbows are mainly used for the connection of pipe bending. They are one of the connection joints used in pipe installation and are used to connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters for rotation90°.

  The characteristics of stainless steel: Its most prominent advantage is its corrosion resistance. Stainless steel must be used in highly corrosive environments, such as the chemical industry and the papermaking industry. Of course, the cost is relatively high. Its strength and toughness indicators are the best among all steels.

  Precautions for using stainless steel elbows

  1.When installing, usually it can be installed at any position on the pipeline, but it needs to be sealed to prevent flushing leakage and affect the normal operation of the pipeline. The stainless steel elbow can be directly installed on the pipeline according to the connection method or usage position.

  2.When using ball valves, globe valves and gate valves with stainless steel elbows, they are not allowed to regulate the flow rate, so they can only be fully opened or closed.

  3.Regular inspections should be carried out with the aim of long-term preservation of stainless steel elbows. Elbows should be neatly stored in a well-ventilated and dry indoor place. The exposed surfaces should be kept clean, and if there is any dirt, it should be removed in time. Stacking and open-air storage are strictly prohibited. Always keep the stainless steel elbows dry and well-ventilated, keep them clean and tidy, and store them according to the correct storage methods.

When using stainless steel elbows, many things need to be noted. Users need to use and maintain them in the accurate way and use them in specific ways.
