Causes and Treatment Methods of Cracking for Seamless Hydraulic Tubes

Background introduction

Seamless steel pipes are commonly used in industrial production. They are characterized by high pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. However, in the process of using them as hydraulic pipes, they are sometimes flattened and cracked, which will bring great safety risks and economic losses to production.

Causes of flattening and cracking of seamless hydraulic tubes

1. Quality problems in the manufacturing process

During the manufacturing process of seamless hydraulic pipes, if the raw materials are improperly selected or the processing technology is not standardized, it will cause internal defects in the pipes, thereby affecting the endurance and toughness of the pipes. During use, once subjected to a large external force, it is easy to flatten and crack.

2. Overload problems during use

If the seamless hydraulic pipe is in use, if the pipe is not fully supported during use, the weight of the pipe will be unevenly shared, and some pipes will be overstressed. The force they bear exceeds their limit, which will cause problems such as pipe deformation and rupture.

3. Incorrect operation during installation

During the installation of seamless hydraulic pipes, if the operation is improper, such as the bolts are not tightened, the clamps are not aligned, etc., it is easy to cause flattening, cracking and other problems; or during the construction process, if the seamless pipes are not protected, external force impact or deformation will occur, causing the seamless pipes to flatten and crack.

4. Pipeline aging

Seamless pipes used for a long time may age, lose their original strength, and be overwhelmed. When they are under pressure, they will flatten and crack.

Treatment methods for flattening and cracking of seamless hydraulic pipes

1. Check internal defects of the pipes

Once problems such as flattening and cracking of seamless hydraulic pipes occur, first check whether there are defects inside the pipes. If so, they need to be repaired or replaced according to standard requirements.

2. Adopt appropriate pipe support measures

During the use of the pipes, we should pay attention to regularly check whether the pipes are deformed, aged or in other bad conditions, and repair and replace them in time. At the same time, in order to avoid overloading of the pipes during use, during the laying of the pipes, we should pay attention to strengthening the support of the pipes to ensure that the pipes can share the load-bearing capacity and ensure the smooth operation of the pipes.

3. Correctly install the pipeline

When installing seamless hydraulic pipes, you need to follow the correct operating steps to ensure that there are no errors in the installation links such as tightening the bolts and aligning the clamps.

4. Increase the thickness of the pipe wall

For some pipes that need to withstand greater pressure during operation, the wall thickness can be increased when selecting seamless hydraulic pipes (of course, it must meet the standard requirements) to improve its endurance and toughness, thereby reducing the probability of problems such as flattening and cracking.

5. Pay attention to avoid pipe deformation and external force impact during construction

Construction and operation personnel should pay attention to avoid violent impact and deformation of the pipe. When the pipe needs to be bent, professional bending treatment should be carried out to avoid excessive stress affecting the strength of the pipe.

6. Replace aging pipes

For aging pipes, replace them as soon as possible to ensure the safety and reliability of industrial production.

The above are the causes of the flattening and cracking problems of seamless hydraulic pipes and their specific treatment methods. In general, seamless hydraulic pipes need to be selected, manufactured, installed and maintained in strict accordance with standard requirements during use to ensure their safe and reliable operation.

Summary

In industrial production, seamless steel pipes are very important conveying pipelines. During use, if the pipe is flattened or cracked, timely measures must be taken to solve it. By strengthening the support and maintenance of the pipe, and paying attention to avoiding pipe deformation and external force impact during construction, the risk of pipe flattening and cracking can be effectively reduced, and the reliability and safety of industrial production can be guaranteed.
