Stainless Steel Elbow
characteristic
Strong corrosion resistance (based on actual reports): able to resist corrosion from acids, alkalis, saltwater, etc., suitable for corrosive media environments, and extend the service life of pipeline systems.
High temperature resistance (based on actual reports) and high pressure: capable of withstanding high temperatures and pressures, used for high-temperature and high-pressure conditions such as steam transmission and chemical reactions.
Sanitary Anran: Grade stainless steel elbows meet hygiene standards, have odorless toxin detection, and will not contaminate the conveying medium. They are suitable for industries such as drinking water, food processing, and pharmaceuticals.
Good mechanical strength: Made of high-strength stainless steel, it can withstand high pressure and heavy loads, protecting the stability and safety of pipeline connections.
Good sealing performance: Adopting excellent sealing technology and structural design, the effect is excellent in avoiding medium leakage and preventing environmental pollution.
Beautiful and practical: The surface is smooth and not easy to rust, which not only improves the overall aesthetics of the system, but also reduces maintenance costs.
classification
Divided by angle: there are commonly used angles such as 45 °, 90 °, 180 °, as well as other unconventional angles such as 60 ° elbows.
According to the curvature radius, it can be divided into long radius elbows (curvature radius equal to 1.5 times the outer diameter of the pipe, i.e. R=1.5D) and short radius elbows (curvature radius equal to the outer diameter of the pipe, i.e. R=1.0D).
Divided by connection method: including direct welding, flange connection, threaded connection, socket connection, etc.
According to the production process, there are welded elbows, stamped elbows, cast elbows, etc.
Application industry
Petrochemical industry: used in chemical reactions, material transportation, and other processes. Due to its corrosion resistance (based on actual reports), it can work stably in harsh chemical environments.
Water treatment: In the water supply and sewage treatment system, it is confirmed that the water quality is not contaminated and the service life of the pipeline system is extended.
Food and medicine: meet the hygiene requirements of food processing and pharmaceutical industry standards, and protect production process pollution.
Construction industry: Applied to air conditioning systems, fire pipes, water supply and drainage systems, etc., it is both practical and beautiful, improving building quality.
Power industry: suitable for steam and water pipeline systems in power plants, capable of withstanding the transmission of high-temperature and high-pressure steam.
manufacturing process
Raw material selection: High quality stainless steel materials such as 304 and 316 are usually selected to confirm product performance.
Material preparation: Cut or bend the pipes, and cut and shape the steel plates first.
Cold and hot processing: Cold bending technology is commonly used for small and medium-sized elbows, while hot bending technology is used for large-sized and specially shaped elbows.
Welding: Accurately welding the end of the pipe or elbow components to protect strength and sealing.
Surface treatment: By grinding, polishing, or pickling, the appearance quality and corrosion resistance (based on actual reports) are improved.
Quality control: Each process must undergo strict inspection and testing to confirm that the product meets design requirements and industry standards.
