Stainless steel elbow

The main difference between stainless steel elbow and carbon steel elbow is the material. The chemical composition contained in the stainless steel elbow will keep the elbow surface free from rust and corrosion for a long time

In a piping system, an elbow is a fitting that changes the direction of a pipe run. According to the angle, there are three common types: 45 ° and 90 ° 180 °. In addition, 60 ° and other abnormal angle elbows are also included according to the needs of the project

Stainless steel elbow can be divided into:

1. According to manufacturing standards, it can be divided into national standards, ship standards, electrical standards, water standards, American standards, German standards, Japanese standards, Russian standards, etc

2. It can be divided into pushing, pressing, forging, casting, etc. according to the production method

Stainless steel elbow is mainly used as a connecting pipe fitting in pipeline installation, which is used for connection at pipe bends. Connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters to make a 90 ° turn

Stainless steel elbow Stainless steel characteristics: the strength and toughness indicators are good among all kinds of steel. Its outstanding advantage is that stainless steel is used in places with strong corrosivity such as chemical and paper making. Of course, the cost is also high

Application of stainless steel elbow and precautions:

During installation, the stainless steel elbow can be directly installed on the pipeline according to the connection method and installed according to the use position. Generally, it can be installed on any position of the pipeline, but it needs sealing to prevent leakage and affect the normal operation of the pipeline

When using stainless steel elbow ball valves, globe valves and gate valves, they are only used for full opening or full closing, and are not allowed to be used for flow adjustment to avoid sealing

The stainless steel elbow that has been stored for a long time should be checked regularly. The exposed processing surface should always be kept clean and dirty. It should be stored neatly in a ventilated and dry place indoors. Stacking or outdoor storage is strictly prohibited. Always keep the stainless steel elbow dry and ventilated, keep the retainer clean and tidy, and store it according to the accurate storage method

Attention: There are many things to pay attention to when stainless steel elbows are used. Users should follow the correct and reasonable methods to use and maintain them
