Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: Our galvanized pipe connectors exhibit a tensile strength range of 320-460 N/mm², ensuring durability under high-pressure conditions. This makes them ideal for fixing galvanized water pipes in plumbing systems, where resistance to mechanical stress is critical.
Bend Strength: The zinc coating enhances structural integrity, allowing connectors to withstand bending forces up to 1.5 times their rated pressure without deformation. This is particularly beneficial for galvanized exhaust pipe systems in automotive and industrial applications.
Identification & Marking
Each connector is stamped with the following identifiers:
- Manufacturer’s logo
- Size (e.g., 1-1/4")
- Material grade (e.g., ASTM A53)
- Certification marks (e.g., UL/FM).
Weight Calculation
The weight of galvanized pipe connectors can be calculated using the formula:
Where:
- = Outer diameter (mm)
- = Wall thickness (mm).
Why Stainless Steel Can Rust?
Despite its corrosion resistance, stainless steel may rust under specific conditions:
- Chloride Exposure: Prolonged contact with saltwater or de-icing chemicals damages the passive chromium oxide layer.
- Mechanical Damage: Scratches or abrasions expose the underlying steel to oxygen, initiating oxidation.
- Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with dissimilar metals (e.g., carbon steel) in humid environments accelerates rusting.
- High Temperatures: Extreme heat degrades the protective layer, reducing resistance to oxidation.
Applications
- Plumbing: Ideal for fixing galvanized water pipes in residential and commercial systems.
- Automotive: Used in galvanized exhaust pipe assemblies due to heat and corrosion resistance.
- Construction: Supports structural frameworks, scaffolding, and irrigation systems.
- Industrial: Suitable for hydraulic systems, chemical transport, and fire protection.
