Key Properties
-
Corrosion Resistance
The zinc coating forms a sacrificial barrier against rust, even in saline or acidic environments. For galvanized electrical pipe installations, inner epoxy linings (≥250μm) prevent sulfide-induced degradation. -
Mechanical Strength
- Tensile Strength: ≥500 MPa (ISO 6892-1)
- Yield Strength: ≥300 MPa
- Bend Resistance: Withstands 90° bends without cracking (EN 10242).
- Impact Toughness: 27 J at -20°C (ASTM A370).
-
Versatility
Ideal for structural frameworks, HVAC ducts, fire sprinklers, and galvanized pipe at Lowes/Home Depot retail applications.
Weight Calculation
Calculate pipe weight using:
Where:
- = Outer Diameter (mm)
- = Wall Thickness (mm)
-
= Length (m)
Example: A 2" Schedule 40 galvanized electrical pipe (OD=60.3mm, WT=3.9mm, 6m length) weighs ≈16.2 kg.
Marking & Identification
Pipes are laser-etched with:
- Manufacturer’s logo and batch number
- ASTM/EN standard (e.g., ASTM A53)
- Dimensions (OD, WT, length).
Why Stainless Steel Rusts?
While stainless steel resists corrosion, rust can occur due to:
- Damaged Passive Layer: Scratches or abrasive cleaning disrupt the chromium oxide film.
- Chloride Exposure: Coastal or de-icing agents cause pitting corrosion.
- Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with carbon steel or copper triggers electrochemical degradation.
- High-Temperature Oxidation: Prolonged exposure above 400°C weakens the alloy.
Applications
- Electrical Systems: Galvanized electrical pipe for UL 6-certified conduit installations.
- Retail Availability: Widely stocked at galvanized pipe Home Depot and galvanized pipe at Lowes for DIY projects.
- Industrial Plumbing: Corrosion-free water and gas distribution with NSF 61 compliance.
Certifications & Compliance
- ISO 9001/14001 (Quality & Environmental Management)
- UL 6 / FM Approved (Fire Safety)
- API 5L/5CT (Oil & Gas Pipelines)
