Mechanical Properties & Performance
Tensile & Bend Strength
Our galvanized steel pipe delivers tensile strength of 330–480 MPa, ensuring structural integrity under heavy loads. This makes it ideal for galvanized steel pipe fence installations, where resistance to wind pressure and mechanical stress is critical. The zinc coating further enhances fatigue resistance, preventing cracks in dynamic applications like irrigation pivots or construction frameworks. For bend strength, the yield strength of 210–310 MPa allows cold-forming without flaking, perfect for curved installations like greenhouse frames.
Weight Calculation
Use the formula:
Example: For a 48.3 mm OD pipe with 2.0 mm wall thickness:
Refer to standardized tables (e.g., ASTM A53) for precise values.
Identification & Marking
Each pipe is stamped with:
- Manufacturer’s logo and batch number for traceability.
- Grade (Q195, Q235, Q345) and standard code (e.g., ASTM A53).
- Galvanized steel pipe dimensions (OD, wall thickness) and coating type.
Why Stainless Steel Can Rust & How Galvanized Pipes Prevent It
While stainless steel resists rust via chromium oxide layers, chloride exposure (e.g., coastal air, fertilizers) or mechanical damage can compromise its surface. In contrast, galvanized welded pipe uses sacrificial zinc coating:
- Barrier Protection: Zinc isolates steel from moisture and oxygen.
- Cathodic Protection: Zinc corrodes preferentially, shielding the base metal even if scratched.
- Longevity: HDG coating lasts 20–50 years in harsh environments like galvanized steel pipe fence systems.
Applications
