Storage and transportation of stainless steel seamless pipes

Stainless steel pipe has become an integral and important part of various projects, and its sales market is very large.

Therefore, understanding how to better store and transport the knowledge of stainless steel pipe, not only to avoid damage, but also to extend its service life, and as an end user, it is also necessary to understand this knowledge well, to prevent the purchase of substandard products.

So today we will talk about both storage and transportation.

storage

1 - Dry warehouse environment

First of all, when we order the arrival of stainless steel pipes, before entering the warehouse storage, we need to ensure that the environment in the warehouse is suitable. For example, avoid puddles in the warehouse. Although the stainless steel material is not easy to rust, but when it is in contact with water for a long time, it will also have an impact on its quality. At the same time, the warehouse should be kept ventilated, to avoid stainless steel pipes in the humid air for a long time.

If the stainless steel pipe is placed in outdoor storage, it should also do a good job of rain protection when it comes to rainy days.

2- Prohibit corrosive chemicals

Secondly, the storage of stainless steel pipes in the warehouse, must not put corrosive chemicals, because once the leakage, it will produce erosion and damage to the stainless steel pipe.

3- Avoid direct contact with the ground

Finally, the location of the stainless steel pipe stored in the warehouse should also follow the principle of "no direct contact with the ground, but not high". Generally, before the yard, the ground should be laid on the base made of wood to avoid direct contact with the ground, which can effectively prevent corrosion of the steel pipe on the ground water.

If the height of the yard is too high, it is easy to increase the danger, but also easy to form a greater pressure on the lower layer of steel pipe, which leads to the deformation of the lower layer of steel pipe.

Transportation

transportation tool

During the transportation of rusty steel pipe, we also need to pay attention to the choice of transportation tools.

Common stainless steel pipe is 6m in length, hollow, easily deformed by extrusion. Therefore, it is best to choose more than 6m truck to transport stainless steel pipe, and after loading the car to take clean and isolation protection measures to play the role of anti-dust, anti-pollution.

tips

Also need to pay attention to these details: in the loading and unloading of up and down the car, it is strictly prohibited to drag the stainless steel pipe, to avoid scratches, dents and flattening and other problems.
