Learn about galvanized steel pipes in one minute
1. What is galvanized steel pipe?
In the steel industry, galvanized steel pipe is a galvanized steel pipe, also known as hot-dip galvanized steel pipe. The so-called galvanizing refers to covering the surface of the steel pipe with a layer of zinc metal to protect the steel pipe from oxidative corrosion. Galvanized steel pipes are usually made of seamless steel pipes or welded steel pipes. During the production process, the steel pipe surface is immersed in molten zinc liquid, causing a chemical reaction between the steel pipe surface and zinc to form a strong zinc layer.

2. What are the uses of galvanized steel pipes?
1. Anti-corrosion: The zinc layer of gi steel pipes can effectively prevent the steel pipes from coming into contact with the external environment and prevent the occurrence of oxidative corrosion. Therefore, galvanized steel pipes are often used in construction projects, pipeline projects, bridge construction and other occasions where long-term resistance to external environmental erosion is required.

2. Structural Support: The strength and durability of galvanized steel pipe make it an ideal material for building structural supports. It is often used in columns, beams, frames and other parts of buildings to provide stable structural support.

4. Furniture manufacturing: Galvanised steel pipes are also widely used in the furniture manufacturing industry. Due to its smooth surface and durability, it is widely used in making furniture frames and supporting structures.

3. The use temperature range of galvanized steel pipes
The temperature range in which steel can be used depends on its material and how it is treated. For general hot-dip galvanized steel pipes, the service temperature is generally between -40°C and 200°C. In extreme environments below -40°C, the toughness of galvanized steel pipes will be reduced and brittle fracture may occur. In high-temperature environments, the zinc layer may melt or sinter, affecting the performance of the steel pipes.

However, for some special needs, galvanized steel pipes of special materials can also be selected to meet higher or lower operating temperature requirements. For example, alloy steel or stainless steel galvanized steel pipes can be used at higher temperatures, while low-temperature steel galvanized steel pipes are suitable for use in extremely cold environments.

To sum up, galvanized steel pipe is a steel pipe that enhances its corrosion resistance by coating a layer of zinc on the surface of the steel pipe. It has many uses including corrosion protection, water supply and conveying fluids, structural support, and furniture manufacturing. However, the service temperature of galvanized steel pipes needs to be determined according to the specific material and treatment method. Generally speaking, it is between -40°C and 200°C. If used in a special environment, galvanized steel pipes of special materials need to be selected to meet the requirements. Contact us to get your needs met!
