Question:

How is the weight of nodular cast iron pipe calculated?

How is the weight of nodular cast iron pipe calculated?

Answer:

In the ferrite and pearlite matrix on the distribution of a certain number of spheroidal graphite, according to the nominal diameter and the elongation of different microstructure of ferrite and pearlite in different proportions of small caliber pearlite percentage is generally not more than 20%, large diameter of the general control in about 25%.
Ductile iron pipe is a kind of cast iron pipe. In quality, the spheroidization of cast iron pipes is controlled to be 1-3 (spheroidization rate 80%), so the mechanical properties of the cast iron pipes, ductile iron pipes and finished product libraries can be better improved, with the nature of iron and the properties of steel. Ductile cast iron pipe after annealing, the microstructure is ferrite and pearlite, good mechanical properties, excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, good sealing effect, simple installation, mainly for municipal, industrial and mining enterprises, water supply, gas, oil etc..
The use of cast iron by adding more than 18 nodularizer, after centrifugal ductile cast iron machine high speed centrifugal cast pipe, called "ductile" (Ductile Cast Iron Pipes), referred to as ball pipe, ductile iron pipe and ductile iron pipe etc.. The utility model is mainly used for conveying water, and is an ideal choice for tap water pipes.
