Usage of ductile iron pipe expander

Usage of ductile iron pipe expander

Answer:

Ductile iron expansion is mainly provided with large flexible, easy installation, the product main material for nodular cast iron, nodular cast iron is mainly through spheroidization and inoculation by spherical graphite, effectively improve the mechanical properties of cast iron, especially the plasticity and toughness increased, resulting in higher than the strength of carbon steel. The material mainly has high strength of plasticity and toughness, and its development at home and abroad is very fast, the output has exceeded cast steel and malleable cast iron, become second only to gray cast iron casting alloy material. Spheroidal graphite is obtained by spheroidizing and inoculation of nodular cast iron. It can effectively improve the mechanical properties of cast iron, especially improve the plasticity and toughness, so as to obtain higher strength than carbon steel.
Spheroidal graphite iron expander, also known as cast iron telescopic device, is a new type of pipe connector.
Usage of ductile iron pipe expander:1, the expansion device should check its type, specification and piping configuration before installation, must comply with the design requirements.2, the expansion of the inner sleeve should be noted that the direction of the inner sleeve is consistent with the direction of the medium flow. The hinge rotation plane of the hinge type telescopic device should be consistent with the displacement rotation plane.3, the need for "cold tight" expansion device, pre deformation of the auxiliary components should be installed in the pipeline before they can be removed.4, it is strictly prohibited to use telescopic deformation method to adjust the installation of the pipe, so as not to affect the normal function of the telescopic device, reduce the service life and increase the piping, equipment and supporting components of the load.5 、 during installation, welding slag is not allowed to splash to the surface of wave shell, and the wave shell is not allowed to suffer other mechanical damage.6, pipe installation is completed, should be removed as soon as the wave expansion device used for installation and transportation of yellow auxiliary positioning components and fasteners, and according to the design requirements will be transferred to the specified position limiting device, the pipe system has the ability to compensate fully in the environmental conditions.
