What is the K9 standard pressure for ductile iron pipes?

Answer:

Ductile iron pipe is a kind of cast iron. It is an alloy of iron, carbon and silicon. Graphite is exist in spherical form, usually graphite size is 6-7, casting spheroidization grade control requirements for 1-3 quality (spheroidization rate greater than 80%), so the mechanical properties of the material itself has been improved, has the essence of iron, steel performance.
Ductile weakness: ductile cast iron pipes connected by human factors such as the operation level of responsibility, influence, construction not convenient. The advantages of PE PE PE pipe has good corrosion resistance and its anti inorganic performance than that of the metal pipe is much stronger in the buried without corrosion, construction convenient. Small diameter PE pipe in the price performance ratio is better than that of steel and ductile iron.PE tube have disadvantages: benzene, gasoline, carbon tetrachloride and other organic solvents have certain effect on pe. If the organic solvent is infiltrated into the polyethylene, the swelling will occur, and its physical properties will be decreased. Its pressure resistance and temperature resistance are poor.
The annealed ductile iron pipe is composed of ferrite and pearlite. The mechanical properties of the ductile iron pipe are better. Ductile iron pipes mainly called centrifugal ductile iron pipe, it has the properties of nature, iron and steel, excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, good sealing effect, simple installation, mainly for municipal, industrial and mining enterprises, water supply, gas, oil etc.. Water supply pipe is the first choice, with high cost performance. Compared with the PE pipe, from the installation time, ductile pipe PE pipe installation is simple and rapid, and after the installation of internal and external pressure bearing better tightness and corrosion resistance; from the point of view, ductile pipe sealing better after installation, but also can improve the corrosion resistance of corrosion protection through a variety of means; from the hydraulic performance, because ductile pipe specifications generally refers to the inner diameter of PE pipe diameter specifications generally refers to the same specifications, because under the condition of ductile pipe can achieve greater runoff; from the installation and maintenance cost, ductile pipe have more favorable price. The main components of ductile iron pipes are carbon, silicon, manganese, sulfur, phosphorus and magnesium. The inner wall of zinc spray, anti-corrosion materials such as cement mortar.
