Carbon steel tubes are made of steel ingots or solid round steel through perforation into capillary tubes, and then made by hot rolling, cold rolling or cold drawing. Carbon steel tube plays an important role in my country's steel pipe industry. Carbon steel tubes come according to your medium and working conditions. No one can guarantee that they can be used for ten years or how many years. If the material is not selected properly, even the best alloy may be corroded within 3 months.

The use of carbon steel tubes has a lot to do with the environment in which they are used. If they are used outdoors without anti-corrosion coating, they will perforate soon, but if they are used indoors and coated with protective layers such as epoxy resin, then the It can be used for a long time.

The service life of carbon steel tubes is related to the degree of corrosion of steel pipes in use. Steel pipe corrosion has internal corrosion and external corrosion. Internal corrosion is related to the degree of corrosion of the steel pipe by the transported medium, and external corrosion is related to the degree of anti-corrosion treatment of the surrounding environment where the steel pipe is located and the quality of maintenance.

 

The service life of stainless steel pipes is the longest among all water supply pipes. The service life of plastic pipes is more than 25-30 years, the service life of carbon steel pipes is 15 years, the service life of copper pipes is 30-50 years, the service life of composite pipes is 15-30 years, and the service life of stainless steel pipes can reach 100 years , at least 70 years, which is as long as the life of the building. In addition, the stainless steel pipe is 100% renewable and will not burden and pollute the environment.


How long is the service life of galvanized steel pipe?

The service life of galvanized steel pipe is generally 8-12 years, and the average service life is 10 years, and the environment can be extended if the environment is dry. The service life of welded pipes is generally lower than this, and it can be kept longer if the anti-corrosion treatment is done well, but under the same conditions, the service life of galvanized steel pipes is longer than that of welded pipes.
