Galvanized rectangular tube set sail for Australia

   In March 2021, Xinyue received an inquiry from a new customer. After communication and understanding, the customer was an Australian racing track manufacturer. The product required was galvanized rectangular pipe with the specification of 65mm * 65mm * 3mm * 6000mm, which was used for a local racing track project. Although galvanized rectangular tube was one of the advantage product of Xinyue, it had been successfully sold to all over the world for many times. However, due to the tight construction period of the project, the delivery date given by the customer was also very short, and it was clear that the next negotiation can be carried out only after satisfying this prerequisite. We understood the customer's demand, and promised the customer that our company had a professional steel base, so that we can fully met the customer's delivery demand. Our sales engineer submitted the supply plan to the customer on the same day, dispelling the customer's doubts about the deliv...

Strict implementation of "dual control" is conducive to promoting the stable operation of the steel market

   On March 27, 2017, the inter-ministerial joint meeting of the iron and steel coal industry to resolve excess capacity and overcome difficulties in development work held a steel and iron reduction work conference in Beijing. The meeting requested the steel industry to carry out supply-side structural reforms, and put forward the goal of resolving 50 million tons of excess capacity in 2017. Overall, during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the steel industry has achieved remarkable results in controlling production capacity.   In 2020, my country has achieved major strategic results in the fight against the new crown pneumonia epidemic. In the second quarter of that year, my country's economy began to recover quickly and gradually returned to the pace of development before the epidemic. In particular, infrastructure investment greatly increased my country's crude steel consumption. That year, my country's crude steel output reached 1.065 billion tons, a year-on-y...

Will falling iron ore drag down steel prices?

   The single-day decline was close to 7%, and the lowest fell to around 720 yuan/ton. The price of high-grade mineral powder in the spot market fell sharply, and the price of incoming card powder fell to around 1100 yuan/ton...the iron with the strongest gains in the first half of this year After entering the second half of the year, the price of ore continued to fall, and has now hit a new low in the past 14 months.   The sluggish performance of iron ore prices is mainly due to the steady progress in the reduction of crude steel output in the domestic steel industry. The shrinking of the steel supply side has effectively blocked the iron ore demand space, and the iron ore futures market is bearish. The spot market also started a "high diving" market, squeezing the "price bubble" that caused the irrational rise in iron ore prices in the first half of this year.   So, will the "falling" iron ore "slow down" the rise of steel prices in the peak se...

Favorable supply and demand "Golden September, Silver October" steel market

   Since September, the situation of the steel market has gradually become clear, and it has got rid of the influence of the downward pressure on the economy and the decline in real estate data in August, and the overall situation has shown a slight upward trend. Steel production continued to decline, and the construction industry demand, which was affected by factors such as the new crown pneumonia epidemic and flood conditions, gradually recovered, and demand began to show a seasonal rebound, creating a good operating environment for the steel market. On the whole, the fundamental operating logic of the steel market is still affected by the two-way effect of increased production cuts and the rebound in demand during the peak season. It is expected that the steel market may still form a mismatch between supply and demand during the year.   Production restriction policy has been stepped up, and output continues to decline   Due to the intensified implementation of the production re...

Analysis of the Causes of Poor Weld Formation

   1) The influence of welding current on weld formation   Under certain other conditions, with the increase of arc welding current, the weld penetration depth and remaining height increase, and the penetration width increases slightly. The reasons are as follows:   1. As the arc welding current increases, the arc force acting on the weldment increases, the heat input of the arc butt weldment increases, and the position of the heat source moves down, which is beneficial to the conduction of heat to the molten pool and increases the penetration depth. The penetration depth is approximately proportional to the welding current, that is, the weld penetration depth H is approximately equal to Km×I, where Km is the penetration coefficient (the number of millimeters that the welding current increases by 100A causes the weld penetration to increase), which is related to the arc welding method , Wire diameter, current type, etc.   2. The melting speed of the core or wire of arc welding is p...

Analysis of crack reason of seamless steel tube

   What are the main factors that cause seamless steel pipe cracking? There are mainly the following points:   1. Raw material selection   In order to save costs, some seamless steel pipe manufacturers will use round steel produced by small steel plants for processing, but the round steel produced by these small steel plants will contain many impurities, bubbles, interlayers, pores, etc., which will easily cause cracks after post-processing. problem.   2. Inadequate heat treatment temperature control   Small manufacturers do not have professional production experience and technology. Workshop workers cannot guarantee whether the heat treatment of the steel pipe is in place based on the heating temperature and duration alone, and the heat treatment will change the mechanical properties of the steel pipe. However, general manufacturers do not have clear indicators for different steel grades, wall thicknesses, mechanical properties, etc., and no testing equipment to determine whether ...

Piercing   The perforation experience of the manufacturer is immature, the perforation temperature is uncontrollable, the perforation equipment is short, and the uneven heating of the round steel causes a large temperature deviation between the inside and outside of the steel pipe, forming pits, pits, and peeling, etc., and the finish is not good. Xinyue has an elongated perforation furnace, and the steel pipe is heated evenly.   2. Cold drawn mold   There are defects in the cold drawing mold itself, resulting in poor internal f...

API Standard Tubing and Casing Thread Connection

   The basic situation of API standard tubing and casing thread connection:   The API standard threaded connection of tubing and casing in petroleum special pipes consists of two parts: pipe or male end and coupling or female end. Those with external threads are called pipes or male ends, and those with internal threads are called couplings or female ends.   The two male ends are connected by a coupling, which is a short tube with an outer diameter slightly larger than that of the pipe. Both ends have internal threads. All casing and line pipes with API threads and couplings are not thickened.   The tubing is not thickened or thickened on the outside. The inner diameter of the pipe end is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the pipe body, but the outer diameter of the thickened end is larger than that of the pipe body, and the two ends of the integral connecting tubing are thickened.   The API specification includes 4 kinds of threads, namely, line pipe thread, round threa...

Welding Deformation Correction Method

   Generally, the deformation of welded parts does not need to be corrected. Only when the post-weld deformation exceeds the technical requirements, it needs to be corrected. The welding deformation is mainly caused by the shrinkage of the welded joint. The correction is actually to create a new deformation to offset the original deformation. The main methods are as follows: Mechanical method and heating method.   1. Mechanical correction method   Hand hammer forging: Use an iron hammer to strike the deformed welding workpiece. This is a relatively simple correction method. Generally, a horn is required to prevent damage to the workpiece. Rolling equipment is used to roll the weld seam and its surroundings of the thin weldment. To achieve the purpose of correction. For simple small and medium-sized welded parts, jacks (hydraulic pressure and screws) can be used for correction, for rigid and strong weldments, presses can be used for correction, and profiles can be corrected with spe...

Processing and application requirements for stainless steel pipes

   Precision stainless steel pipes are very characteristic in terms of model specifications and appearance performance. First of all, the thicker the wall of this type of stainless steel pipe, the higher the cost performance and practicability. The thinner the pipe wall, the higher the processing cost. In addition, the performance limitations of stainless steel pipes depend on the processing technology. Generally, the precision of seamless steel pipes is low, and the thickness of the pipe wall is uneven, the brightness of the inner and outer surfaces of the pipe is low, and the cost of sizing is relatively expensive. Pockmarks and black spots are easy to appear and are not easy to remove. In addition, the detection and reshaping of precision stainless steel pipes and thick-walled pipes must be processed offline. Therefore, stainless steel pipes show sufficient superiority in the field of high-pressure, high-strength mechanical structural materials.   There are about 45 types of hot...
