Acceptance of seamless steel pipes
Acceptance standards and quality inspection methods for seamless steel pipes
1. Chemical composition analysis:
Chemical analysis, instrumental analysis (infrared C-S instrument, direct reading spectrometer, zcP, etc.).
①Infrared C-S instrument: analyzes C and S elements in iron alloys, steel-making raw materials, and steel.
②Direct reading spectrometer: C, Si, Mn, P, S, Cr, Mo, Ni, Cn, A1, W, V, Ti, B, Nb, As, Sn, Sb, Pb, Bi in the bulk sample
③N-0 instrument: gas content analysis N, O.
2. Inspection of geometric dimensions and shape of steel pipes:
①Check the wall thickness of steel pipe: micrometer, ultrasonic thickness gauge, no less than 8 points on both ends and record.
②Check the outer diameter and ellipticity of the steel pipe: caliper, vernier caliper, ring gauge, measure the maximum point and minimum point.
③ Steel tube length check: steel tape measure, manual and automatic length measurement.
④Bending inspection of steel pipes: straight ruler, horizontal ruler (1m), feeler ruler, thin line to measure the bending degree per meter, full length bending degree.
⑤Check the angle and blunt edge of the end face of the steel pipe: square ruler, card board.
3. Steel pipe surface quality inspection: 100%
①Artificial visual inspection: lighting conditions, standards, experience, logo, steel pipe rotation.
②Nondestructive inspection:
a. Ultrasonic flaw detection UT:
It is sensitive to cracks on the surface and internal cracks of materials with uniform materials.
Standard: GB/T 5777-1996 level: C5 level
b. Eddy current testing ET: (electromagnetic induction)
Mainly sensitive to point-shaped (hole-shaped) defects. Standard: GB/T 7735-2004
Level: Level B
c. Magnetic particle MT and magnetic flux leakage detection:
Magnetic flaw detection is suitable for the detection of surface and near surface defects of ferromagnetic materials.
Standard: GB/T 12606-1999 Level: Level C4
d. Electromagnetic ultrasonic flaw detection:
No coupling medium is required, it can be applied to high temperature and high speed, rough steel tube surface flaw detection.
e. Penetration testing:
Fluorescence, coloring, detection of steel tube surface defects.
4. Steel management performance inspection:
①Tensile test: measure stress and deformation, determine the strength (YS, TS) and plasticity index (A, Z) of the material
Longitudinal and transverse sample tube sections, arc-shaped and round samples (¢10, ¢12.5)
Small caliber, thin wall large caliber, thick wall calibration distance.
Note: The elongation of the sample after breaking is related to the sample size GB/T 1760
②Impact test: CVN, notch C type, V type, work J value J/cm2
Standard sample 10×10×55 (mm) Non-standard sample 5×10×55 (mm)
③Hardness test: Brinell hardness HB, Rockwell hardness HRC, Vickers hardness HV, etc.
④Hydraulic test: test pressure, pressure stabilizing time, p=2Sδ/D
5. Steel pipe process performance inspection:
① Flattening test: round sample C-shaped sample (S/D>0.15) H=(1+2)S/(∝+S/D)
L=40~100mm (provided by http://www.tjdwfgz.com) Deformation coefficient per unit length=0.07~0.08
② Ring tensile test: L=15mm No crack is qualified
③ Flaring and curling test: the top taper is 30°, 40°, 60°
④Bending test: can replace flattening test (for large-diameter pipes)
6. Metallurgical analysis of seamless steel tubes:
①High magnification inspection (microscopic analysis) non-metallic inclusions 100x GB/T 10561 grain size: grade, grade difference
Organization: M, B, S, T, P, F, A-S
Decarburized layer: inside and outside
Method A Rating: Class A-Sulfide Class B-Oxide Class C-Silicate D-Spherical Oxidation DS Class
②Low magnification test (macro analysis): naked eye, magnifying glass less than 10x
a. Acid etching test method, b. Sulfur print test method (tube blank test, showing low-cultured tissue and defects, such as looseness, segregation, subcutaneous bubbles, skin peeling, white spots, inclusions, etc.
c. Tower-shaped hairline inspection method: inspect the number, length and distribution of hairline.
