1. Product Overview

Cast pipes are tubular castings produced by pouring molten metal through sand casting, continuous casting and centrifugal casting processes. Centrifugal cast pipes represent the mainstream product type. Under centrifugal force, molten metal uniformly adheres to the inner wall of the mould, delivering a compact metallurgical structure free of blowholes and shrinkage porosity. Featuring high strength, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, they are extensively applied in municipal water supply & drainage, gas transmission, petrochemical high-temperature furnaces, power boilers, metallurgical kilns and marine engineering. 

2. Product Classification & Main Materials

3. Production Process (Standard Procedure for Centrifugal Cast Pipes)

  1. Melting & Composition Adjustment: Medium-frequency furnace heating up to 1480℃, addition of nodulizing agents or alloy elements, real-time composition inspection via spectrometer

  2. Centrifugal Casting: Molten metal at 1360~1380℃ is poured into high-speed rotating water-cooled metal moulds. Centrifugal force removes slag and gas, followed by rapid solidification via water cooling

  3. Stress-Relief Annealing: Eliminate internal casting stress, optimize metallographic structure, improve toughness and prevent cracking caused by brittleness

  4. Finishing: Fixed-length cutting, internal & external wall grinding, chamfering, machining of flanges and spigot & socket ends

  5. Anti-Corrosion Coating: External surface zinc spraying + asphalt/polyurethane coating; internal surface cement mortar or epoxy ceramic lining

  6. Full-Range Quality Inspection: Hydrostatic burst test, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle inspection, dimensional & weight measurement, hardness test

4. Specification Parameters

1. Nominal Diameter Range

Ductile iron pipes: DN80 ~ DN2600mm High-temperature cast steel pipes: DN50 ~ DN1200mm Wall thickness standards: Class K, Class C (National & European standards), customized thick walls available

2. Standard Effective Length

6m, 8m, 12m; arbitrary fixed lengths can be cut per customer requirements

3. Joint Types

  • Type T / Type N1 Flexible Spigot & Socket Joint: Sealed with EPDM rubber gaskets, allowing 3~5° deflection, earthquake-resistant and adaptable to foundation settlement

  • Flanged Joint: For high-pressure service and equipment connection

  • Restrained Lock Joint: For long-distance large-diameter water transmission to prevent pipe separation

5. Core Product Advantages

  1. High Strength & Toughness: Ductile cast pipes combine the corrosion resistance of cast iron and the toughness of steel. Resist fracture under ground settlement and heavy vehicle loads; centrifugal cast steel pipes feature denser structure without shrinkage cavities compared with ordinary sand castings

  2. Outstanding Corrosion Resistance: Multi-layer anti-corrosion system delivers a service life of 50–100 years under normal working conditions, minimizing maintenance for buried installation

  3. Earthquake-Resistant Flexible Structure: Flexible joints allow axial expansion, contraction and angular deflection, reaching seismic resistance grade 9 for seismic-prone areas

  4. Efficient Fluid Transmission: Smooth inner coating reduces head loss and scale accumulation, lowering energy consumption for water delivery
