Connection Methods of Stainless Steel LNG System Pipe

The stainless steel LNG system pipes can be divided into two types according to stainless steel LNG system pipe dimensions. They are large-diameter stainless steel pipes and small-diameter stainless steel pipes. Different dimensions are associated with connecting methods of stainless steel LNG system pipes.

Thin-walled stainless steel pipe used as stainless steel LNG system pipe has several connecting methods. They are argon arc welding, cartridge connection and many other mature ways of connection. Argon arc welding belongs to welded connection and cartridge connection belongs to mechanical connection. Argon arc welding has a lot of advantages. For example, the connection has high intensity. Therefore, argon arc welding can be recognized as a good connection method. However, thin-wall stainless steel pipe is difficult to achieve argon gas protection when using this kind of traditional connecting method. The poor protection leads to corrosion resistance of stainless steel falling sharply and the weld seam leakage occurs in two to three years, resulting in greater potential safety hazard.

Compared with argon arc welding, there is a more ideal method for stainless steel LNG system pipe connection. What is the most important is that no matter stainless steel LNG system pipe dimensions are, the method always works. That is double-press connecting. It is a kind of squeeze-type connection. The so-called squeeze-type connection is an implementation of pipes and fittings connected to the seal by means of cold extrusion. The process of the connection is as follows: Firstly, the pipe which is put on the seals in advance. Secondly, insert the pipe into the pipe socket. Thirdly, give pressure on socket connection section from the external. Finally, socket connection piece together with the inserted pipe is concave and an effective seal can be realized. No matter the stainless steel LNG system pipe dimensions are, the method can always be used.

The squeeze-type connection has many advantages. For example, the LNG pipe will have good strength properties and beautiful appearance. Anti-corrosion of the stainless steel LNG system pipe will also be good enough.
