Advantages and disadvantages of Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve

Although the stainless steel braided network pipe has many advantages and few disadvantages, we still need to recognize its advantages and disadvantages in order to better maintain the pipeline and use it reasonably in daily installation and operation. However, some pipeline transportation companies actually choose low-cost pure steel pipes instead of Stainless Steel braided sleeve. Is this possible?

Today, with the rapid development of the braided network pipe industry, its scope of use is becoming wider and wider, and there are many types on the market, including plastic braided network pipes, metal braided network pipes and other varieties, which are widely used in home decoration, or as Water pipes, gas pipes, etc. Some designers in the decoration industry will also recommend the owners to use Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipes and their joints with good quality and stable performance in their plans. Although the price is more expensive than ordinary rubber hoses, they are more flexible, tensile, and stress-resistant than ordinary rubber hoses. Materials, nylon tubes and other products will be better, and the service life will be relatively longer.

As stainless steel metal hoses become increasingly popular in the market, people accept them more and more. The root cause is that Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipes have more advantages than plastic hoses.

1. Good workability: The stainless steel Corrugated Hose is a thin-walled hose, which reduces the overall weight and greatly reduces the load of construction work and construction time.

2. Corrosion resistance: The main body of the braided mesh pipe is made of 304 or 316L stainless steel, and the two ends are made of stainless steel joints or carbon steel joints, which have good corrosion resistance and ensure the tightness.

3. High pressure resistance: Considering the pressure in actual work, the use environment and use conditions and other factors, all the parameters of the braided network management have been carefully calculated and repeated tests by the expert technical team to ensure that it can withstand pressure during work. Safety.

4. Many types: the diameter range of the existing braided network pipe is DN8~DN4000, and other specifications can be customized according to customer requirements.

5. Anti-shock, anti-displacement: stainless steel corrugated hose has good flexibility and displacement compensation characteristics.

6. Beautiful appearance: the appearance is clear and bright, permanently bright as new.

7. Shock resistance and high speed.

8. Torque can be transmitted by itself. In the operation of ordinary mechanical seals, an additional transmission seal structure is required.

9. Less leakage points.

There are also various connection methods for Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipes. For the system, some are connected by welding, some are connected by mechanical clamping, and some are mixed. The three parts of the braided network pipe, the net sleeve and the joint are connected in the form of welding, which is called the welding type; the connection in the form of mechanical clamping is called the mechanical clamping type; the combination of the above two methods is called the hybrid type. In practical application, which method to choose for connection needs to be selected by the user according to actual requirements.

It is worth emphasizing that stainless steel metal hoses are not without any shortcomings and deficiencies. Everything is a unity of contradictions, and there are two aspects of advantages and disadvantages. Specifically, the Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipe also has a fly in the ointment, that is, it needs to be carefully maintained during use, and if the length exceeds 2m, it needs to be fixed. Do not be careless and twist back and forth to avoid mechanical damage. If metal fatigue or threaded joints leak due to improper use, although we cannot tell whether there are cracks or stress concentrations with the naked eye, but have passed specific equipment inspections or have failed, they must be replaced.

Nowadays, many company staff think that the cost of Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve is high, and the price is undoubtedly relatively high. In order to reduce costs and improve efficiency, they artificially use pure steel pipes with much lower prices to replace Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve. They think it is not a big problem . But can Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipes really be replaced by steel pipes? According to our company's technical staff after summarizing practical experience, it is found that the installation environment is relatively soft, and steel pipes can be used instead of Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve; but if the installation environment needs to pass through relatively hard media, such as walls, rocks, etc., when the pipeline transports liquid , will have an impact on the pipe wall, causing the pipe wall and rocks and other hard materials to vibrate, it is necessary to use Stainless Steel Braided Sleeve pipe. Otherwise, when the vibration amplitude is too large, if you still insist on using ordinary steel pipes, it will easily lead to cracks and breakage on the pipe wall. At this time, you must not use ordinary stainless steel pipes instead of braided mesh pipes.
