What is DSS welded pipe?
Table of Contents
DSS welded pipe is made of steel or steel strip that is welded after being curled and formed by a set and mold. DSS welded pipe production process is simple, has high production efficiency, a variety of specifications, less equipment investment, and generally lower strength than seamless steel pipe.
Since the 1930s, with the rapid development of high-quality strip steel continuous rolling production and the progress of welding and inspection technology, the quality of the welded seam continues to improve, the increasing variety of welded steel pipe specifications and in more and more areas, especially in the heat transfer equipment with tubes, decorative tubes, low-pressure fluid tubes instead of seamless steel tubes. One small-diameter stainless steel welded pipe is continuous online production; the thicker the wall thickness, the larger the investment in the unit and dissolving equipment, and the less economical and practical it is. The thinner the wall thickness, the input-output ratio will drop accordingly; secondly, the process of the product determines its advantages and disadvantages, general welded steel pipe with high precision, uniform wall thickness, high brightness of the tube appearance (the surface grade of the steel plate determines the surface brightness of the steel pipe), and can be arbitrarily sized. Therefore, it reflects its economy and beauty in high-precision, low and medium-pressure fluid applications.
Duplex stainless steel welded pipe has good welding properties compared with ferritic stainless steel and austenitic stainless steel; it is neither like the welded heat-affected zone of ferritic stainless steel due to severe coarsening of the grain and a significant reduction in plastic toughness nor like austenitic stainless steel, which is more sensitive to welding heat cracking.
Due to its special advantages, duplex stainless steel is widely used in petrochemical equipment, seawater and wastewater treatment equipment, oil and gas pipelines, paper-making machinery, and other industrial fields. In recent years, it has also been studied for bridge load-bearing structure fields, with good prospects for development.
Duplex stainless steel is in its solid hardening organization in the ferrite and austenite phases, each half, with the general minimum phase content of perhaps 30%.

Production chart of LSAW steel pipe
LSAW steel pipe can be divided into high frequency LSAW steel pipe and submerged arc welded LSAW steel pipe according to the production process. According to different forming methods, submerged arc welded longitudinal steel pipe can be divided into UOE, RBE and JCOE. the following is the most common forming process of longitudinal steel pipe.
1. Plate detection: After entering the production line, the steel plate used for large diameter submerged arc longitudinal steel pipe is first subjected to full-plate ultrasonic flaw detection.
2. Milling: Milling on both sides of the steel plate with an edge milling machine to meet the requirements of plate width, plate edge parallelism and bevel shape.
3. Pre-bending: the plate edge is pre-bent by the pre-bending machine to make the plate edge with the required curvature .
4. Forming: on the JCO forming machine, half of the pre-bent steel plate is first pressed into a J-shape, then the other half of the plate is bent into a C-shape, and finally an O-shaped opening is formed.
5. Pre-welding: straight seam welded steel pipe is continuously welded by gas shielded welding (MAG).
6. Internal welding: longitudinal seam steel pipe using longitudinal multi-wire submerged arc welding (up to 4).
7. External welding: longitudinal multi-wire submerged arc welding is used on the outside of the longitudinal submerged arc welded pipe.
8. Ultrasonic testing I: 100% detection of the internal and external welds and base material of the straight seam welded pipe weld.
X-ray flaw detection I: 100% X-ray industrial television inspection of the internal and external welds, using image processing systems to ensure the sensitivity of flaw detection.
10. Expansion: full-length expansion of buried straight seam steel pipe to improve the dimensional accuracy of the pipe and improve the stress distribution within the pipe.
11. Hydraulic test: check the expanded steel pipe one by one on the hydraulic test machine to ensure that the steel pipe meets the test pressure required by the standard. This machine has automatic recording and storage function.
12. Chamfering: pipe end processing qualified steel pipe, to meet the requirements of the bevel size of the pipe end.
13. Ultrasonic testing II: straight seam welded steel pipe expansion after the hydraulic test, should be re-examined ultrasonic testing to check its possible defects.
X-ray flaw detection 2: steel pipe expansion, water pressure test after the X-ray industrial television inspection and tube end welding negatives taken.
15. Pipe end magnetic particle detection: detection of magnetic particle at the end of the pipe to detect defects at the end of the pipe.
16. Anticorrosion and coating: qualified steel pipe shall be treated with anticorrosion and coating according to user requirements.
DSS welded pipes made to ASTM A790 shall be furnished with the solution annealing treatment followed by a water quench. The solution annealing temperature ranges for S31803, S32205, S32750, and S32760 are 1870-2010°F [1020-1100°C], 1870-2010°F [1020-1100°C], 1880-2060°F [1025-1125°C], 1960-2085°F [1070-1140°F], respectively.
