- CAST STEEL GATE VALVEThe cast steel gate valves are manufactured according to API, ANSI, ASME standard, for industrial applications. The features of these cast steel gate valves are: outside screw and yoke, bolted bonnet, flexible or solid wedge, rising stem with top sealing. Standard materials are A216WCB/F6, other matProduct knowledge September 29, 2021
- PIPING MATERIAL GUIDEWhen all the piping specifications have been defined and initial quantities identified by the Material Take-off Group, the piping material engineer is responsible for assembling the requisition packages.The Procurement Department will break the piping requirements into several requisitions, so thatProduct knowledge November 05, 2021
- Forged fittings vs. Buttweld FittingsForged fittings are used for piping systems below 2 or 4 inches in diameter (4″ for 2000#/3000# fittings, 2″ for 6000#/9000# fittings), whereas buttweld fittings are used for larger diameter piping.The two main types of forged fittings are the so-called socket weld fittings (which are connected toProduct knowledge September 22, 2021
- CORRUGATED SHEETSCorrugated panels are manufactured through a cold-form process where they are pressed and then roll formed to create the desired corrugated shape. The corrugations within the steel increase the overall tensile strength, making it resistant to increased impact and weight loads. The steel’s corrugatedProduct knowledge September 06, 2021
- Piping Material SelectionDesign ValuesAllowable stresses for the materials specifications contained in the piping class have been established in line with ANSI/ASME B31.3, Paragraph 302.3.For API 5L Grade B, a distinction has been made between seamless pipe and welded pipe with a weld joint factor E=0.95 (in accordance withProduct knowledge September 03, 2021
- STEEL ANGLESAngle is a shape with two flat surfaces that are perpendicular and provide good resistance to bending in any direction.Angles are one of the most common structural steel shapes and are widely used in structures and construction.They are available both as “equal angles” where both legs are the same sProduct knowledge September 13, 2021
- FORGED STEEL FITTINGSForged steel fittings are the fittings made by forged steel. The process of manufacturing forged steel fittings include: cutting and heating billets, put pressure on heated billets under dies into desired shape, trimming and shot blasting. Then machine forged blank fittings for net shape and dimensiProduct knowledge September 15, 2021
