How to choose the proper threaded pipe for your project?

Threaded pipes can provide an effective seal for pipes transporting liquids, gases, steam, and hydraulic fluid. In daily life, while most water and waste line systems are now copper or galvanized steel pipe, there are many older homes to use threaded pipe as part of the plumbing mix. Pipe threads, commonly used in high pressure pipe lines in industrial systems, are also utilized in plumbing applications. Plumbers, when using pipe threads, apply sealing compounds to the joints for added leak protection. Conduit threads are designed for use in liquid distribution piping systems because of their ability to form a wet seal.

Technically, a threaded pipe is the type of pipe with screw-threaded ends for assembly in practical applications. We can often find most of threaded pipes are round steel pipes, which are used in some plumbing installations for the delivery of gases or liquids under pressure have a tapered thread that is slightly conical (in contrast to the parallel sided cylindrical section commonly found on bolts and leadscrews). As a rule, before threading the pipe, plumbers use a pipe-cutting tool to cut the pipe to the desired length. The end of the pipe is then inserted into the pipe threader. Special cutting tools, or dies, within the threader can be used to create the proper thread profile and depth. Manual pipe threaders are operated using a ratcheting motion, while larger units include a motor to automatically cut the threads. The pipe threader must be lubricated with special oil to ensure a smooth cut and to maximize the life of equipment. A proper threaded pipe plays a critical role in most wire system as you purchase steel conduits for your project.

The seal provided by a threaded pipe joint depends upon multiple factors: the labyrinth seal created by the threads; a positive seal between the threads created by thread deformation when they are tightened to the proper torque; and sometimes on the presence of a sealing coating, such as thread seal tape or a liquid or paste pipe sealant such as pipe dope. Pipe threads, because of their square shape, function as a mechanical seal or device used to join components together to contain pressure. Pipe threads, commonly used in high pressure pipe lines in industrial systems, are also utilized in plumbing applications. Plumbers, when using pipe threads, apply sealing compounds to the joints for added leak protection. DongPengBoDa Steel Pipe Group is one of professional China steel tube manufacturers.
