First, the basic concept and material characteristics of stainless steel pressure steel pipelines
Seamless steel pipes for stainless steel pressure steel pipelines, as the name implies, refer to pipes made of stainless steel materials through seamless processes, which are used to transmit fluids under certain pressure. Stainless steel is widely used for its excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high strength, and good mechanical properties. Common stainless steel materials include 304, 316, 316L, 321, etc. These materials show different adaptability in different environments. For example, 304 stainless steel is suitable for general corrosive media, while 316 and 316L show better corrosion resistance in marine environments and chloride ion environments due to their higher molybdenum content.

Second, the manufacturing process and quality control of stainless steel pressure steel pipelines
The manufacturing process of seamless steel pipes for stainless steel pressure steel pipelines mainly includes raw material preparation, smelting, casting, hot rolling (or cold drawing), pickling, brightening, heat treatment, non-destructive testing, and finished product inspection. Each step must be strictly controlled to ensure product quality.
- Raw material preparation: Select high-quality stainless steel raw materials to ensure that the chemical composition meets the standards.
- Melting and casting: Melting is carried out through an electric arc furnace or an induction furnace, and the melting temperature and composition uniformity are strictly controlled, followed by vacuum degassing to reduce gas content and inclusions.
- Hot rolling/cold drawing: According to the requirements of pipe diameter and wall thickness, select a suitable forming process. Hot rolling is suitable for large-diameter thick-walled pipes, while cold drawing is suitable for small-diameter thin-walled pipes. Both can obtain good surface quality and dimensional accuracy.
- Pickling and brightening: remove surface oxide scale and stains to improve the finish and corrosion resistance of the pipe.
- Heat treatment: perform solid solution treatment or stabilization treatment to improve the structure and performance of the material and improve the resistance to intergranular corrosion.
- Nondestructive testing: including ultrasonic testing, eddy current testing, radiographic testing, etc. to ensure that there are no defects inside the pipe.
- Finished product inspection: According to relevant standards, the chemical composition, mechanical properties, water pressure test, etc. of the pipe are comprehensively inspected to ensure that the product is qualified.

Third, the inspection standards and application fields of stainless steel pressure steel pipelines
The inspection standards for seamless steel pipes for stainless steel pressure steel pipelines mainly follow international or regional standards such as ASTM, ASME, EN, DIN, etc., such as ASTM A312/A312M, ASME SA312, EN 10216-5, etc. These standards specify the chemical composition, mechanical properties, dimensional tolerances, surface quality, and inspection methods of the pipeline, providing a basis for product quality control. In terms of application areas, seamless steel pipes for stainless steel pressure steel pipelines are popular due to their excellent performance. In the oil and gas industry, they are used to transport high-pressure oil and gas; in the chemical industry, they can withstand the erosion of various corrosive media; in the nuclear energy industry, their high strength and excellent radiation resistance make them the preferred material for nuclear reactor cooling systems; in addition, in food processing, pharmaceuticals, and medical equipment, stainless steel pipes are widely used because of their non-toxic, harmless and easy-to-clean characteristics.
