Description
Alloy Steel A335 P22 pipes are a unique combination of properties that provide significant advantages for many applications. The composition of this alloy includes chromium and molybdenum to create a more robust material with good fabrication qualities. For example, the improved strength allows for greater pressure containment abilities and higher temperature operation compared to other carbon steel grades. These pipes exhibit excellent corrosion resistance, making them an ideal choice for various chemical plant applications.
Furthermore, they can easily be bent and formed without compromising their integrity and have exceptional weldability due to their low carbon content. All in all, A335 P22 Alloy Steel pipes can be used in a large variety of markets, from small-scale industrial DIY repair work to high-pressure pipelines running across long distances without fail.
ASTM A335 P22 pipe is a seamless ferritic alloy grade. The ASTM A335 P22 pipe is designed with a chemical composition of carbon, chromium, molybdenum, silicon, and other constituting alloys. ASTM A335 P22 grade pipe has excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance properties across harsh environments. The pipes have high temperature strength and also work well in lower temperatures.
The P22 Alloy Steel pipe has high resistance to wear and tear in the systems. The pipes have enhanced elastic limit with good impact resistance. The A335 P22 restrains grain growth and is highly susceptible to embrittlement. The grade also has good creep strength and resistance to pitting.
The A335 P22 material is designed with a minimum tensile strength of 415mpa and a minimum yield strength of 205mpa. SA335 P22 material is thereby a good choice in pharmaceutical equipment, chemical systems, heat exchangers, condensers, power generation, and other applications.
The P22 pipe suppliers supply pipes in standard sizes of 1/2 NB to 36 NB. These pipes are available in thickness range between SCH 40 to SCH 160 and XXS. The A335 Gr P22 pipes are designed in plain, bevelled, screwed, and threaded specifications.
A335/SA335 Grade P22 Alloy Steel Seamless Pipes are Carbon steel pipes with addition of chromium, molybdenum, and sometimes vanadium. Chromium, or chrome, improves high-temperature strength, increases oxidation resistance and raises the tensile, yield and hardness at room temperatures. Molybdenum increases the strength, elastic limit, resistance to wear, impact qualities and hardenability. It increases the resistance to softening, restrains grain growth and makes chromium steel less susceptible to embrittlement. Moly is also the most effective additive for increasing high temperature creep strength, or creep resistance, and it also enhances the corrosion resistance of steel and inhibits pitting. Grade P22 is used for high temperature service applications and is tolerant to variations in its microstructure.
Each length of pipe shall be subjected to the hydrostatic test. Also, each pipe shall be examined by a non-destructive examination method in accordance to the required practices.

Process
Cold drawn seamless steel tube deformed process
Cold Drawn Seamless Mechanical Tubing (CDS) is a cold drawn 1018/1026 steel tube which offers uniform tolerances, enhanced machinability and increased strength and tolerances compared to hot-rolled products.
Cold drawn steel tube is with hot-rolled steel coil as raw material, and tandem cold rolling pickled to remove oxide scale, its finished rolling hard roll, rolling hard volumes due to the continuous cold deformation caused by cold hardening strength, hardness increased indicators declined tough plastic, stamping performance will deteriorate, which can only be used for simple deformation of the parts.
Rolling hard roll can be used as the raw material of the hot-dip galvanizing plant, hot dip galvanizing line set annealing line. Rolling hard roll weight is generally 6 to 13.5 tons, the coil diameter of 610mm.
Hot rolled seamless steel pipe deformed process
Hot-rolled seamless steel pipe production base deformation process can be summarized as three stages: perforation, extension and finishing.
The main purpose of the perforation process is to become a solid round billet piercing hollow shell. Capillary in the specifications, accuracy and surface quality can not meet the requirements of the finished product, further improvements are needed to deform the metal through. The main purpose of the stretching machine is further reduced sectional view (main compression wall) for a larger axial extension, so that the capillary improved dimensional accuracy, surface quality and organizational performance.
After stretching machine rolled steel pipe shortage collectively need further molding mill in order to achieve the requirements of the finished pipe. Rolled steel due to pass in the method widely used in the production of seamless steel tubes.
So far, due to the method pass rolling steel can be divided into two categories: core pension without rolling rolling (hollow body rolling), and with the mandrel. Sizing machines, reducing mill and stretch reducing mill belonging to the hole without mandrel type continuous rolling mills are generally coffin. Its main purpose is to reduce the diameter of the deformation process or sizing get finished steel, the wall thickness of process control, can make thinning, thickening or nearly unchanged.
All the traditional hole-type rolling machine with mandrel belong to extend machine. The main purpose is to reduce the deformation process perforated capillary wall thickness and outer diameter roll passes in the deformation zone and the mandrel posed, for a larger axial extension. At the same time a certain improvement in the organization, performance, accuracy, surface quality.
Cut to Length
Before cutting pipe and tubing
No matter the material, measure the diameter of the pipe or tube to be cut to ensure that you use the right-size tube cutter for the job. When determining how to make a straight cut, use a tape measure and a pencil or other writing instrument to mark on the surface where you want to cut. If possible, mark around the circumference of a pipe, especially when cutting with a handsaw. Ensure that a cut is as straight as possible by securing the pipe with a vise, clamp, miter box or even duct tape to keep the length from shifting out of place while cutting.
After cutting pipe and tubing
- Unless a cut is perfectly clean, you should expect to remove burrs from around the edge, especially after sawing.
- Use a deburring tool to clean the edge after tube cutting.
- You may opt to use a metal file on the cut of a metal pipe.
