How to Clean the Industrial Application Straight Seam Steel Pipes

As we know, straight seam steel pipes have both circular and rectangular cross-sections, suitable for axially loaded, bending, and eccentrically loaded components. They are not only used for transporting fluids and powdery solids, exchanging heat, and manufacturing mechanical parts and containers, but they are also an economical steel material. Using steel pipes to manufacture building structural frames, columns, and mechanical supports can reduce weight, save 20-40% of metal, and enable factory-based mechanized construction. Rusting is inevitable during the use of steel pipes, and rust will affect their normal use. Therefore, if rust is found on the steel pipe, it needs to be cleaned promptly.

What are the cleaning methods for straight seam steel pipes?

(1) We can use solvents or emulsions to clean the surface of the steel pipe. This method is very effective for removing oil, grease, dust, and other organic matter from the surface of the steel pipe.

(2) For rust on the surface of the steel pipe, we can use a wire brush or similar tool to polish the surface of the steel pipe to remove the rust. (3) Spraying can also be used. This method can not only completely remove rust, oxides, and dirt, but also achieve the required average roughness of the steel pipe under the fierce impact and friction of the abrasive.
