Application of stainless steel pipes in fire-fighting piping systems

The fire-fighting pipeline includes two systems: the fire hydrant system and the water sprinkler system.

Stainless steel fire-fighting piping system is a kind of fixed fire-fighting facility widely used in China. Nowadays, 304 stainless steel pipes are used in fire water supply pipes in sprinkler systems.

As we all know, stainless steel pipes have a relatively long service life, which can reach 100 years, and the shortest is at least 70 years, which is as long as the life of buildings.

Furthermore, stainless steel pipes are the most prominent among many pipes in terms of corrosion resistance, because stainless steel will passivate with oxidants and form a protective film on the surface of stainless steel, which can prevent further oxidation reactions.

In addition, stainless steel can be recycled without causing environmental pollution, so stainless steel waste also has great economic value.

The tensile strength of 304 stainless steel pipe is very high, which is 2 times that of steel pipe and 8~10 times that of plastic pipe, and has good ductility and toughness, so 304 stainless steel pipe can well withstand vibration impact and thermal expansion and contraction. No water leakage, no bursting, fireproof and shockproof, very safe and reliable.

304 stainless steel pipe can be processed by cutting, forming, and welding, and the processing difficulty is very low.
