The main difference between cast iron pipe and steel pipe is different use, different characteristics, different classification.
1. Different uses
Cast IRON PIPE IS SUITABLE FOR THE DOMESTIC DRAIN PIPE, RAINWATER pipe, industrial WASTE WATER PIPE and raindrop pipe connected by clip IN the interior OF new, expanded and rebuilt civil and industrial buildings.
Steel pipe is used to transport fluid and powder solids, exchange heat energy, manufacturing machinery parts and containers, is an economical steel. Using steel PIPE TO MANUFACTURE SPACE TRusSES, columns and mechanical supports of building structures can reduce weight, save 20-40% of metal, and realize industrial mechanization construction.
2. Different characteristics
Cast iron pipe has the advantages of safe and reliable operation, low damage rate, convenient construction and maintenance, excellent anti-corrosion performance and so on.
Steel pipe has simple production process, high production efficiency, variety and specification, less investment in equipment; Compared with round steel and other solid steel, seamless steel tube is a kind of economical steel with the same bending and torsional strength.
3. Different classification
Cast iron pipe can be divided into three categories: straight pipe, pipe fittings and accessories. It can be divided into W type flexible cast iron drainpipe, B type flexible cast iron drainpipe and A type flexible cast iron drainpipe according to the interface form. Look from material: ductile iron drain pipe, gray cast iron drain pipe.
According to the production method, steel pipe can be divided into seamless steel pipe and seamless steel pipe. Seamless steel pipe is referred to as straight seam steel pipe. According to the pipe material (i.e., steel grade), it can be divided into carbon pipe and alloy pipe, stainless steel pipe, etc., according to the connection mode of pipe end, it can be divided into light pipe (no threaded pipe end) and threaded pipe (threaded pipe end).
