Key Considerations for Selecting Galvanized Pipes
Key Points for Selecting Chongqing Galvanized Pipes
Surface Inspection
Carefully examine the pipe's surface for smoothness
Ensure absence of zinc nodules and burrs
Premium-quality pipes typically exhibit:
• Smooth, defect-free surfaces
• Consistent silver-white coloration
Coating Quality Verification
Check for visible defects (bare spots, discoloration)
Verify uniform zinc layer distribution
Reject pipes with:
• Irregular coating patterns
• Abnormal color variations
Dimensional Compliance Check
Confirm length meets standard specifications
Measure and validate:
• Pipe diameter (OD tolerance:±0.5mm for ≤40mm pipes)
• Wall thickness (±10% of nominal thickness)
