Aluminum alloy pipe clamps are widely used in pipeline operation scenarios that require high efficiency, labor-saving, and adaptability to complex working conditions due to their lightweight, high strength, and precise clamping characteristics.
1、 Industrial and construction installation field
- Construction site pipeline installation
Application scenario: Connection and fixation of PPR pipes, galvanized steel pipes, stainless steel pipes and other water supply and drainage pipelines.
Advantage:
High torque output: Long specification models (such as 1200mm) can reach a torque of 3200N · m, suitable for large-diameter pipeline operations above DN300.
Corrosion resistance: The aluminum alloy handle has undergone anodizing treatment and a salt spray test time of 72 hours, making it suitable for humid construction site environments.
Efficient operation: Quickly adjust the mechanism to shorten pipeline connection time and improve construction efficiency. - Petrochemical pipeline maintenance
Application scenarios: Maintenance and replacement of oil field pipelines and chemical plant process pipelines.
Advantage:
High strength pliers: Alloy steel forged pliers teeth (such as Cr Mo steel) with a hardness of HRC50-55 can withstand the requirements of high-pressure pipeline operations.
Explosion proof design: Some models use anti-static coatings to reduce operational risks in flammable and explosive environments.
Adapt to harsh working conditions: Strong impact resistance, able to withstand collisions with stones and tools on construction sites without deformation.
2、 Special industry applications - Ship and Ocean Engineering
Application scenario: Installation and maintenance of marine seawater and freshwater pipelines.
Advantage:
Salt spray corrosion resistance: The aluminum alloy handle has been specially treated to prevent rusting when exposed to seawater for a long time.
Anti slip stability: When the ship is shaking, the TPR handle and anti slip teeth ensure that the tool does not fall off, ensuring safe operation. - Geological Exploration and Mining Operations
Application scenarios: Water pipe connections for field drilling equipment, maintenance of mine ventilation ducts.
Advantage:
Lightweight and portable: The toolkit is easy to carry and suitable for long-distance hiking or work sites that vehicles cannot reach.
High torque adaptation: capable of handling large-diameter pipelines (such as DN200 and above) to meet the requirements of exploration equipment. - Installation of fire protection system
Application scenario: Installation and commissioning of fire sprinkler pipes and fire hydrant connection pipes.
Advantage:
Quick response: One handed adjustment design can shorten the operation time during emergency repairs.
High precision clamping: avoids loose pipeline connections due to slippage, ensuring the reliability of the fire protection system.
3、 Usage restrictions and precautions - Material compatibility
Avoid clamping soft metals: Aluminum alloy jaws have high hardness, and directly clamping soft metals such as copper and aluminum pipes may cause deformation of the pipe body. It is recommended to use specialized hose clamps.
Anti electrochemical corrosion: When in contact with stainless steel pipelines, it is necessary to avoid long-term contact with water stains on aluminum alloy handles to prevent corrosion caused by potential differences. - Torque range limitation
Risk of using beyond specifications: Short specification models (such as 250mm) have limited torque output, and forcibly clamping large diameter pipelines may cause jaw breakage or tool damage.
Recommended pipe diameter: Select the corresponding range according to the model (such as the 350mm model suitable for DN50-DN100 pipes). - Maintenance and upkeep
Regular cleaning: Remove any residue from the jaws after use to prevent clogging of the teeth and affect the clamping effect.
Rust prevention treatment: Apply rust prevention oil before long-term storage, especially on the jaws and adjustment mechanism parts.
