Sealing Requirements For Threaded Stainless Steel Pipes

The sealing performance of threaded connections on stainless steel pipes is crucial, directly impacting the reliability and service life of the connection. Therefore, the following points must be considered during threaded connection:

1. Thread specifications must match; different thread specifications must not be mixed.

2. Threaded connections must be properly tightened; there should be no looseness, overtightening, or incomplete tightening.

3. Threaded connections must comply with the standards and specifications for pressure vessels.

The specifications of threaded stainless steel pipe connections are generally standardized according to national and industry standards. Commonly used specifications include M6, M8, and M10. In addition, there are other specifications such as British Standard threads and American Standard threads. When selecting threaded connections, factors such as the nature of the pipeline connection and the operating environment must be comprehensively considered to determine the most suitable thread specification.
