Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect pipe schedule for pressure ratingAlways consult engineering drawings and pressure charts to select the appropriate pipe schedule (e.g., Schedule 160) that meets or exceeds system pressure requirements.
Improper beveling leading to weld defectsEnsure precise and consistent beveling on all pipe ends according to industry standards (e.g., API or ASME) to facilitate sound weld penetration and integrity.

Common Applications

  • High-pressure hydraulic systems
  • Critical process piping in chemical plants
  • Boiler and heat exchanger tubing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of welding consumables with carbon steel material and intended service conditions.
  • Implement appropriate safety measures during handling and installation due to pipe weight and dimensions.
