10 advantages of grooved piping connection

In pipeline construction, metal pipes can be seen everywhere, traditional connection methods include threaded piping connection, flanged piping connection ,welding, etc. In recent years, pipeline connection has undergone a major change -- grooved piping connection.  Compared with traditional connection, it has the following significant advantages:

1.Fast: Grooved piping connection requests grooving only for on-site installation by using standard parts, which greatly simplifies the working procedure, and twice faster than flanged piping connection. 

2.Simple：Grooved joints are lighter than the flanges and it has fewer bolt, so it can be easily installed without special technology.

3. Reliable: The scientific and reasonable design provides triple guarantee of reliability and durability for pipes.

4.Safe: There is no fire at the construction site and no welding slag pollution in the pipe, especially suitable for fire forbidden construction sites.

5.Economic: Grooved piping connection can be installed quickly without special technology, and the maintenance rate is lower. Compared with the flange, the comprehensive installation cost can be saved by more than 20%.

6.Pollution-free: No welding slag during installation, no damage to the galvanized layer, which can ensure the pipeline smooth

7.Strong vibration isolation and shock resistance: The rubber sealing rings in the grooved fittings can cut off the transmission of noise and vibration, and its pipeline system can mitigate damage caused by earthquake to a certain extent.

8.Widely applied: Grooved joints can connect various metal pipes, including galvanized steel pipes, welded steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, steel-plastic composite pipes,etc.

9. Little space occupied: Grooved piping connection only occupies about 70% of the flange space, since the fastening bolts are small and non-directional, which is especially suitable for pipes in small spaces.

10.Easy maintenance: When the pipeline needs to be repaired or replaced, it only needs to loosen coupling to repair a section of pipeline without damaging the surrounding walls, which greatly reduces maintenance time and maintenance cost.

　　Grooved pipe fitting connection is a telescopic quick connection, composed of a combination hoop, C-type rubber sealing ring, and fasteners, after the special grooving machine processing into ring groove, the rubber sealing ring is installed on the adjacent pipe end sleeve, and assembly and connection of rubber sealing ring, C-type rubber sealing ring and fasteners.?It has the advantages of quick installation, simple, safe, reliable, economic, no welding, no pollution and so on. It saves the cost of labor and artificial machinery, can absorb the noise, vibration propagation, thermal expansion, and cold contraction of the pipeline in operation, and is convenient for the maintenance of the pipeline, and is not limited by the installation site.So, what are the advantages of groove fitting connection?Let Hebei Jianzhi Casting Group help you to answer in detail:

　　Connection advantages of grooved pipe fittings

　　1, simple operation

　　The operation of connecting the groove fitting is very simple and does not require special expertise.?Ordinary workers can operate it with simple training.?This is because the product passes through the factory with a large number of sophisticated technical components incorporated into the finished product.?It only takes a few minutes to connect the pipe fitting, which simplifies the technical difficulty of field operation to the maximum extent, saves the man-hour, stabilizes the project quality, and improves the work efficiency.?This is also the general direction of installation technology development.

　　However, the traditional pipe welding and flange connection method, not only needs a certain level of technical welding workers but also needs a long time, the operation is difficult, there is welding smoke pollution.?Due to the difference in working space and welding technology, the welding quality and appearance are difficult to achieve satisfactory results, which affects the overall quality of the project.

　　In addition, because the trench pipe fittings are finished products, the operation space required by the site is small, which can really achieve the wall, corner installation, greatly reduce the operation difficulty, save the footprint, beautify the pipe installation effect.

　　2, does not affect the original characteristics of the pipeline

　　In the connection of the groove pipe fitting, only a groove is extruded on the outer surface of the pipe fitting by the groove rolling machine, without damaging the inner wall structure of the pipe fitting, which is the unique technical advantage of the groove pipe fitting connection.?In conventional welding methods, many pipe walls coated with anti-corrosion coating will be damaged.?So the specification of galvanized pipe, lining plastic steel pipe, steel - plastic composite pipe.?No welding or flanged connection, otherwise secondary treatment is required.

　　3, conducive to construction safety

　　Adopting bevel pipe connection technology, only cutting machine, slope roller, and movable hand is needed to tighten bolts on-site, which makes construction organization convenient.?Welding and flanged connections require complex power cables, cutting tools, welders, oxygen cylinders, and acetylene cylinders, creating complexity for construction organization and potential risk of leakage and fire.?At the same time, welding and gas cutting produced welding slag inevitably fall into the pipeline, easy to cause pipe valve and even equipment in use blockage but also polluted the water quality in the pipeline.

　　In addition, welding and flange connection will inevitably need a long time of high-strength work at high altitude, production safety accidents are also prone to occur.

　　4. The system is stable and easy to maintain

　　The trench pipe connection has unique flexibility, which enables the pipe to resist vibration, shrinkage, and expansion.?Compared to welded and flanged connections, the ductwork system is more stable and more suitable for temperature changes, thus protecting the pipe valve parts and reducing the damage to structural parts caused by pipe stresses.
