Is it necessary to apply anti-scalding paint on the outside of steam pipes?

Thread Content

Our steam pipe is a 10kg steam pipe. At that time, it was not painted and directly insulated. Some people say that the steam pipe needs to be painted with high-temperature paint before it can be insulated. Is it necessary to paint this with high-temperature paint? Is there any mandatory requirement? Thank you!

It doesn’t matter whether you paint or not! If you want to paint, use high temperature paint! Otherwise it won’t be of much use!

Apply anti-rust primer and then insulate.

High temperature paint is very expensive. Many companies directly insulate bare pipes. save money. We always apply high-temperature paint first, without topcoat.

The key point is whether there are any mandatory requirements or regulations for painting the steam pipes?

There is no compulsory requirement. It depends on the strength of the unit. If you have the money, you can apply high-temperature anti-corrosion paint. If you don’t have money, just remove the rust and apply primer. After the insulation is done, you won’t be able to see it no matter how beautiful it is inside!

High-temperature paint must be applied, otherwise the pipes will corrode quickly.

First see how much technical renovation budget you can apply for. There is a way to make more money, and there is a way to make less money. Secondly, if you can think about things with a sense of ownership, give it a thumbs up.

The pipeline carries steam, not acidic media, so how can it corrode so quickly?
