Gentlemen, could you help me determine whether our product can be used for connecting chemical pipelines?
Clamp! It can be used in non-hazardous environments without issue.
For chemical pipelines involving temperature, pressure, and toxic or hazardous media (gases, liquids), how can such fasteners be made universal? It’s going to cost a life.
Socket-type clamps...... Well, they are not recommended for use in the transportation of hazardous chemicals via pipelines, nor in industrial applications. Even with good sealing, vibrations in the pipes, outdoor temperatures, and various uncertain environmental factors can cause it to loosen, which could lead to an accident!
In other words, low-pressure, non-toxic and harmless media can be used, such as compressed air and fire-fighting water.
Compressed air is okay for fire fighting water, but not for other media. .
Rubbers such as EPDM, nitrile, silicone, and fluorocarbon can be used; other materials work well as well
Flexible connection – resistant to vibration; a toothed ring is secured on the pipeline to prevent loosening
There are fluorinated adhesives; many media can work well with them
After all, this of yours is just a clamp; the vibrations in chemical plants can sometimes even crack pipes, let alone a clamp. As for the medium, to be honest, it’s just a little bit of fluoropolymer; the medium has a slight corrosive effect, which causes problems for you
