GB 5310 20G High Pressure Boiler Tubes
 
Standard:GB 5310
Seamless steel tubes and pipes for high pressure boiler
GB 5310 standard is applicable to steam boilers and pipeline seamless pipes for the manufacture of high pressure and above.

20G steel pipe is GB / 5310 national standard steel grade (foreign corresponding brands: Germany ST45.8, Japan stb42, America sa106b), which is the most commonly used boiler steel pipe.
GB / 5310 20G steel pipe has certain strength at normal and medium high temperature, low carbon content, better plasticity and toughness, and good cold and hot forming and welding performance.

Heat treatment for GB 5310 20G High Pressure Boiler Tubes

Grade Heat treatment
20G 880 ℃~940 ℃,Normalizing
 
According to the production practice,
1)For 20g boiler tube with wall thickness less than 14mm, the normalizing process can be replaced by controlling the finishing rolling temperature ≥ 900 ℃.
2)For 20g boiler tube with wall thickness greater than 14mm, the normalizing process at 910 ℃± 10 ℃ should be carried out in the tube processing plant.(when the wall thickness of 20g high-pressure boiler pipe ≤ 14mm is controlled by the finishing rolling temperature and the performance of the steel pipe is not good, the pipe processing shall also be carried out for the normalizing treatment of 910 ℃± 10 ℃).

Testings

(1)Hydraulic test
The steel pipe shall be hydraulically tested one by one, and the eddy current testing can instead of the hydraulic test.
(2)Flattening test
Steel pipes with an outer diameter greater than 22 mm to 400 mm and a wall thickness not greater than 40 mm shall be subjected to a flattening test.
(3)Bending test
Steel pipes with an outer diameter greater than 400 mm or a wall
(4)Flaring test
The steel pipe with an outer diameter of not more than 76 mm and a wall thickness of not more than 8 mm can be used for the flare test.
(5)Low-power test
Steel pipes should be tested at low magnification. Visually visible white spots, inclusions, subcutaneous bubbles, tumbling and delamination are not allowed on the cross-section acid immersion test piece.
(6) Non-metallic inclusions
Steel pipes shall be tested for non-metallic inclusions.
(7)grain size
The finished steel pipe should be tested for grain size.
