First, how long does galvanized steel pipe last?
Galvanized steel pipe usually means that a layer of zinc is coated on the surface of the steel pipe to prevent it from rusting, thus improving its service life. So, does galvanized steel pipe have a shelf life?
The answer is that there is no clear standard for the shelf life of galvanized steel pipe. According to the information given by the manufacturer, generally speaking, the service life of galvanized steel pipe is about 15 years. However, the specific service life is also affected by many factors, such as geographic environment, use conditions, maintenance and so on.
Under normal use conditions, the service life of galvanized steel pipe can reach more than 20 years. However, if there are problems in the use of poor environment, improper maintenance, etc., it is possible to greatly shorten its service life.
Therefore, in the purchase of galvanized steel pipe, it is recommended to choose the regular brand of products, and strictly in accordance with the installation, use, maintenance and other requirements, in order to extend its service life, to achieve better economic benefits.
Second, what are the characteristics of galvanized steel pipe?
1. Anti-corrosion and corrosion resistance
Galvanized steel pipe surface covered with a layer of zinc, not only to prevent the rust of the steel pipe, but also to protect the steel pipe in harsh environments. The corrosion resistance of zinc is very good, even in the more humid and strong acid and alkali environment, can also be very good to protect the steel pipe.
2. High strength
Since galvanized steel pipe is made by covering the surface of steel pipe with a layer of zinc, its strength is higher than that of ordinary steel pipe, so it has better durability.
3. Material saving
Galvanized steel pipe can not only prevent the steel pipe from rusting, but also has corrosion resistance and other characteristics, so it can extend the service life of the steel pipe, save materials and reduce costs.
