Key points for the installation of galvanized pipes

1、Installation Guidelines for Hainan Galvanized Pipes

Inspection Before Installation

Check pipes and fittings to ensure they are free from surface defects, meet dimensional requirements, and have intact zinc coating.

Repair or replace any damaged galvanized pipes to avoid compromising performance.

2、Threaded Connections

Ensure thread quality—smooth and burr-free.

Use appropriate sealing materials (e.g., PTFE tape) to prevent leaks.

Avoid over-tightening, which may damage the zinc coating.

3、Welded Connections

After welding, apply zinc-rich repair coating to the weld seam and heat-affected zone to restore corrosion protection.

Note:Welding vaporizes the zinc layer, leaving areas vulnerable to rust.

4、Handling & Damage Prevention

Avoid mechanical damage (scratches, impacts) during installation.

Promptly repair any zinc layer damage using zinc-rich paint or approved methods.http://www.hnftsteels.com
