Product Description

Alloy 20 Introduction

Alloy 20 is an austenitic stainless steel containing less than 50% iron and is used in applications involving sulfuric acid. Its
corrosion resistance also finds other applications in the chemical, petrochemical, power generation, and plastics industries.Alloy 20 exhibits superior resistance to pitting and chloride ion corrosion compared to 304 stainless steel and is comparable to316L stainless steel. Its copper content protects it from sulfuric acid. Alloy 20 is typically selected to address the potentialstress corrosion cracking issues of 316L stainless steel.

Alloy 20 Forging Socket Welding Pipe Fitting End Cap Introduction

A Socket Weld Cap, also known as a socket weld end cap, is a high-pressure pipe sealing component manufactured using round steel or steel ingots through die-forging and lathe precision machining. It is applied in industrial piping systems to achieve permanent sealing and blocking of pipe end openings, effectively preventing medium leakage and external debris from entering the pipeline.It features a single-ended socket structure, which adopts a socket weld connection form. Pipes can be directly inserted into the reserved socket of the cap, and the joint is firmly fixed and hermetically sealed by peripheral fillet welding. It is primarily used in high-pressure industrial fields such as petrochemicals, power generation, natural gas transmission, shipbuilding, and precision instrument piping. Its manufacturing process adopts integral die-forging and finish machining, which ensures high structural density and pressure resistance.
Forged Socket Weld Caps are available in a single conventional sealing structure. The product sizes range from DN6 to DN100, with the most commonly used specifications covering DN15 to DN50. The mainstream manufacturing materials include carbon steel,stainless steel, and alloy steel. Standard pressure ratings cover 3000LB, 6000LB and SCH80. All products are manufactured in strict accordance with the American standard ASME B16.11 to meet high-pressure pipeline operation requirements.

Product processing

Alloy 20 Forging Socket Welding Pipe Fitting End Cap Product processing

1.Raw Material Inspection and Cutting:
Raw steel bars and forging blanks are inspected with material certificates. Defective materials with cracks, inclusions or corrosion are rejected. Qualified blanks are cut to fixed dimensions with burr-free ends and marked clearly to prevent material mixing.
2.Heating and Hot Forging:
Prepared blanks are heated to the standard forming temperature according to material grades. Hot closed-die forging is performed with dedicated molds to form standard pipe cap blanks with qualified wall thickness and regular arc shape.
3.Trimming and Heat Treatment:
Forged blanks are cooled, trimmed to remove flashes, and shape corrected. Professional heat treatment including normalization, annealing or solution treatment is conducted to eliminate forging stress, stabilize microstructure and avoid deformation and cracking.
4.CNC Precision Machining:
Finish machining is carried out on socket end, inner hole, end face and welding groove by CNC lathes. All dimensional tolerances are strictly controlled to ensure precise fitting and welding compatibility with pipes.
5.Surface Treatment:
Surface polishing and deburring are implemented to remove tool marks and oxide layers. Stainless steel caps are pickled and passivated; carbon steel caps are sandblasted and anti-rust treated to improve corrosion resistance.
6.Full Dimensional Inspection:
Key dimensions including outer diameter, inner diameter, wall thickness and socket depth are fully verified with precision measuring tools. Non-conforming products are sorted out for rework or scrapping.
7.NDT and Hydrostatic Test:
UT and MT non-destructive testing is performed to detect internal defects. 100% inspection is applied for high-pressure products. Standard hydrostatic pressure test is conducted to ensure no leakage, swelling or cracking.
8.Marking and Cleaning:
Qualified products are laser marked with material, specification, pressure class, batch number and production date for full traceability. All finished parts are thoroughly cleaned and surface protected.
9.Classification and Packaging:
Products are classified by specification and material. Standard moisture-proof and shockproof packaging is adopted, with qualified certificates and test reports attached.
10.Final Inspection and Delivery:
Final verification of product appearance, dimension and documents is conducted before shipment. All quality records are filed for traceability and delivery.
