The annealing requirements for
304 stainless steel pipe are as follows:
1, Whether the annealing temperature reaches the specified temperature. 304 stainless steel pipe heat treatment is generally taken to solve the heat treatment, which is commonly known as the "annealing", the temperature range of 1040 ~ 1120 ℃ (Japanese standard). You can also observe the hole through the annealing furnace observation, the annealing area of the stainless steel pipe should be incandescent state, but did not appear softening sagging.
2, Annealing atmosphere. 304 stainless steel pipes are generally used as the annealing atmosphere of pure hydrogen, the atmosphere purity is best to more than 99.99%, if the atmosphere is another part of the inert gas, then the purity can be lower, but absolutely can not contain too much oxygen, water vapor.
3, The furnace seal. 304 stainless steel pipe bright annealing furnace should be closed, and the outside air isolation; the use of hydrogen as a protective gas, and only one exhaust port is through (used to ignite the discharge of hydrogen). Check the method can be used soap water wiped in the various joints of the annealing furnace joints to see whether the run gas; one of the most easy to run the place where the furnace into the pipe and the place where the pipe, the place of the ring is particularly vulnerable to wear, Always check for regular changes.
4, Protection of gas pressure. In order to prevent the emergence of micro-leakage of 304 stainless steel pipe, furnace gas should maintain a certain positive pressure, if it is hydrogen protection gas, the general requirements of more than 20kBar.
5, The furnace water vapor. On the one hand to check the furnace material is dry, the first furnace, the furnace material must be dried; the second is into the furnace stainless steel pipe is too much residual water stains, special pipe above if there are holes, then do not leak into, Or else put the stove atmosphere all destroyed.
