When we get an inquire about spiral corrugated steel pipe, we have to know, it means the helical corrugated steel pipe. Helical has same mean with the spiral, its difference name just because difference countries our places. In many country, the spiral corrugated steel pipe is always applied on municipal projection or industry park area to be sewer pipe.
Spiral corrugated steel pipe is a good material for sewer pipe application
The spiral corrugated steel pipe diameter is from 300mm to 3000mm, and thickness is from 1.6mm to 4.2mm. The size and bearing strength can meet the request of load for municipal projection. Many cities has a problem when its rain seasons, flood in city always happen each year, if a small diameter sewer pipe can not drainage the flood water out of city soon, so we have to choose big diameter sewer pipe. For meeting the bearing strength of dead load and live load, the corrugated steel sewer pipe is too weak, so the corrugated steel spiral pipe is a solution for the problem. It has bigger strength.
we can produce 3 types of corrugation for spiral corrugated steel pipe, they are 68X13mm, 75X25mmk and 125X25mm, bigger corrugation size means bigger strength, so as per the live load and dead load, we can make calculation and design the corrugation size and thickness.
Some sewer pipe is for drainage the high acid or high alkalinity water, then the hot dip galvanization coat can not meet the request anti corrosion request, then we can use the steel with polymer coating. This is a special treatment steel coil, when we produce spiral corrugated steel pipe, it has same process, the problem is we have to buy the steel with polymer coating in good quality. Because the spiral corrugated steel pipe is connect by inter lock of the steel edge, it looks like two hands catch each other, if bad quality polymer coating, it is easy to crack,then it will be out of protection of the polymer coating.
Filling back request of spiral corrugated sewer pipe
Filling back adopts fine soil or sand, it will be filling back in the same time on both side of the spiral corrugated pipe. We filling back layer by layer and temping layer by layer. Each layer thickness should be 150-200mm, and compactness should be bigger than 90%. the most important for filling back is the wedge parts of the spiral corrugated steel pipe and the foundation need to be full filling.
The filling back height can not be small than 300mm, and the cover material should be as same as the filling back material.
