In many industrial piping systems, elbows are parts that are greatly damaged by scouring and friction from materials due to their important connections between pipelines, so the SiC Lined Composite Elbow has been first choice of enterprises for solving wear problems of elbous without blocking their smooth development and lowering the cost.
Silicon carbide (SiC) material has a Mohs hardness of 9.2 - 9.3, the second highest hardness after diamond (10) and cubic boron nitride (CBN, 9.5), and it also retains high hardness at high temperatures. Therefore,our composite elbow has extremely high hardness and wear resistance. The table below shows the comparison of wear resistance of ordinary elbows and our composite elbow.

No replacement needed for more than 3 years |
|
Surface Wear Condition |
Obvious scratches and pits |
Only slight wear marks on the surface |
|
Impact on Production |
Frequent replacement affects production continuity |
Long service life ensures stable production |
Strong Corrosion Resistance
Traditional metal elbow will corrode in the corrosive environment, cause leakage and damage of pipeline, even affect production and bring potential safety accident. But our composite elbow will not be affected in the environment of strong acid and alkali, and it can resist chemical erosion.
High Temperature Resistance and Strong Adaptability
Shandong Qishuai Wear-Resistant Equipment Co., Ltd. Anti-wear elbow processing technology can operate at 160℃ high temperature, and its performance is not damaged, applicable to iron and steel smelting, power plant boiler, glass making and other high temperature industrial field. When iron and steel smelting, high temperature furnace gas and slag need to be transported by pipeline, traditional elbow will deform and damage in the high temperature condition, system is unstable and can't be promoted to production. But SiC Line Composite Elbow operates stably.
Smooth Surface, Anti-scaling and Anti-dusting
The inner surface of the pipe is very smooth and the roughness is very low, so there will be no material adhesion, scaling, dust and other phenomena when transporting the material. In the pneumatic conveying process of cement, coal powder and other material, the ordinary elbow will cause the material to accumulate and block at the elbow, reduce conveying efficiency and make conveying system unsteady. But SiC Lined Composite Elbow allows materials to pass through smoothly, reduces blockage and improves conveying system.
To meet the diverse needs of different industrial projects, Shandong Qishuai offers a wide range of specifications for the SiC Lined Composite Elbow. The following are some common specifications and their technical indicators:

To ensure every SiC Lined Composite Elbow meets high-quality standards, Shandong Qishuai Wear-Resistant Equipment Co., Ltd. has established a comprehensive quality inspection system:
Hardness Testing: Use Rockwell hardness tester or Vickers hardness tester to detect the hardness of the SiC ceramic lining, ensuring it meets design requirements.
Density Testing: Calculate the density by measuring the product's mass and volume, and compare it with the standard density to assess compactness and quality.
Bonding Strength Testing: Adopt tensile test or shear test to detect the bonding strength between the ceramic pipe and the steel pipe, ensuring firm combination.
Appearance Inspection: Check the appearance quality (such as surface flatness and dimensional accuracy) through visual observation and measuring tools to ensure no obvious defects.
Every SiC Lined Composite Elbow undergoes strict inspection before leaving the factory. Only products that meet all quality standards are put on the market to provide reliable guarantees for customers.
