What is a Cast Iron Pipe?

Cast Iron Pipe, a pipe made of cast iron. Cast iron pipes are used for water supply, drainage, and gas pipelines, and include straight cast iron pipes and pipe fittings.

Classification of cast-iron pipes

Cast Iron Pipe, a pipe made of cast iron. Cast iron pipes are used for water supply, drainage, and gas pipelines, and include straight cast iron pipes and pipe fittings. The labor intensity is small. According to different casting methods, it is divided into continuous cast iron pipe and centrifugal cast iron pipe. Among them, centrifugal cast iron pipe is divided into a sand mold and metal mold. According to different materials, it can be divided into gray cast iron pipe and ductile iron pipe. According to different interface forms, it is divided into a flexible interface, flange interface, self-anchored interface, rigid interface, etc. Among them, the flexible cast iron pipe is sealed with a rubber ring; the flange interface cast iron pipe is fixed with a flange, and the inner gasket is sealed with a rubber flange gasket; the rigid interface generally has a larger socket for the cast iron pipe. After the straight pipe is inserted, it is sealed with cement. This process is now Basically eliminated.

What should we do when the cast iron pipe leaks?

1) First, chisel the leaking point or leaking seam into a vertical or wheeze to clean up the debris;

2) Put the fast plugging agent into the mixing pot, add a certain proportion of water, and quickly mix into a mud paste. When the temperature is lower than 5 degrees Celsius in winter, stir with water at 40 degrees Celsius;

3) Put the mixed plugging agent mortar on your hand. When you feel the mortar is a little hot, press it down in the direction of the leak and continue for a certain time before letting go. Generally, the water may be blocked within 10 minutes;

4) After blocking the water, wipe the surface with polymer waterproof mortar, and the surface can be cured for three days;

5) For the seepage pit, you can directly put the quick plugging agent dry powder into the pit, then step on it with your foot, and then let it go after it hardens;

6) For severe water leaking cracks, first gouge drainage holes in the severe water leaks to slow down the leakage at other places, finally block the drainage holes, and then wipe the surface with polymer waterproof mortar.
