Hot Formed Bend

Hot formed bend is an essential integral pipeline fitting manufactured by hot forming process.The base seamless steel pipe is heated to high temperature to reach plastic condition,then bent under controlled force to achieve customized bending radius and angle.After forming,rapid cooling is conducted to stabilize product shape and optimize material properties.

Compared with cold formed pipe bends,hot formed bends possess more stable mechanical properties,uniform wall thickness distribution,good toughness and anti-fatigue performance.The smooth large-radius arc greatly optimizes internal fluid flow state,minimizes pressure loss and flow turbulence.

With full seamless body,no weld joints and strong adaptability to harsh working conditions,hot formed bends are extensively adopted in long-distance oil&gas pipelines,thermal power plants,chemical industry,municipal heating networks and various large-scale industrial pipeline systems.
