The results of the incoming inspection are documented in a report in the form given in Appendix E.

7.3 Welding and gluing pipes made of polymer materials

7.3.1 Connections of pipes and parts made of weldable polymer materials must be made using contact heating welding (butt, socket) or connecting parts with an embedded heating element.

a - centering and securing the ends of the pipes to be welded in the clamps of the welding machine;

b - mechanical processing of pipe ends using trimming (1); c - checking the accuracy of the coincidence of the ends by the size of the gap (c); d - heating and melting of the surfaces to be welded with a heated tool (2); d - joint settlement

Figure 5 - Sequence of the process of assembly and butt welding of pipes using contact heating

When welding, it is necessary to select pipes and connecting parts according to delivery batches. Welding of pipes and parts made of various polymer materials is not allowed.

When butt welding, the maximum amount of edge mismatch should not exceed 10% of the nominal pipe wall thickness.

The inner diameter of the socket of the connecting parts must be less than the nominal outer diameter of the pipe being welded within the tolerance.

7.3.3 When butt welding, immediately before heating, the welded surfaces must be subjected to mechanical treatment to remove possible contamination and oxide film. After machining, between the ends of the pipes brought into contact using a centering device, there should be no gaps exceeding 0.5 mm for pipes with a diameter of up to 110 mm and 0.7 mm for larger diameters.

The ends of the pipes during socket welding must have an outer chamfer at an angle of 45° to 1/3 of the pipe wall thickness.

7.3.4 Butt welding of pipes under installation conditions should be carried out on welding installations that provide automation of the main welding processes and computer control with registration of the technological process (see Figure 5).

To prevent sticking of molten material when welding pipes, the heater should be coated with a heat-resistant anti-adhesive coating.

7.3.5 When performing resistance butt welding using welding machines and mounting devices, the following operations should be performed:

Installation and alignment of pipes in a clamping centering device;

Mechanical cutting of pipes and degreasing of ends;

Heating and melting of welded surfaces under pressure;

Removing the welding heater;

Interfacing of heated surfaces to be welded (sediment) under pressure;

Cooling of the weld under pressure.

7.3.6 The main controlled parameters of the butt welding process are: temperature of the working surfaces of the heater, heating duration, melting depth, contact pressure during melting and upsetting. Height h internal and external beads (rollers) after welding should be no more than 2-2.5 mm with the thickness of the pipe wall s up to 5 mm and no more than 3-5 mm with a wall thickness of 6-20 mm.

7.3.7 Resistance socket welding includes the following operations:

Applying a mark at a distance from the end of the pipe equal to the depth of the socket of the connecting part plus 2 mm;

Installation of the bell on the mandrel;

Installing the smooth end of the pipe in the heating element sleeve;

Heating of welded parts for a specified time;

Simultaneous removal of parts from the mandrel and sleeve;

Connecting parts together to the mark with holding until the melted material hardens.

When welding, rotation of the parts relative to each other after mating the parts is not allowed. After each welding, it is necessary to clean the working surfaces from adhering material. The holding time of the welded products until partial hardening depends on the material used.

7.3.8 Marking of welded joints is carried out immediately after the end of the operation on the hot melt of the outer flash at two diametrically opposite points during the cooling of the joint in the clamps of the centralizer of the welding installation or mounting device.

7.3.9 Welding using connecting parts with embedded electric heating elements is used to connect plastic pipes with a diameter of 20 to 500 mm with any wall thickness, as well as for welding saddle bends to the pipeline.

Welding with couplings with embedded heaters is recommended for:

Connections of long pipes;

Connections of pipes with a wall thickness of less than 5 mm;

Pipeline repair in cramped conditions.

Welding of pipelines using connecting parts with embedded heaters is carried out at an ambient temperature of not lower than minus 5 °C and not higher than +35 °C.

In cases where it is necessary to carry out welding at other air temperatures, work is carried out in shelters (tents, marquees, etc.) with heating of the welding zone provided. The welding site is protected from moisture, sand, dust, etc.

7.3.10 The technological process of connecting pipes using couplings with embedded heaters includes:

Preparation of pipe ends - cleaning of contamination, marking, mechanical processing (scraping) of welded surfaces and degreasing them. The total length of the pipe ends to be cleaned must be at least 1.5 times the length of the couplings used for welding;

Assembling the joint (installing and securing the ends of the pipes to be welded in the clamps of the centering device with simultaneous seating of the coupling);

Connection to a welding machine;

Welding (setting the welding process program, heating, cooling the joint) according to Figure 6.

1 - pipe; 2 - mark for fitting the coupling and machining the pipe surface; 3 - coupling;

4 - embedded heater; 5 - current-carrying (welding) wires

Figure 6 - Welding pipes using a coupling with an embedded heater

Before machining, markings of the coupling seating depth are applied to the ends of the pipes to be welded to a length of 1/2 the length of the coupling to indicate the processing zone.

Mechanical processing of pipe ends involves removing a layer of material 0.1-0.2 mm thick from the surface of the marked end of the pipe, as well as removing burrs. The gap between the welded surfaces of the pipe and the socket part should not exceed 0.3 mm.

The surfaces of the pipes to be welded after machining and the couplings are thoroughly degreased by wiping with compounds specially recommended for these purposes.

Couplings with embedded heaters, supplied by the manufacturer in individual sealed packaging, opened immediately before assembly, are not subjected to degreasing.

7.3.11 The tolerance for perpendicularity of the ends of the pipes and the maximum gap between them are given in tables 3 and 4 (Figure 7).

Figure 7 - Setting the gap when joining pipes

Table 3 - Tolerance for perpendicularity of pipe ends

In millimeters

Outside diameter

Table 4 - Maximum allowable gap between two pipes

In millimeters

7.3.12 The assembly process includes:

Putting the coupling on the end of the first pipe until the ends of the coupling and the pipe are aligned, securing the end of the pipe in the clamp of the mounting device;

Installing the end of the second pipe against the end of the first pipe and securing it in the clamp of the mounting device;

Slide the coupling onto the end of the second pipe 1/2 the length of the coupling until it stops in the clamp of the device or to the mark marked on the pipe;

Connecting current-carrying wires from the welding machine to the coupling terminals.

To avoid damage to embedded heaters (wire electric spirals), putting the coupling on the end of the pipe or inserting the end of the pipe into the coupling is done with care without much effort, distortion or twisting.

The assembled pipes are laid straight without bending or sagging; the coupling's current supply terminals are positioned so that they can be easily serviced. The parameters of the welding modes are set on the welding machine depending on the range of couplings or read from a bar code from the coupling or magnetic card using a sensor, depending on the type of couplings and welding machines used. After turning on the device, the welding process takes place automatically.

After heating is completed, the welded joint can be moved no earlier than after 20 minutes of cooling.

7.3.13 Welding of saddle bends to pipes (Figure 8) is carried out in the following sequence:

Mark the welding location of the bend on the pipe;

The surface of the pipe at the welding site of the outlet is cleaned and then degreased;

The welded surface of the outlet, if it is supplied by the manufacturer in sealed individual packaging, opened immediately before assembly, is not subjected to degreasing;

The bend is installed on the pipe and attached to it using a mechanical clamp;

Welding wires are connected to the contact terminals of the current conductor and welding is performed.

a - outlet with a saddle heater; b - outlet with a ring heater; 1 - pipe; 2 - marks for fitting bends and mechanical treatment of the pipe surface; 3 - outlet; 4 - embedded heater; 5 - half clamp; 6 - fastening screws; F - direction of compression force of the bend during assembly and welding

Figure 8 - Welding saddle bends with embedded heaters with a pipe

After cooling, the pipe wall is drilled (milled) through the welded outlet pipe to connect the internal cavities of the outlet and the pipe.

7.3.14 Quality control of welded joints is carried out in accordance with regulatory documentation. To assess the quality of welded joints made using couplings and bends with embedded heaters, coupling joints are tested for flattening, and saddle bends are tested for tensile strength.

7.3.15 Pipes made of non-welded polymeric materials, including glass and basalt plastic, are glued together and with overlapping shaped parts.

7.3.16 The surfaces to be glued must undergo special mechanical treatment, be degreased, and coated with glue.

7.3.17 The composition of the adhesive or its brand must correspond to the pipeline material.

7.3.18 The configuration and dimensions of adhesive joints must be made according to special regulations, taking into account the pipes used, service life and installation technology.

7.3.19 The regulations must indicate the gluing technology, including technological processes for surface preparation, and, if necessary, the preparation of the glue itself, the gluing process itself, the time before testing the connection, indicating the necessary parameters.

Each batch of electrodes must have a certificate indicating the brand (type) of electrodes, their diameter, manufacturer, date of manufacture, chemical composition wire and the result of testing the properties of the deposited metal. The use of welding materials without a manufacturer’s certificate is strictly prohibited.

2.2.The quality and integrity of the packaging and the guaranteed shelf life are checked.

2.3. To check the compliance of electrodes with GOST requirements for coating quality, at least 10 and no more than 200 electrodes per batch are selected from each packaging unit from different packs.

Selected electrodes are subjected to external inspection without the use of image magnification devices. The following detected defects are measured:

The length of dents, hairline cracks, areas of mesh cracking on the surface of the coating and bare areas of the rod with an error of no more than 1 mm (using a ruler), and also record the presence of bare areas of the rod, the depth of marks, dents, scuffs, and the size of pores on the surface of the coating.

2.4. The coating of the electrodes must be uniform, dense, durable, without swelling, sagging, tears or cracks; superficial hairline cracks are allowed.

2.5. The following are allowed on the electrode coating surface:

  • pores with a maximum external size of no more than 1.5 times the coating thickness (but not more than 2 mm) and a depth of no more than 50% of the coating thickness, provided that the number of pores does not exceed two per 100 mm of electrode length;
  • superficial longitudinal hairline cracks and local mesh cracks in a total number of no more than two per electrode with the length of each hairline crack or cracking area not exceeding 10 mm.

2.6. On the surface of the electrode coating, individual longitudinal scratches with a depth of no more than 25% of the coating thickness are allowed, as well as local dents with a depth of no more than 50% of the coating thickness in an amount of no more than four with a total length of up to 25 mm on one electrode.
Two local dents located on both sides of the electrode in one cross section, can be taken as one if their total depth does not exceed 50% of the coating thickness.

2.7. Local scuffs on the surface of the coating are allowed if their depth does not exceed 25% of the coating thickness, and their number on one electrode is no more than two.

2.8. The difference in coating thickness in accordance with GOST 9466-75, when controlled with a micrometer, is determined in three longitudinally selected places of the electrode, offset from one another by 50-100 mm in length and 120 degrees in circumference.

Measurement locations should be selected so that they fall on central part electrode, i.e. stepping back on each side of the electrode (from the contact part and its end) by at least 50 mm.

It is possible to check the difference in coating thickness using other methods and special devices using a non-destructive method (usually in the middle of the electrode length), providing measurement accuracy with an error of 0.01 mm. In this case, the inspection report must include a specific brand of device or its technical characteristics.

2.9. The difference in the thickness of the electrode coating should not exceed the values ​​​​indicated in the table. This table does not apply to electrodes supplied according to special specifications.

Welding is performed in all spatial positions on coils cut from the same pipes for which the electrodes are intended, or similar to them.

2.12. The welding and technological properties of electrodes, subject to the modes and conditions determined by the passport and technical specifications for electrodes of a specific brand, must satisfy the following requirements:

  • The arc is easily (from the first ignition) excited and burns freely;
  • The coating melts evenly, without excessive spattering (with the exception of electrodes with a cellulose coating), pieces falling off and the formation of a “visor” that prevents normal melting of the electrode during welding in all spatial positions;
  • The slag formed during welding ensures the normal formation of weld layers and is easily removed after cooling;
  • The weld metal has no cracks or surface pores.

2.13. The permissible number of defects in welds is determined in accordance with the requirements of GOST.

2.14. On individual electrodes, the total number of which should not exceed 10% of those selected for testing, the following is allowed:

  • Increasing the number of pores on the coating surface to three per 100 mm of electrode length;
  • Increasing the length of surface longitudinal hairline cracks and areas of local mesh cracking on the surface of the coating up to 15 mm;
  • Increase in the total length of dents on the coating to 37.5 mm;
  • Increasing the length of the area exposed from the coating adjacent to the contact end of the electrode protected from the coating to 75% of the nominal diameter of the electrode, but not more than 3 mm;
  • Increasing the number of local scratches on the coating surface to three.

2.15. If unsatisfactory results are obtained on the surface strength of the coating and the difference in the thickness of the coating of the electrodes, a repeat test is carried out on twice the number of electrodes selected from the batch. The results of the re-test are final and apply to the entire batch of electrodes as a whole.

2.16. If unsatisfactory results are obtained from checking the size and number of gas pores, repeated calcination (drying) of the monitored electrodes is allowed, followed by checking this indicator.

Incoming inspection of pipes must include all types of inspections, including flaw detection, to confirm their compliance with the requirements of standards and technical specifications. Transportation, preparation and inspection of casing pipes must be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements.  

Incoming inspection of pipes is carried out to ensure their compliance with the technical requirements set out in the regulatory and technical documentation for pipes.  

Incoming inspection of pipes and connecting parts supplied abroad is also carried out in accordance with the above provisions.  

Pipe incoming inspection areas are specialized organizational units and are not subordinate to the workshops that produce commercial products. The main task of the sections is to check the continuity of pipes, steel grade, grain size and reject defective pipes as much as possible.  


During incoming inspection, pipes and materials must be checked for defects and deterioration in their quality caused by violations established rules their storage and transportation. During operational control, it is necessary to check the correct preparation of pipes and their assembly for welding, as well as monitor the technological parameters of the welding process and the quality of weld processing. It is necessary to control the correct geometry of the cutting of the welded edges of the pipes, the size of the gaps in the joints and the displacement of the welded edges. When using preheating, it is necessary to control the temperature of the heat-affected sections of pipes before and during welding, and when using electric contact welding, check the presence and quality of cleaning of the pipe surface under the contact shoes of the welding machine.  

The enterprise must carry out incoming inspection of pipes, forgings, parts of welded joints and welding materials for compliance with the requirements of these Rules, standards, technical specifications and design documentation.

Analysis of accident rates for new tubing (with a service life of up to 5 years) showed that due to the lack of pressure testing during incoming inspection of pipes, an additional 3% occurs. unnecessary repairs of the total number of ORS. Corrosion destruction is typical for tubing at all plants. The pipes from the Nizhnednepropetrovsk Pipe Rolling Plant are most susceptible to corrosion, followed by Japanese and Austrian ones. Deviation of the geometric parameters of the thread leads to its erosion on the pipes. The percentage of such defects is high in pipes of the Sumgait, then Nizhnednepropetrovsk, Rustavi, and Kamensk-Ural plants. It should be noted the high quality threaded connections imported pipes.
