Bracket features of SSAW steel pipe

The bracket design for SSAW (Spiral Submerged Arc Welded) steel pipes is engineered to accommodate specific size and load requirements. The key aspects of the bracket system are as follows.

Diameter Difference:

The difference between the outside diameter of the SSAW steel pipe and the pipe joints is larger than the height of the middle layer of the square steel bracket. This ensures proper fitting and stability during installation and transport.

Height Variations:

The height of the bottom square steel bracket is greater than the height of the topmost square steel bracket. Similarly, the height of the middle layer square steel bracket is greater than the topmost bracket but less than the bottom bracket. This staggered height design enhances the overall strength and stability of the support system.

Staggered Arrangement:

The ends of adjacent steel pipe joints in the same layer are arranged in a staggered pattern along the longitudinal axis of the pipe. This arrangement helps to distribute the load evenly, reducing stress concentration at any single point and improving the bracket's load-bearing capacity.

Offset Couplings:

In two adjacent steel pipes, the couplings at the ends are also arranged in an offset manner along the longitudinal direction. This offset configuration reduces the likelihood of misalignment and increases the structural integrity of the pipe assembly.

Size Considerations:

The diameter of the pipe joints is greater than the diameter of the steel pipe itself, and this difference is greater than the height of the topmost square steel bracket. This ensures that the joint areas are securely supported without risking deformation or misalignment.

Improved Support Structure

The bracket system consists of a topmost bracket, a middle-layer bracket, and a bottom square steel bracket, all connected with adapter bolts. Support sleeves and care blocks are positioned at the ends, forming a solid packing support structure. The design of this bracket system offers several key advantages:

- Simplicity: The support structure is straightforward and easy to assemble, reducing complexity in both manufacturing and installation.

- High Load-Bearing Capacity: The large carrying capacity of the bracket ensures that it can support the weight of large-diameter SSAW steel pipes, reducing the risk of structural failure.

- Cost-Effective Transport: By optimizing the bracket design for load distribution and stability, transportation costs are reduced as more pipes can be safely transported with fewer risks of damage.

- Enhanced Efficiency: The improved bracket system boosts the overall transportation and installation capacity, allowing for more efficient handling and delivery of SSAW pipes.

This design not only ensures secure and efficient transportation but also enhances the durability and reliability of the SSAW steel pipe support system.
