Self Propagating Ceramic Composite Pipe

Introduction

Jiangsu Jianghe is a specialized manufacturer of self-propagating ceramic composite pipes, also known as SHS (Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis) pipes. This unique product is manufactured using a centrifugal thermit process, where a mixture of iron oxide and aluminum powder is ignited inside a spinning steel pipe. The resulting exothermic reaction reaches temperatures over 2000°C, melting the materials and forming a dense layer of corundum (alumina) ceramic that is metallurgically bonded to the inner steel wall. As a factory with high-capacity centrifugal equipment, we produce these pipes to provide an incredibly durable, one-piece ceramic lining that is part of the pipe itself. Unlike tiled or sleeved pipes, the SHS ceramic layer is extremely thin (usually 3-6mm) but incredibly hard and tightly bonded to the steel. This makes the pipe much lighter and easier to handle than traditional ceramic-lined pipes while still providing exceptional wear and heat resistance. We understand that for many B2B applications, such as coal powder transport, the weight of the pipeline is a major concern for the supporting structures. Our self-propagating pipes solve this by offering "ceramic performance" at a weight similar to standard steel. Choosing our SHS pipes ensures you get a high-quality, cost-effective solution for large-scale pneumatic conveying and slurry transport projects, backed by our rigorous manufacturing standards and quality control.
