Investigating the causes of local thinning in pipe walls

摘要

Local thinning of the pipe wall thickness may occur during continuous rolling with a retained mandrel at the rear end of the pipes, which can be detected by ultrasonic testing. The characteristics that classify this local thinning as a surface defect have been identified. Primary factors contributing to these defects include an increased contact area between the metal and the mandrel at the rear end of the pipes, additional tensile stress in the metal, and non-uniform friction conditions at the contact surface between the metal and the mandrel.
