Hydraulic Line High Pressure Capillary Tubing AISI SS316L Encapsulated Control Line

1 / 4 '' OD x 0.065 '' WT Hydraulic Line Capillary Tubing String Made From AISI SS316L

Meilong Tube specially manufactures seamless and redrawn, welded and redrawn coiled tubing hydraulic line which are made from corrosion-resistant austenitic, duplex, super duplex stainless steels and nickel alloy grades. The tubing is used as hydraulic control lines and chemical injection lines specially serving oil and gas, geothermal industry.

Typical size of Hydraulic Line

Outside diameter of hydraulic lines is mainly 1/4’’ (6.35mm), 3/8'' (9.53mm)

Wall thicknesses: 0.035’’ (0.89mm), 0.049’’ (1.24mm), 0.065’’ (1.65mm), 0.083'' (2.11mm)

Control line tubing is available in lengths from 400 feet (122 meters) to 32,808 feet (10,000 meters). No orbitally butt welds.

Other specifications (1/8’’ to 3/4’’) are available on request.

Importance of Hydraulic Line

Each one tubing coil is a completely continuous length without orbital welds.

Each one hydraulic line in form of tubing coil is hydrostatic tested at minimum 15,000 psi.

The test can be witnessed on site by the third party inspectors (SGS, BV, DNV).

Other tests are eddy current test, chemicals, flattening, flaring, tensile, yield, elongation, hardness for the material quality.

Application Description for Hydraulic Line

In all fields of the oil and gas industry, chemicals are injected into process lines and fluids. Take oilfield services, chemicals are used to film the side of the wellbore for improved stability. In pipelines they avoid build-up and keep the infrastructure healthy.

The Role of Hydraulic Line

In the oil and gas industry we inject chemicals in order

to protect the infrastructure

to optimize processes

to assure flow

and to improve productivity

AISI 316L for Hydraulic Line

Standard Equivalence

AISI 316L is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel with molybdenum and a low carbon content.

Corrosion Resistance

Organic acids at high concentrations and moderate temperatures

Inorganic acids, e.g. phosphoric and sulphuric acids, at moderate concentrations and temperatures. The steel can also be used in sulphuric acid of concentrations above 90% at low temperature.

Salt solutions, e.g. sulphates, sulphides and sulphites

Caustic environments

Austenitic steels are susceptible to stress corrosion cracking. This may occur at temperatures above about 60°C (140°F) if the steel is subjected to tensile stresses and at the same time comes into contact with certain solutions, particularly those containing chlorides. Such service conditions should therefore be avoided. Conditions when plants are shut down must also be considered, as the condensates which are then formed can develop conditions that lead to both stress corrosion cracking and pitting.

AISI 316L has a low carbon content and therefore better resistance to intergranular corrosion than steels of type AISI 316.

Tubing Process and Packing

Seamless- pierced, redrawn, annealed (multi-pass circulation process)

Welded- longitudinally welded, redrawn, annealed (multi-pass circulation process)

Packing- Hydraulic Line Tubing is level wound coiled on the metal / wooden drums or spools.

All drums or spools are packed in wooden crates for easy logistic operation.

Meilong Tube manufactures high quality seamless and redrawn, seam-welded and redrawn coiled tubing which are made from corrosion-resistant austenitic, duplex, super duplex stainless steel and nickel alloy grades. 100% of products are used as hydraulic power control lines, chemical injection lines, alloy tubing in umbilicals and instrumentation tubing for the exploitation engineering in the upstream oil and gas industry.

Coiled tubing is available in sizes arrange from outer diameter 0.125 inch (3.175 millimeters) to 1 inch (25.4 millimeters). Wall thickness is up to 0.083 inch (2.108 millimeters). Lengths up to 65600 feet (20,000 meters) are available for cost-effective umbilical manufacturing. More sizes within the scope can be customized to be produced and delivered for meeting your special requirements.

As more oil and gas extractions move into deeper and harsher waters where extreme offshore environments demand extreme safety, our work is to help you use the “right” corrosion resistant material for coiled umbilical tubing to improve the safety and reliability of your work. This is the power for driving our innovations and continuous development.

Now Meilong Tube is devoting its capability to bring global customers most cost-effective tubing products through ensuring a comprehensive supply guarantee regarding the complete value-added chain in tubing production and is herewith the basis for the high performance in products and customer satisfaction.
