Ductile iron pipe is a kind of pipe made by centrifugal ductile iron machine with high speed after adding nodularizing agent to molten iron above 18#, also named iron pipe, or pipe for short. It has the nature of iron, the performance of steel, excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, and easy installation. It is mainly used in municipal industrial and mining enterprises for water supply, gas transmission, oil transportation, etc.

Ductile iron pipe's advantages in field adaptability, corrosion control, and pipe wall thickness make it far superior to steel pipe substitutes.
The advantages of ductile iron pipes can be summarized as follows:
1. High Strength: Ductile iron pipes have excellent mechanical properties, including high tensile strength, yield strength, and impact resistance. They can withstand high external loads and internal pressure, making them suitable for use in various applications.
2. Corrosion Resistance: Ductile iron pipes have good corrosion resistance, especially when coated with an appropriate protective layer. This makes them ideal for use in harsh environments, such as seawater, acidic or alkaline soils, and chemical plants.
3. Long Service Life: Ductile iron pipes have a long service life, with an expected lifespan of over 100 years. They are resistant to wear and tear, and their mechanical properties do not deteriorate over time.
4. Easy Installation: Ductile iron pipes are easy to install due to their lightweight and flexible nature. They can be easily cut and joined using various methods, such as flanged, grooved, or welded connections.
5. Low Maintenance: Ductile iron pipes require minimal maintenance, as they are resistant to corrosion, wear, and chemical attack. This reduces the overall cost of ownership and makes them a cost-effective solution for various applications.
Ductile iron pipe has been recognized as the industry standard for modern water and wastewater systems.

Transportation and Packaging Requirements for Ductile Iron Pipes
Transportation:
1. Ductile iron pipes should be transported by specialized vehicles with proper loading and unloading equipment.
2. During transportation, the pipes should be placed in a horizontal position and secured with proper restraints to prevent movement and damage.
3. Pipes should be handled with care to avoid any impact or damage to the exterior or interior surfaces.
4. The transportation vehicles should be covered to protect the pipes from weather and other external factors.
Packaging:
1. Ductile iron pipes should be packaged to protect them from damage during transportation and storage.
2. Pipes should be wrapped with suitable materials such as plastic or paper to prevent corrosion and damage to the exterior surface.
3. The ends of the pipes should be protected with suitable materials such as plastic caps to prevent damage to the interior surface.
4. Pipes should be stacked in a stable and secure manner with proper support to prevent deformation or damage.
5. The packaging should be clearly labeled with the product name, size, quantity, and other relevant information.
