Corrosion-resistant Alloy Clad Pipe
Metallurgically bonded composite pipe combining carbon steel strength with thin cra inner layer for superior corrosion resistance in oil & gas, subsea, sour service, and co₂ pipelines.
CRA-Clad Pipe (Corrosion-Resistant Alloy Clad Pipe) is a bimetallic composite pipe where a thin layer of corrosion-resistant alloy (CRA) is metallurgically bonded to the inner surface of a carbon steel or low-alloy steel base pipe. This design delivers the corrosion resistance of expensive CRA materials on the wetted surface while using economical carbon steel for structural strength and pressure containment.
The metallurgical bond (atomic diffusion) ensures a permanent, high-strength interface that withstands pressure, thermal cycling, and mechanical stress without delamination.
Primary standard: API 5LD (Specification for CRA Clad or Lined Steel Pipe)
| Method | Bonding Process | CRA Thickness | Advantages | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Explosion Clad | Explosive energy diffusion bond | 2–5 mm | Extremely strong bond, large diameters | Offshore, high-pressure |
| Roll Bonded Clad | Hot rolling of CRA + carbon plates | 2–5 mm | Uniform bond, good for plates/pipes | General line pipe |
| Weld Overlay Clad | Weld deposition (GMAW/SAW) | Variable | Flexible for repairs/fittings | Vessels, fittings, repairs |
| Hot Isostatic Press (HIP) | High-pressure sintering | 2–5 mm | Excellent bond quality | High-reliability applications |

The low carbon content in 304L and 316L enhances weldability, while molybdenum in 316 and 316L improves resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, making CRA-clad pipe ideal for harsh environments.
| Grade | Tensile Strength (min, MPa) | Yield Strength (min, MPa) | Elongation (min, %) | Hardness (max, HB) | Hardness (max, HRB) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| 316L | 485 | 170 | 40 | 217 | 95 |
These mechanical properties make CRA-clad pipe suitable for applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance, such as architectural structures, marine environments, and chemical processing.
In order to solve the cumbersome and difficult to remember stainless steel grades, improve the practicability of the brand representation, and the contrast with the international standard grades, China has formulated the "Universal Code System for Steel and Alloy Grades", such as 06Cr19Ni10, corresponding to 304. Different grades of stainless steel have different ingredients, but they all have a national standard. The standards of each country are also different.
