Heavy-Duty Cast Pipe Made with Rare Earth Alloy for Extreme Wear, Impact, and Corrosion Resistance in Industrial Applications

The Rare Earth Alloy Wear Resisting Casting Pipe is a robust, high-performance solution for industrial environments where intense wear, erosion, and thermal shock are common. Cast using advanced alloy steel infused with rare earth elements—such as cerium, lanthanum, and neodymium—this pipe delivers enhanced mechanical strength, refined grain structure, and improved service life in abrasive material transport systems.

The alloy composition typically includes high levels of chromium, molybdenum, manganese, and nickel, resulting in superior hardness (HB 240–320), impact resistance, and corrosion protection. These properties make the pipe suitable for transporting high-velocity slurries, fly ash, coal, mineral ore, clinker, and other abrasive media.

This casting pipe is widely used in:

Coal-fired power plants (ash handling, pulverized coal transport)
Mining operations (slurry pipelines, tailings)
Cement and aggregate plants (dust and clinker conveying)
Steel production (slag and residue transfer)

The pipe’s seamless cast structure ensures uniform wall thickness and excellent pressure resistance. The inner wall can be precision-machined or heat-treated for better flow efficiency and resistance to scaling or buildup.

Also known as rare earth alloy wear pipe, abrasion-resistant casting tube, or high-strength alloy cast pipe, this product dramatically extends pipeline life, reduces maintenance frequency, and minimizes system downtime in aggressive processing environments.

Sunny Steel offers a full range of diameters, wall thicknesses, lengths, and connection types (flanged, grooved, welded) for rare earth alloy wear resisting casting pipes, along with material certification, design consultation, and international logistics support.

Material

Ceramic-lined pipes are known for their high hardness, wear resistance, thermal stability, and self-lubricating performance. Made from rare earth alloy steel and high-purity alumina ceramics, they offer superior performance in abrasive and high-temperature environments.

Ceramic-lined pipes are reinforced with anti-shedding alumina tiles, strong inorganic adhesives, and precision welding. This dual-layer structure ensures long-term performance under high-stress, corrosive, and abrasive conditions.

These pipes are designed for flexible installation, low maintenance, and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for use in mining, thermal power plants, steelworks, and chemical industries.

PMI Test

High Hardness

Rockwell hardness of alumina ceramics reaches HRA80–90, second only to diamond and much higher than wear-resistant steel.

Alumina ceramics provide 266× the wear life of manganese steel and over 170× that of high chromium cast iron.

Thermal Stability

Withstands continuous service temperatures up to 1400°C, making it suitable for furnaces and kilns.

Low Friction

Smooth surface reduces flow resistance; surface roughness is 1/6 that of steel pipes.

Custom Shapes

Supports thick-walled, curved, and shaped designs to match various piping systems and wear zones.

Lightweight

With a density of ~3.6g/cm³, alumina ceramic pipes weigh half as much as steel, improving transport and installation efficiency.

ZG40CrMnMoNiSiRe Alloy Steel

This rare earth alloy steel contains chromium, molybdenum, nickel, and rare earth elements to enhance strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance.

Commonly used in boiler tubes, heat exchangers, and high-pressure pipelines, it withstands creep, corrosion, and thermal cycling in extreme service conditions.

While offering excellent performance, its specialized composition makes it better suited for heavy-duty applications rather than general use.

Features

Rare earth alloy wear-resistant pipes are used in pneumatic systems, slurry pumping, and other material conveying pipelines. They are characterized by high flow rates and excellent wear resistance.

Under the same working conditions, rare earth alloy exhibits only about one-third the wear of high manganese steel, with a service life that is 2 to 3 times longer.

Due to its R-alpha carbide structure and the high chromium content in the matrix, the alloy shows outstanding resistance to heat and corrosion. The addition of molybdenum further enhances performance in high-temperature or corrosive environments. Rare earth elements form a compact inner structure and a surface protective film that prevents carbon penetration. Boron increases hardness to levels unattainable through carburizing. The addition of manganese enhances fatigue resistance, making this alloy superior to both high-chromium and conventional rare earth alloys.

Rare earth alloy pipes with high hardness allow for easy cutting, handling, installation, and maintenance.
Elbows and branch pipes can be connected to seamless steel pipes, and flange connections ensure reliable assembly and easy disassembly.
Good weldability allows direct butt-welding with low carbon steel, making the pipes suitable for various environments and installation conditions.

Rare earth alloy casting pipes can withstand pressures up to 6 kg/cm². For elbows made with high-quality steel plates and hot-pressed forming, operating under pressures exceeding 10 kg/cm² is no problem. These pipes prevent air leakage and material deviation, ensuring safety and reliability in high-pressure systems.

Rare earth alloy components can be used in applications where bimetallic materials are unsuitable, such as coal grinding, pulverizing, ash removal, and slag discharge in power plants. Components like dredge scrapers, coal mixers, and spiral pipes benefit from the material’s superior wear resistance, simplifying operation and maintenance.

Using centrifugal casting, resin sand molding, and an advanced EPC vacuum suction casting process, the alloy parts are manufactured with high dimensional accuracy and consistent internal structure. The process ensures stable performance, especially for complex components like spiral pipes, coal mixers, fork joints, hoppers, and cones.

The primary limitation of rare earth alloy wear-resistant pipes is relatively low impact resistance. Careful handling is required during transportation and installation.
