JCOE Pipe (Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welded Pipe) is a high-strength, large-diameter steel pipe produced using the JCOE (J-ing, C-ing, O-ing, Expanding) process. Renowned for its precision and robustness, JCOE pipes are widely used in gas transport, oil pipelines, hot-water pipes, potable water distribution, sewer piping, and construction projects, meeting standards like API 5L, ASTM A671, and GB/T3091-2008.

The JCOE process involves shaping steel plates through progressive pressing into J, C, and O forms, followed by double-sided submerged arc welding (SAW) and cold expansion to ensure dimensional accuracy and stress relief. Available in diameters from 16 to 72 inches (406–1829 mm) and wall thicknesses from 6.0 to 25.4 mm, JCOE pipes are designed for high-pressure and large-scale applications. Protective coatings like 3LPE or FBE enhance corrosion-resistant JCOE pipe performance in harsh environments.

JCOE pipes undergo rigorous testing, including ultrasonic, hydrostatic, and X-ray inspections, to ensure weld integrity and compliance with industry standards. The process’s flexibility supports both high-volume and small-batch production, making it cost-effective for diverse project requirements, from urban water systems to offshore oil pipelines.

Compared to UOE or SSAW pipes, JCOE pipes offer a balance of cost-efficiency and high-quality welds, making them ideal for medium to large-scale infrastructure projects. Their uniform deformation and robust construction ensure reliability in demanding applications like gas transport and sewer systems.

JCOE pipes address challenges such as corrosion, high pressure, and structural demands, providing engineers with dependable large-diameter JCOE pipe solutions for critical infrastructure, ensuring safety and longevity.

JCOE Manufacturing Technology

Developed in the 1990s, JCOE is a pipe forming process that shapes large-diameter longitudinal steel pipes through a progressive J-C-O molding sequence. It involves pre-bending the steel plate edges, followed by J-ing, C-ing, and O-ing stages, using three-point bending principles. The process requires addressing challenges like die shape, stroke distance, and press pass optimization to achieve the ideal bend radius and pipe opening. Currently, a trial-and-error method is used to determine parameters, which can be time-consuming and may not fully optimize unit capacity. Research into theoretical formulas and process factors aims to reduce trial costs, shorten development time, and enhance productivity.
