Through special pipe bending equipment, the red copper pipe is bent at room temperature. This process can well maintain the original properties of the red copper and is suitable for red copper U-bends with smaller pipe diameters and mass production.
For red copper U-bends with larger pipe diameters or higher requirements for bending accuracy, the hot bending process is usually adopted. First, the red copper pipe is heated to make it have a certain plasticity, and then it is bent and formed on the mold. The U-bend after hot bending has good shape accuracy and mechanical properties.
The U-shaped structure forms a liquid seal effect, effectively preventing refrigerant leakage.
The U-shaped pipe mainly plays the important functions of draining water, preventing odor, and protecting equipment.
The U-shaped pipe is mainly used for cable protection and temperature control.
In some industrial production processes, such as in the chemical industry and food processing industry, the red copper U-bend can be used to transport various liquid or gas media to meet the requirements of the production process.
