Metal Jacketed Pipe Sections

Metal Jacketed Pipe Sections

Bhanu Scientific Glass Co. provides high-quality metal jacketed glass pipe sections designed for robust thermal control in chemical, pharmaceutical, and industrial process applications. These components combine the chemical resistance of borosilicate glass with the mechanical durability of metal jackets, ensuring safe operation under vacuum, pressure, and high-temperature conditions.

Overview of Metal Jacketed Pipe Sections

Metal jacketed pipe sections are borosilicate glass inner pipelines enclosed in a metallic jacket. The jacket allows circulation of heating or cooling media (steam, water, or thermal oil), providing uniform thermal regulation for the fluid inside the glass. The metal jacket enhances mechanical strength, impact resistance, and safety, making these pipe sections ideal for heavy-duty industrial setups.

Key Features:

• Inner Material: Borosilicate glass 3.3 for chemical inertness
• Outer Jacket: Stainless steel or alloy metal for mechanical protection
• Dual-Wall Design: Inner process flow and outer metal jacket channel
• Temperature Control: Jacket supports steam, hot/cold water, or thermal oil circulation
• Nominal Diameters (DN): Standard DN 15–800, custom sizes available
• Pressure & Vacuum Rating: Designed for full vacuum, mild positive pressure, and safe thermal expansion
• Customizability: Port placement, jacket inlet/outlet, pipe length, and fittings tailored per requirement
• Maintenance Friendly: Metal jacket protects glass from mechanical stress without compromising visibility

Applications

• Chemical and pharmaceutical fluid transport with thermal control
• Pilot plant and industrial process pipelines
