GB 28883 composite seamless steel tubes are pressure-bearing bimetallic seamless tubes designed for boilers, pressure vessels, and pressure piping where the tube must combine mechanical strength from the base metal with corrosion resistance from the cladding metal. The standard defines the tube as a composite structure made from different inner and outer steel grades, with ordering based on “outer grade + inner grade” and wall thickness shown as “base layer + cladding layer.” The standard scope covers dimensions, tolerances, technical requirements, testing, inspection, marking, packaging, and quality certificates for pressure service.

| Heat Treatment | Supplied in heat-treated condition; heat treatment process recorded in the quality certificate |
| Pressure Test | Hydrostatic test on each tube; maximum test pressure 20 MPa; holding time ≥10 s; no leakage permitted |
| Buyer Concern | Our Solution |
|---|---|
| Bonding failure or delamination during bending, flattening, or pressure service | We control the base/cladding interface and support shear strength testing. For metallurgical fusion composite tubes, bonding shear strength can be supplied to ≥210 MPa, or ≥260 MPa when specified by the purchaser. Flattening inspection can verify no visible delamination or cracking. |
| Pressure safety and leakage risk | Each tube can be supplied with hydrostatic testing according to GB 28883, with maximum test pressure up to 20 MPa, holding time ≥10 s, and no leakage permitted. Eddy-current testing may be used as an agreed alternative for metallurgical fusion composite tubes. |
| Corrosion resistance of the cladding layer | Stainless, duplex stainless, or corrosion-resistant alloy cladding grades are available. The cladding layer can be tested for intergranular corrosion according to GB/T 4334-2008 Method E, helping confirm suitability for corrosive fluid contact. |

| GOST | GOST 9941 / related pressure tube standards, by agreement | Seamless corrosion-resistant steel tube reference for CIS-market documentation |
Application: waste heat boiler evaporator tube for sulfur-containing chemical process gas.
This application needs a pressure-bearing base layer for boiler service and a corrosion-resistant cladding layer on the fluid-contact side to reduce corrosion risk from aggressive process media.
