The Ceramic tile lined pipe spool is composed by steel pipe, adhensive and abrasion-resistant ceramic, we use 20 # seamless steel pipes shaping with hot bending (it is different from centrifugal casting or steel plate rolling), the ceramic tiles bonding with GWJ-350 high temperature-resistant inorganic adhesive which was developed by TsingHua University and affix abrasion-resistant ceramic in the steel pipes, we use miss match installation instead of directly bonding (this technology was used in the bridge building a thousand years ago), and forms a firm wear-resistance layer after heating solidification. Ceramic tile lined pipe spool is applicable for the pneumatic powder-feeding, and can be used under a temperature of 350℃without aging and peeling for long life. The service life is 4-5 times than the normal abrasion-resistant pipes.
Alumina ceramic-lined bend pipes are engineered to transport pulverized coal powder efficiently. The integration of high-hardness alumina ceramics with durable steel provides exceptional wear resistance, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for industries such as power generation, metallurgy, mining, and chemicals.
Our alumina ceramic lined project consists of alumina ceramic tiles affixed to a natural rubber base mold with high tensile strength, securely mounted on a steel plate.
These ceramic-lined products serve as cost-effective alternatives to expensive materials such as stainless steel, titanium, nickel, cast stone, or alloy tools. The unique combination of the high rigidity of ceramics and the elasticity of steel results in a heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant material, making it widely applicable in various industries, including power generation, metallurgy, mining, and the chemical industry.
There are many clients who are concerned about the specification of ceramic lined tile sheet, because it is related to whether the ceramic chip purchased can be used.
Main performance indicators: The wear resistance of the ceramic work surface is more than 100 times that of manganese steel, 20 times that of high chromium cast iron, and several times to several dozen times higher than that of wear resistant rubber. Ceramic metal bonding strength up to 300kg/cm2 can be used up to 500°C.
The use of equipment made of wear-resistant ceramics, the service life can be increased by more than five times, and the performance-cost ratio can be increased by more than three times.
Wear resistant ceramic lining is AL203 as the main material, with rare metal oxide as solvent, after more than 1700°C high temperature roasting to special ceramic, embedded into rubber , polyurethane or mild steel for the purpose of low to moderate impact and highly abrasive sliding application.
The abrasion pipe of thermal power plant is mainly conveying raw coal powder, ash slag, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) limestone powder and slurry, due to the transmission of medium velocity fast, poor operating conditions, resulting in pipelines, especially elbow, variable diameter pipe serious wear and corrosion, not only consumes a lot of metal materials, but also to the thermal power plant security, economic operation has brought hidden dangers. The abrasion mechanism of pipeline is mainly based on erosion wear. Wear-resistant pipe can be divided into two categories: single metal pipe and composite pipe.
The lined ceramic double-flanged limited expansion joint is created by adhering alumina ceramic tiles to the inner wall of the pipe using a high-temperature adhesive.
After heating and curing, it forms a robust anti-wear layer. This type of product has a relatively simple manufacturing process, a short production cycle, and lower costs.
Technical Specifications: SunnySteel offers various models of ceramic lined wear-resistant pipes and can also customize production as per requirements. Ceramic lined wear-resistant pipes are essentially not restricted by pipe size, and they can be produced for diameters ranging from 1 inch to 120 inches or even larger.
It is important to note that expansion joints are not limited to ceramic tiles alone. They are also used in other applications, such as in pipework systems and ducts, where ceramic lined pipe expansion joints are designed to absorb dimensional changes caused by heat-induced expansion.
When installing ceramic tiles, it is crucial to consider the proper placement of expansion joints. Guidelines suggest that grout lines must be wide and proportional to the size of the tiles, and expansion joints in the tiling must also be calculated accordingly.
Ceramic tile lined expansion joints are used to accommodate the movement and expansion of ceramic tile surfaces, preventing cracks and damage. They can be installed in various ways, such as creating gaps between tiles or toothed around the tiles in an offset-bond pattern.

Example of a screw lining with alumina ceramic mosaic size 20x20x4 mm throughout an overall length of nearly 5 m. Bonded by means of a 2-component special adhesive.
After heating and curing, it forms a robust anti-wear layer. This type of product has a relatively simple manufacturing process, a short production cycle, and lower costs.
Steel-shell composite pipes with high-alumina ceramic tile lining for extreme wear conditions.
Ceramic tile lined pipe is a composite product developed by integrating advanced domestic and international technologies. It consists of a steel outer shell and an inner lining of high-alumina ceramic tiles, delivering exceptional wear resistance and long service life.
Anti-dislodgement ceramic tiles are precisely positioned and bonded with a high-strength inorganic adhesive, then further secured by wear-resistant steel stud welding. This dual-reinforcement method ensures that the ceramic tiles remain firmly attached under severe operating conditions. The product offers flexible installation, excellent wear performance, convenient fabrication and moderate cost.
High-alumina ceramics achieve a Rockwell hardness of HRA 80–90, second only to diamond and far superior to wear-resistant steel and stainless steel.
The wear resistance of high-alumina ceramics is approximately 266 times that of manganese steel and 171.5 times that of high-chromium cast iron. Field investigations and customer feedback confirm that equipment service life can be extended by more than 10 times under identical operating conditions.
High-alumina ceramics are inorganic oxides with an extremely stable molecular structure and no electrochemical corrosion mechanism. They resist attack from acids, alkalis, salt solutions and organic solvents, making them suitable for chemically aggressive environments.
High-alumina ceramic linings can operate continuously at temperatures up to 1,400°C, making them suitable for high-temperature flue gas, ash handling and furnace applications.
High-alumina ceramics exhibit excellent self-lubricating properties and low surface adhesion. The surface roughness is only 1/6 that of steel pipes, resulting in significantly lower flow resistance and reduced material buildup.
The density of high-alumina ceramics is approximately 3.6 g/cm³, about half that of steel. This significantly reduces the overall weight of the piping system, making transportation, handling and installation easier and more cost-effective.
Three-layer composite piping system combining structural steel, high-alumina ceramic lining and engineered bonding technology.
Ceramic tile lined pipe is a composite product consisting of three layers: an outer steel pipe, a high-strength inorganic adhesive layer, and an inner high-alumina ceramic lining. The ceramic layer typically exhibits a white appearance and is manufactured from ≥95% alumina (Al₂O₃) ceramic. Standard service temperature is below 200°C.
Commonly used ceramic lining configurations include ceramic blocks, dovetail-interlocked tiles, welded-stud-fixed tiles, mosaic layouts and grooved locking systems. These designs deliver excellent wear resistance and significantly extend equipment service life in abrasive environments.
The ceramic tile is pasted on the steel pipe with high temperature wear-resistant glue to play a wear-resistant role, and the pipe is generally white. Generally used for large diameter pipes.
Bends and other profile sections can be clad in whole and this process has changed the traditional practice to fabricate bend and other profile sections by drawing polyline without changing flow pattern of material inside piping, greatly reducing conveyance resistance of material.
The ceramic tiles are pasted to the inner wall of the steel pipe with high temperature wear-resistant glue to play a wear-resistant role.
