Which of the manufacturing method is recommended diesel engine fuel injection line piping?


Ans. Seamless drawn pipes.

The diesel engine fuel injection piping is subjected to very high pressure, in the range of about 1200bar. Also, there is sudden increase and decrease of pressure which causes the fatigue in the material. Taking into consideration these two things it is necessary that the material and the manufacturing process of the piping should be such that it should be able to withstand the high pressure and fatigue. It is also of prime importance, from the point of view of safety of the ship and fire hazard, that the fuel pipe should not get cracked under these high pressures. In order to achieve these requirements, it is necessary to use fuel pump pipes made up of seamless, solid drawn tubes.
