Cast basalt lined lateral is composed of steel pipe tee, cast basalt pipe and cement mortar concrete. Cast basalt lined lateral is used too many industrial areas where the abrasive, chemical and hot materials transported and which are commonly lined steel elbows. At the same time cement mortar is selected as the filling material and this can make the inside surface of steel pipe in alkali mediums. So the surface of steel pipe generates purifying films These films can prevent being rusted.
Cast basalt pipe can be divided into straight pipe, elbow, three-way (four-way) pipe and variable diameter pipe, etc.

Basalt is a dark, dense-looking rock, often with small porphyritic crystals, and weathering to a brown colour on exposed surfaces. It is the commonest of all lavas, the basalt flows of the world being estimated to have five times the volume of all other extrusive rocks together. Basalt also forms small intrusions.
Basalt casts are considered the best lining materials for industries dealing with abrasion resistance.

The excellent performance of cast basalt lined steel pipe is that it sets tenacity of steel pipe, abrasive resistance of cast basalt pipe, concreteness of cement mortar in one.
This greatly improves the products adaptive capacity in complicated operation conditions. At the same time. Cement mortar is selected as the filling material and this can make the inside surface of steel pipe in alkali mediums. So the surface of steel pipe generates purifying films. These films can prevent being rusted.
