API 5l steel pipe needs to be stored correctly. Foundation and wooden separators need to be fixed properly to avoid the injuries caused by falling pipes. While storing steel pipes, you should not only take the safety factors into consideration, but also think about how to protect the pipes from thieves. By gathering API steel pipes as an unit, number of round pipes will form an solid block which is much easier to transfer and lift by diverse lifting machineries.
Step 1
Construct a foundation at the position where you plan to store the pipes. 4x4 wood pieces can keep API steel pipes off the ground. While you are trying to remove the pipes, it is much easier to drive the lifting machines to handle the pipes off the ground.
Step 2
Try to apply the first layer of steel pipes on the 4x4s. The end of pipes should be even. It is recommended to limit the width of pile within 6 feet. Wider pile is too hard to be lift by machines. Then you can tile the second layer of 2x4s steel pipes. Keep the ends of second layer even with the first layer. Voice of experience is that the pipes stored in the same pile should be same in size.
Step 3
The next step is the repetition of the steps mentioned above. While the pile has achieved the desired height, it is time to accumulate the pipes as an unit. Thee metal strapping is used to surround the pile and to tighten the strapping, tensioner or sealer can be used. The instruction associated with the strapping can help to make better work. While you have finally hold the pile as a unit, you need to make sure that it it strong enough that it will not break apart easily.
