In the oil drilling industry, the mud pump serves as the core power equipment of the drilling system, and the mud pump liner in its fluid end directly withstands the continuous impact of high-pressure, highly abrasive drilling fluid. The mud pump bi-metal liner is a common type, and a detailed analysis of its materials, working conditions, and other aspects is provided below: Ⅰ. Material Classification of Mud Pump Bi-Metal Liners 1.Ordinary Ductile Cast Iron：Ductile iron (QT450-10, QT600-3) Core Properties: Tensile strength of 450-600MPa, elongation≥3%, good toughness, low cost, and easy bonding with the wear-resistant layer. Applicable Scenarios: Medium-low pressure working conditions (pump pressure ≤25MPa), such as conventional onshore oil drilling and construction sand-gravel transportation. 2.High-Strength Alloy Steel：42CrMo, 35CrMnSi, 20CrNiMo Core Properties: Tensile strength ≥900MPa, yield strength≥750MPa, resistance to high pressure, impact, and high temperature (≤300℃). Applicable Scenarios: High-pressure/extreme load working conditions (pump pressure 25-60MPa), such as deep/ultra-deep well drilling and high-pressure coal chemical slurry pumps. 3.Corrosion-Resistant Alloy Steel：316L, 2205 duplex steel, Hastelloy C-276 Core Properties: Contains elements such as Cr, Ni, and Mo, resistant to corrosive media like Cl⁻ and H⁺, and resistant to salt spray, strong acids, and alkalis. Applicable Scenarios: Combined corrosion-abrasion working conditions, such as offshore oil drilling, chemical acidic slurry transportation, and shale gas oil-based drilling fluid scenarios. Ⅱ. Application Scenarios of Mud Pump Bi-Metal Liners in Oil Drilling 1.Basic Application Scenario - Conventional Onshore Oil Drilling Conventional onshore drilling is the most widespread application scenario for bi-metal liners, mainly adapted to triplex single action mud pumps (F type drilling mud pumps) on onshore drilling platforms. They are used to transport water-based drilling fluids containing conventional cuttings (e.g., sandstone and mudstone particles). Working Condition Characteristics：The drilling fluid pressure is usually 15-30MPa, and the hardness of cutting particles is relatively low (typically HV500-800). However, the operation cycle is long (1-3 months per well), so the liner must continuously withstand "particle erosion wear and reciprocating friction" while balancing cost and service life. Value of Bi-Metal Liners The base material is ductile iron or low-alloy steel, ensuring the liner does not crack or deform under medium pressure and is compatible with the regular installation and disassembly requirements of onshore mud pumps. The working layer is made of Cr20-Cr26 high-chromium cast iron with a hardness of HRC55-62, whose wear resistance is 2-3 times that of traditional gray cast iron liners. This extends the liner replacement cycle from 15-20 days to 40-60 days, reducing the frequency of shutdown maintenance for onshore drilling and lowering labor and accessory costs. Typical Applications: Drilling operations in vertical and directional sections of onshore oilfield development wells and exploration wells. 2. High-Load Application Scenario - Deep/Ultra-Deep Well Drilling As oil and gas exploration advances to deep formations (well depth >4500m for deep wells, >6000m for ultra-deep wells), mud pumps must withstand higher pressure and stronger impact. mud pump Bi-metal liners have become essential components for such high-load working conditions, mainly adapted to high-pressure triple-cylinder or five-cylinder mud pumps. Working Condition Characteristics Extremely high pump pressure: To penetrate deep, hard rock formations, the drilling fluid pressure needs to be increased to 30-50MPa. The liner must withstand continuous high-pressure alternating stress and is prone to cracking due to insufficient strength. Intense friction and impact: The reciprocating speed of the piston in deep wells is faster (usually 1.2-1.5m/s), leading to significant frictional heat accumulation between the liner and the piston. Additionally, deep well cuttings (e.g., granite, quartzite) have higher hardness, sharply increasing the risk of erosion wear. High operation risk: The cost of deep well drilling is extremely high . Liner failure will cause long-term shutdowns and huge economic losses. Value of Bi-Metal Liners Adopts a high-strength alloy steel base material (e.g., 42CrMo) combined with a tungsten carbide-reinforced wear-resistant layer. The base material has a tensile strength ≥900MPa, enabling it to resist pressures above 50MPa without cracking. The wear-resistant layer undergoes centrifugal compounding and quenching, increasing its hardness to HRC62-65. Its impact wear resistance is 30% higher than that of conventional bi-metal liners, and the liner service life can be stably maintained at 35-50 days, meeting the "long-cycle, low-risk" operation requirements of deep wells. Typical Applications: Shale gas deep wells and deep oil-gas reservoir exploration wells. 3. Corrosion-Resistant Application Scenario - Offshore Oil Drilling In addition to high-pressure abrasion, the mud pump liners on offshore drilling platforms must resist the dual corrosion of the marine environment. Bi-metal liners are the core solution for such scenarios. Working Condition Characteristics Severe corrosive environment: The marine air contains high concentrations of salt (Cl⁻), and seawater easily mixes into the drilling fluid to form saltwater drilling fluid, causing electrochemical corrosion to the liner. Strict space constraints: The equipment installation space on offshore platforms is compact, so the liner must have high reliability and long service life to reduce the difficulty of offshore hoisting and replacement . Volatile working conditions: Offshore drilling is affected by wind and waves, leading to instantaneous fluctuations in mud pump pressure. The liner must have a certain degree of impact toughness. Value of Bi-Metal Liners The working layer is made of high-chromium cast iron with a nickel-based alloy coating. The nickel-based alloy coating forms a dense oxide film on the inner wall of the liner, blocking the corrosive penetration of high-concentration salt and improving salt spray corrosion resistance by more than 50% compared with ordinary high-chromium cast iron. The base material is corrosion-resistant low-alloy steel (e.g., 316L stainless steel composite base material), preventing the outer wall of the liner from rusting due to marine moisture corrosion. The overall service life is extended to 50-70 days, significantly reducing offshore maintenance costs. Typical Applications: Oil and gas drilling operations on shallow-water fixed platforms and deep-water semi-submersible platforms . 4. Chemical Corrosion-Resistant Scenario - Drilling with Special Drilling Fluids When oil drilling uses oil-based drilling fluids, synthetic-based drilling fluids, or acidic drilling fluids, ordinary liners are prone to failure due to chemical corrosion. Bi-metal liners require targeted material formula optimization to adapt to such scenarios. Working Condition Characteristics Strong chemical corrosion: Oil-based drilling fluids contain mineral oil and emulsifiers, which easily decompose to produce acidic substances under long-term high temperatures (drilling fluid temperature up to 80-120℃), corroding the inner wall of the liner. Organic solvents in synthetic-based drilling fluids can soften the surface layer of ordinary metals. Synergistic abrasion-corrosion effect: Special drilling fluids are usually combined with high-specific-gravity weighting agents (e.g., barite powder, hardness HV800-1000). The liner must resist the combined damage of "chemical corrosion + particle abrasion," and its failure rate is 2-3 times faster than that under conventional working conditions. Value of Bi-Metal Liners The working layer adopts a "Hastelloy+wear-resistant ceramic particle composite layer." Hastelloy (e.g., Hastelloy C-276) has excellent resistance to oil, organic solvents, and acids, while ceramic particles (e.g., Al₂O₃) enhance wear resistance with a hardness of HRC65-70, capable of withstanding the erosion of weighting agents. The vacuum composite casting process ensures tight bonding between the working layer and the base material, avoiding interlayer peeling caused by chemical corrosion. The service life can be extended to 45-60 days, meeting the long-term operation requirements of special drilling fluids. Typical Applications: Shale gas horizontal wells (oil-based drilling fluids) and acidic oil-gas reservoir drilling (e.g., oil-gas wells containing H₂S and CO₂, requiring acid-resistant drilling fluids). Ⅲ. Advantages of Bi-Metal Liners Shortcomings of Single-Metal Liners:Ordinary cast iron liners have poor toughness and insufficient wear resistance; pure high-chromium cast iron liners, though wear-resistant (HRC55-62), have extremely high brittleness (impact strength <15MPa) and are prone to cracking under high pressure; ordinary steel liners have sufficient strength but their surfaces are easily grooved by particle erosion, resulting in short wear life. Advantages of Mud Pump Bi-Metal Liners:Base materials such as ductile iron and 42CrMo alloy steel provide sufficient tensile strength and toughness (elongation≥3%), ensuring the liner does not crack or deform under high-pressure (30-50MPa) and impact working conditions. Under conventional oil drilling conditions, the service life of bi-metal liners can reach 40-60 days, which is 2-3 times that of ordinary cast iron liners. Corrosion Shortcomings of Single-Metal Liners:Ordinary high-chromium cast iron liners rust within one month in the marine salt spray environment; pure stainless steel liners, though corrosion-resistant, have poor wear resistance and are prone to wear failure within 10 days in sand-containing mud. Advantages of Bi-Metal Liners:Corrosion-resistant alloy steels (e.g., 316L, 2205 duplex steel, Hastelloy) are used to form a dense oxide film on the surface, blocking the penetration of corrosive media such as Cl⁻ and H⁺. The working layer is combined with a ceramic coating (Al₂O₃) to further enhance surface corrosion resistance while maintaining high hardness to resist particle abrasion. In offshore oil drilling scenarios, the service life of bi-metal liners can reach 50-70 days, which is 2.5-3.5 times that of ordinary high-chromium cast iron liners, and liner leakage failures caused by corrosion are avoided. Ⅳ. Selection Guide Step 1: Clarify Your Own Working Conditions First, sort out the core working condition information, then select parameters accordingly to avoid blindly choosing high-priced products or low-priced but non-durable products: 1. Equipment Parameters: Pump model (e.g., F-1600 mud pump), working pressure (MPa), piston diameter (must match the liner inner diameter). 2. Medium Characteristics: Slurry type (e.g., drilling fluid, slag slurry), particle size (mm), corrosion (whether it contains acid/salt/organic solvents). 3. Operation Requirements: Expected liner service life, equipment shutdown cost. Step 2: Screen According to Working Conditions and Parameters Select key parameters based on the working conditions identified in Step 1: Onshore Oil Drilling: Inner diameter 150mm + high-chromium cast iron working layer (HRC58) + ductile iron base material. Offshore Oil Drilling: Inner diameter 180mm + nickel-based alloy working layer (HRC60) + 2205 duplex steel base material. Mining Slurry Pumps: Inner diameter 200mm + tungsten carbide working layer (HRC68) + 42CrMo base material. Chemical Acidic Slurry: Inner diameter 120mm + nickel-based alloy working layer (HRC58) + 316L base material. Step 3: Request 3 Types of Certification Documents Request written documents from suppliers to verify the authenticity of parameters: Material Certificate (MTC): Confirm the actual materials of the working layer and base material. Performance Test Report: Include test data on hardness (HRC), bonding strength, roughness, and roundness. Working Condition Cases: Request application cases from the same industry to confirm whether the service life meets requirements. Step 4: Balance Unit Price and Total Cost, Not Just Focus on Low Prices Example: The unit price of an ordinary high-chromium cast iron liner is approximately 280 US dollars, with a service life of 45 days, resulting in a unit time cost of roughly 6.22 US dollars/day. The unit price of a low-quality liner is around 210 US dollars, with a service life of 20 days, resulting in a unit time cost of 10.5 US dollars/day, which is actually more expensive. If the equipment shutdown cost is high, prioritize mid-to-high-end products with "low unit time cost" rather than simply pursuing low prices.  

The liners of mud pumps include bi-metal liners and ceramic liners, each having its own characteristics. Below, we will introduce these two types of liners in detail from the following aspects. Ⅰ. Bi-Metal Liners of Mud PumpsThe Bi-Metal liner is a cylinder liner composed of two different metallic materials and is widely applied in the industrial field. The following is a detailed introduction to it:Advantages Good Wear Resistance: Usually, the inner layer is made of high-hardness wear-resistant alloys, such as high-chromium cast iron. These materials have high hardness and can effectively withstand the erosion and wear of materials, making them suitable for use when transporting media containing solid particles. High Strength and Toughness: The outer layer of metal generally uses steel with higher strength, such as carbon steel, which provides good mechanical strength and toughness, enabling the cylinder liner to withstand greater pressure and impact loads. In some working conditions with complex situations and large impact forces, the Bi-Metal liner can ensure the normal operation of the equipment. Good Corrosion Resistance: The inner layer of some bi-metal liners uses metallic materials with better corrosion resistance, such as stainless steel. This allows the cylinder liner to resist the erosion of corrosive media like acids and alkalis to a certain extent, making it suitable for transporting liquids with a certain degree of corrosiveness. High Cost-effectiveness: Compared with some high-performance liners made of a single material (such as pure ceramic liners), the bi-metal liner reduces costs by reasonably combining two metallic materials while meeting certain performance requirements. For some projects that are sensitive to costs, the bi-metal liner is an economical and practical choice. Strong Repairability: During the use process, if the liner suffers from local wear or damage, since it is mainly composed of metallic materials, it can be repaired through metal processing techniques such as surfacing and repair welding. The repair cost is relatively low, and the operation is relatively simple, which can effectively extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the frequency of equipment replacement.Manufacturing Process Centrifugal Casting of the Inner Sleeve: Pour the molten high-chromium cast iron liquid into a high-speed rotating mold. Under the action of centrifugal force, the iron liquid adheres evenly to the inner wall of the mold, and after cooling, the inner sleeve is formed. This process can make the inner sleeve have a dense structure without shrinkage cavities, air holes, and other defects, ensuring the quality and performance of the inner sleeve. Hot Pressing Molding of the Outer Sleeve: Heat the high-quality carbon steel billet to an appropriate temperature, put it into the mold, and perform one-time hot pressing molding through a press to make the outer sleeve reach the required size and shape, obtaining good strength and toughness. Insertion and Assembly: Insert and assemble the processed inner sleeve and outer sleeve. Usually, an interference fit method is adopted to make the two combine closely to form an integral bi-metal liner to meet the usage requirements of the mud pump.Application Scenarios In the Petroleum Drilling Field: In onshore petroleum drilling, it is used for drilling operations in ordinary formations and can withstand conventional mud pressure and wear. On offshore petroleum drilling platforms, it can also meet the operation requirements to a certain extent, providing a reliable channel for the circulation and transportation of mud. Ⅱ. Ceramic Cylinder Liners of Mud PumpsCeramic liners are widely used in the industrial field. The following is a detailed introduction to them:Advantages High Wear Resistance: Ceramic materials have extremely high hardness. For example, alumina ceramics, zirconia ceramics, etc., have a Mohs hardness of about 9, second only to diamond. This enables the ceramic liner to effectively resist the wear caused by solid particles, fluid erosion, etc. In working conditions where highly abrasive media such as mineral slurries, coal powders, and sand and gravel are transported, it shows excellent wear resistance and greatly extends the service life of the equipment. Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Ceramics have good chemical stability and hardly react with chemical substances such as acids, alkalis, and salts. Therefore, the ceramic liner can remain stable in a strongly corrosive environment. Using a ceramic liner can effectively prevent the equipment from being corroded and ensure the safe and stable operation of production. Good High-temperature Resistance: Many ceramic materials have a high melting point and good thermal stability, and can maintain their physical and chemical properties in a high-temperature environment. Smooth Surface and Low Friction Coefficient: The surface of the ceramic liner is extremely smooth, and the friction coefficient is much lower than that of other materials such as metals. This significantly reduces the resistance when the fluid flows in the pipeline, not only improving the transportation efficiency but also reducing energy consumption. At the same time, the smooth surface also reduces the adhesion and accumulation of materials on the inner wall of the pipeline, which is beneficial to keeping the pipeline unobstructed.There are also mud pump ZTA liners and pure zirconia cylinder liners among ceramic cylinder liners. The following introduces the characteristics of these two types of ceramic cylinder liners. Ⅲ. ZTA Ceramic Cylinder LinersManufacturing Process Batching and Mixing: Accurately weigh raw materials such as alumina and zirconia in a certain proportion, add additives, and put them into a ball mill for uniform mixing to form a uniform green body. Molding: Use methods such as dry pressing molding and isostatic pressing molding to form the mixed raw materials into a green body of the required shape. Sintering: Put the green body into a high-temperature furnace for sintering. At a high temperature of 1600-1800°C, the raw materials undergo a solid-phase reaction to form a dense ZTA ceramic. Processing and Assembly: Cut, grind, polish, and perform other processing on the sintered ceramic to make it reach the required size and accuracy, and then use the vulcanization process to composite and assemble the ZTA ceramic with rubber, steel plates, etc.Advantages Compared with Other Cylinder LinersCompared with ordinary alumina ceramic liners, ZTA ceramic liners have better toughness and impact resistance and a longer service life. Compared with metallic liners, ZTA ceramic liners have higher hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, and can maintain good performance under harsh working conditions, reducing equipment maintenance and replacement costs. Ⅳ. Pure Zirconia Cylinder LinersIt refers to a liner mainly made of zirconia, and its zirconia content is usually above 95%. The following is a detailed introduction:Material Characteristics High Purity: The main component is zirconia, and the purity is generally above 95%. A small amount of stabilizers, such as yttria, may be added to improve its performance. High Density: It has a relatively high density, generally about 6.0 grams per cubic centimeter. Stable Chemical Properties: It has excellent chemical stability and can withstand the corrosion of various acids, alkalis, and other chemical substances.Performance Advantages Good Wear Resistance: It has excellent wear resistance and can effectively resist the erosion and wear of solid particles in the medium, extending the service life of the equipment. High Temperature Resistance: It can withstand a high temperature of up to 800°C and has good thermal stability. Strong Corrosion Resistance: It has excellent tolerance to various corrosive media and can maintain stable performance in a harsh chemical environment. Good Electrical Insulation: It has good electrical insulation performance and can be used in some occasions where electrical insulation is required.Manufacturing Process Raw Material Preparation: Select high-purity zirconia powder as the main raw material, and a small amount of additives can be added according to needs. Uniformly mix the raw materials through ball milling to prepare the required powder material. Processing: Cut, grind, polish, and perform other processing on the sintered zirconia cylinder liner to make its size and accuracy reach the required standards.Application Scenarios In Petroleum and Natural Gas Drilling: In the mud pumps for petroleum and natural gas drilling operations, it can withstand the erosion of high-pressure mud and solid particles.Cost and Service Life High Cost: Due to the high cost of raw materials and the complex manufacturing process, the production cost of pure zirconia liners is relatively high, and their price is also more expensive than that of some ordinary liners. Long Service Life: With its excellent performance, the service life of pure zirconia liners is relatively long. Ⅴ. Comparison between Ceramic Cylinder Liners and Bi-Metal Liners of Mud PumpsCeramic liners and metallic bi-metal liners of mud pumps each have their own advantages and applicable scenarios. The following is a comparative analysis from multiple aspects: 1.Wear Resistance Ceramic Cylinder Liners: Ceramic materials have extremely high hardness. For example, alumina ceramics, zirconia ceramics, etc., and their wear resistance is usually much better than that of metallic materials. Taking zirconia ceramics as an example, it can effectively resist the erosion and wear of solid particles in the mud. For mud containing a large number of sharp and high-hardness particles, the wear rate of the ceramic liner is very slow, and the service life is long. Bi-metal Cylinder Liners: Wear-resistant metallic materials such as high-chromium cast iron also have good wear resistance, but there is still a gap compared with ceramics. When transporting highly abrasive mud for a long time, the wear of the bi-metal liner is relatively fast, and the liner needs to be replaced more frequently, increasing the maintenance cost and downtime. 2.Corrosion Resistance Ceramic Cylinder Liners: Ceramics have good chemical stability and hardly react with chemical substances such as acids and alkalis. When transporting strongly corrosive mud, they can maintain the integrity and performance stability of the liner. Bi-metal Liners: Some bi-metal liners (such as duplex stainless white iron, etc.) have a certain degree of corrosion resistance, but in a strongly corrosive environment, the metal may still corrode, leading to the damage to the liner. Even metallic materials with better corrosion resistance are difficult to compare with ceramics in terms of corrosion resistance. 3. Strength and Toughness Mud Pumps with Ceramic Liners: The disadvantage of ceramic materials is that their toughness is relatively low and they are more brittle. When subjected to large impact loads, the ceramic liner may crack or even break. Although some ceramic toughening technologies have developed in recent years, the toughness of ceramics is still not as good as that of metals. In working conditions where the mud pump may encounter large impact forces, the reliability of the ceramic liner will be affected to a certain extent. Mud Pumps with Bi-Metal Liners: Metallic materials have good strength and toughness and can withstand large impacts and pressures. In some working conditions with complex situations and possible large impact forces, such as when the drilling mud pump works in an unstable formation, the bi-metal liner can better adapt to such working conditions and reduce the risk of damage caused by impacts. 4. Cost Ceramic Liners: Due to the relatively high price of ceramic materials themselves and the relatively complex manufacturing process, the initial purchase cost of mud pumps with ceramic liners is relatively high. In addition, due to the high requirements for the processing and installation of ceramic liners, the maintenance cost is also relatively high. Bi-Metal Liners: The manufacturing cost of bi-metal liners is relatively low, and the processing and maintenance technologies of metallic materials are relatively mature, and the maintenance cost is also low. 5.  Applicable Working Conditions Ceramic Liners: They are more suitable for use in working conditions with high abrasion, high corrosion, high requirements for the purity of the mud (ceramics are not likely to contaminate the mud), but with small impact loads. Bi-Metal Liners: They are suitable for working conditions with more complex situations, possible large impact loads, and where the requirements for wear resistance and corrosion resistance are not extremely high. 6.Service Life Bi-Metal Liners: Under normal working conditions, the service life is generally more than 800 hours. Zirconia Ceramic Liners: It has a relatively long service life, usually reaching more than 4,000 hours, which is several times that of the bimetallic cylinder liner. In conclusion, if the working conditions are mainly characterized by high abrasion and high corrosion with small impact loads, the ceramic liner is a better choice; while if the working conditions are complex, with large impact loads and a sensitivity to costs, the bi-metal liner is more appropriate.Cylinder liners for models like F1000 mud pump liner and F1600 mud pump liner are available in various materials.
