Stainless Steel Pipes Introduction
Stainless steel tubing is one of the most versatile metal alloy materials used in
manufacturing and fabrication. The two common types of tubing are
seamless and welded. Choosing between welded vs. seamless tubing
primarily depends on the application requirements of the product.
In choosing between the two keep in mind that first the tubing must
be compliant with your project specifications and that secondly, it
must meet the conditions for which the tubing will ultimately be
used.
Welded pipe, also known as welded steel pipe, is basically a steel
pipe made of steel plate or strip steel after crimping and welding.
Welded steel pipe has a simple production process, high production
efficiency, many varieties and specifications, and less equipment,
but its general strength is lower than that of seamless steel
pipes. Since the 1930s, with the rapid development of high-quality
strip steel continuous rolling production and the advancement of
welding and inspection technology, the quality of welds has been
continuously improved, the varieties and specifications of welded
steel pipes have been increasing, and more and more fields have
replaced non-ferrous steel. Seam steel pipe. Welded steel pipes are
divided into straight seam welded pipes and spiral welded pipes
according to the form of the weld.
Welded Tubing Manufacturing
A welded stainless steel tube is produced through roll forming
strips or sheets of stainless steel into a tube shape and then
welding the seam longitudinally. Welded tubing can be accomplished
either by hot forming and cold forming processes. Of the two, cold
forming results in smoother finishes and tighter tolerances.
However, each method creates a durable, strong, steel tube that
resists corrosion. The seam can be left beaded or it can be further
worked by cold rolling and forging methods. The welded tube can
also be drawn similar to seamless tubing to produce a finer weld
seam with better surface finishes and tighter tolerances.
Welded Tubing
Welded tubing is generally less expensive than seamless tubing due
to the simpler manufacturing process in creating welded tubing. It
is also readily available, like seamless tubing, in long continuous
lengths. Standard sizes can be produced with similar lead times for
both welded and seamless tubing. Seamless tubing costs can be
offset in smaller manufacturing runs if less quantity is required.
Otherwise, though custom-sized seamless tubing can be produced and
delivered more quickly, it is more costly.
