Types of Welded Steel Pipe in China

2023-05-13


Q: What are the different types of welded steel pipes available in China?
A: There are several types of welded steel pipes available in China including:
1. ERW (Electric Resistance Welding) Steel Pipe: This type of pipe is made by rolling a steel plate into a pipe shape and welding the edges together using an electric current. ERW pipes are widely used in construction, oil and gas transportation, and other industries.
2. LSAW (Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welding) Steel Pipe: LSAW pipes are made by bending a steel plate into a U-shape and then welding the edges together using a submerged arc welding process. LSAW pipes are commonly used for oil and gas transportation, as well as in construction.
3. SSAW (Spiral Submerged Arc Welding) Steel Pipe: This type of pipe is made by forming a spiral shape from a steel plate and then welding the edges together using a submerged arc welding process. SSAW pipes are used in a variety of applications including water and gas transportation, and in the construction industry.
4. Galvanized Steel Pipe: Galvanized pipes are made by coating a steel pipe with a layer of zinc to prevent corrosion. Galvanized pipes are commonly used in plumbing and water supply systems.
5. Square and Rectangular Steel Pipe: These types of pipes are made by rolling a steel plate into a square or rectangular shape and welding the edges together. Square and rectangular steel pipes are used in construction and other industries.
In addition to these types of welded steel pipes, there are also specialty pipes available in China such as heat exchanger tubes, boiler tubes, and hydraulic cylinder tubes.
