Straight Welded Seam Steel Pipe

For industrial applications demanding reliability and cost-effectiveness, the Straight Seam Welded Steel Tube is a fundamental component. This category of pipe, manufactured by forming steel and welding along its single longitudinal seam, offers superior performance for fluid and gas transport, structural frameworks, and various mechanical applications. The ERW Longitudinal Welded Pipe, a primary type within this family, utilizes the Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) process to create a strong, homogeneous bond without the use of filler materials. This efficient production method results in a product known for its excellent dimensional accuracy and consistent wall thickness. Often referred to as a Longitudinal Seam Welded Tube, its defining characteristic is the straight weld line running parallel to its axis, which distinguishes it from spirally welded alternatives. The integrity of an Electric Resistance Welded Straight Pipe is rigorously tested, ensuring it meets high standards for pressure containment and structural support across diverse industries, from construction and fencing to oil and gas conveyance.


The manufacturing excellence of the <产品名字> is reflected in its precise technical specifications, which are critical for engineering and procurement decisions. Key parameters include outer diameter (OD), wall thickness (WT), length, and the specific grade of steel used, each tailored to the pipe's intended service environment. The following tables outline standard specifications for common applications.

Beyond the core dimensions and materials, several other critical parameters define the performance envelope of these pipes. Surface finish is typically a smooth, mill finish, but options like black, galvanized, or painted coatings are available for enhanced corrosion resistance. Tolerances for straightness, ovality, and wall thickness are strictly controlled per the governing ASTM, API, or EN standards. The welding process is subject to non-destructive testing (NDT), such as ultrasonic or eddy current testing, to ensure seam integrity. Hydrostatic testing is commonly performed to verify pressure ratings, often specified as a minimum test pressure (e.g., 1000 psi for certain schedules). End treatments, including plain end, beveled end for welding, or threaded and coupled, are offered based on installation requirements. Chemical composition, particularly carbon, manganese, and sulfur content, is carefully managed to achieve the desired balance of strength, weldability, and formability for the target grade.

  • Galvanized Cold-Rolled Seamless Steel Pipe

    Galvanized Cold-Rolled Seamless Steel Pipe

    Xinlida's China Galvanized Cold-Rolled Seamless Steel Pipe is a seamless steel pipe produced by the cold-rolling process. Compared with hot-rolled steel pipes, the cold-rolling process endows it with higher precision and better surface quality. The wall thickness of its pipes is uniform and the dimensional accuracy is high. Generally, the outer diameter tolerance is controlled within ±0.1mm, and the wall thickness tolerance is about ±0.05mm. It can meet the demands of high-precision processing. Meanwhile, the surface of cold-rolled seamless steel pipes is smooth, which reduces the resistance of fluid flow in the pipeline and improves the transportation efficiency. They are widely used in industries such as petroleum, natural gas, chemical engineering, boilers, and mechanical manufacturing.
