The difference between seamless steel pipe and seam steel pipe.

Seamless steel pipe, as the name suggests, is a pipe without a seam or a weld-joint. Seam steel pipe are generally welded with a seam.

1. Different Processing Technology: seamless steel pipe is made of high quality carbon steel or alloy steel. The processing technology of seamless steel pipes are cold drawn and hot rolled, and seam steel pipe are generally welded.

2. Different Uses: seamless steel pipes are mainly used as pipelines for conveying fluids, or structural parts in machinery industry, and seam steel pipes are mainly used in construction industry, such as low-pressure fluid, like water, gas, compressed air. But when must to use pressure pipes, seamless steel pipes is the better choice.

3. Different Pressure-bearing: the maximum working pressure that the seamed pipe can withstand is within 20 kg, which is the safest range of use. It is generally used for low-pressure fluids such as water, gas, and compressed air. Seamless steel pipe can withstand ultra-high pressure, its wall thickness will increase, which needs to be designed according to the pressure requirements. It is generally used for high-temperature and high-pressure equipment such as high-pressure oil pipes and boiler pipes. Also for the structure, which depends on the design requirements.

Application: seamless steel pipe is made by cold and hot drawing, and is used for medium pressure ≥ 1.6MPa. Seam steel pipe is formed by butt welding at high frequency, it is used for medium pressure＜ 1.6MPa. Now, there are some seamless seam-treated steel pipes. It is annealed to the weld seam, eliminating the residual stress of the weld seam, making the weld seam equivalent to the base metal, and its pressure range is basically the same as that of the seamless pipe. quite. 

Changsha Xiangjia Metal Materical Co., Ltd. the Steel Pipe Division of ADTO GROUP, is one of the leading manufacturers of steel pipe in China. We specializes in manufacturing seamless steel pipe, ERW steel pipe, square & rectangular steel pipe, OCTG pipe, ect. in various grades and sizes. We will tell you more knowledge about seamless steel pipe.

The Method of Extending the Service Life of Seamless Pipe

图片
Seamless steel pipes   have hollow sections and are widely used as pipes for conveying fluids, such as pipes for conveying oil, natural gas, gas, water and certain solid materials. The seamless pipe has a certain corrosion resistance, but in order to prolong the service life of the seamless pipe in some extreme environments, it is necessary to remove the oxide layer on the surface of the product. The main cleaning method is pickling. After cleaning, electrolytic cleaning is required again. 1. The seamless steel pipe must wear labor protection supplies before pickling. The on-site working environment should also be checked in detail, mainly to check whether the hoisting of the steel pipe is intact, and work can only be carried out after confirming that it is intact. 2. When pickling seamless steel pipes, the pickling method is mainly hydrochloric acid pickling. Usually, the content of hydrochloric acid is preferably 18% to 20%. 3. The staff also need to know the concentration and temper

Methods of Connecting Spiral Pipes

图片
The most commonly used method of connecting   large-diameter spiral steel pipes   is welding. However, manufacturers also use threaded connections, flange connections, socket connections, and groove connections in projects. In the post,   Xiangjiasteel   would like to introduce you some details about three main connections. 1. Welding and Flange Connection Welding and flange connections are traditional methods of connecting spiral pipes. These methods do not fully meet market demands in terms of safety, sealing performance, cost efficiency, and repair efficiency. They are mainly used for water transmission pipelines, oil and gas pipelines, chemical pipelines, and power pipelines. 2. Clamp Fitting Connection Clamp fitting connections are an advanced method of pipe connections. They can be used for both exposed and buried installations, accommodating both rigid and flexible joints.  3. Groove Fitting Connection Groove fitting connections, also known as clamp connections, have become the

Exploring the Importance of Drill Pipe

图片
Oil Country Tubular Goods   (OCTG) are vital components in oil and gas drilling activities. The term OCTG refers to a range of piping products specifically designed for use in the production of oil and gas. These products include drill pipes, casing pipes, tubing pipes, couplings, connections, and accessories. In this article, we will focus on the significance of drill pipes, one of the three main types of OCTG pipes. A drill pipe is a robust, seamless tube that serves a crucial role in drilling operations. It facilitates the rotation of the drill bit and allows the circulation of drilling fluid. This fluid helps in pumping through the drill bit and flowing back up the annulus, the space between the casing and the piping. The Importance of Drill Pipe in OCTG Endeavors: Drill pipes are designed to withstand axial tension, high torque, and internal pressure. Their strength and durability make them indispensable in the oil and gas industry. Here are some key reasons why drill pipes are cr
