Seamless Pipe-Welded Steel Pipe
Steel pipes come in many forms and sizes. Seamless pipes are a non-welded option produced from hollowed-out steel billets. When it comes to welded steel pipes, there are three options: ERW, LSAW and SSAW.ERW pipes are made from electric resistance welded steel plates. LSAW pipes are made from longitudinally submerged arc welded steel plates. SSAW pipes are made from spiral submerged arc welded steel plates.Steel pipes are typically used in the oil and gas industry for exploration and extraction (upstream), the transmission of fluids like oil, gas and slurries (midstream) and oil refinement into derivative products (downstream). They are also used for agricultural irrigation, urban construction and more.Let’s take a closer look at each type of pipe, comparing their differences and how to make an order with the right description.
