In steel pipe production, welding and seamless manufacturing are the two main processes. Understanding their differences helps industries select the optimal solution.
Welded Steel Pipes:
Produced by rolling steel plates or strips and welding the seams.
- Pros: High production efficiency, cost-effective, suitable for mass production.
- Cons: The weld seam may be a weak point, unsuitable for high-pressure or highly corrosive environments.
Seamless Steel Pipes:
Made by directly drawing from steel billets via hot rolling or cold drawing, with no weld seams.
- Pros: Superior strength, ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
- Cons: Higher production costs.
Selection Guide:
High-Pressure or Specialized Equipment: Seamless steel pipes ensure safety and reliability.
Low-Pressure Fluid Transport: Welded steel pipes are sufficient.
