Seamless steel pipe is a kind of steel pipe manufactured by punching, rolling and drawing molding processes, and there is no weld on the surface, nor any welded joint. Compared with welded steel pipes, seamless steel pipes have uniform overall structure and consistent wall thickness, so they have better pressure resistance and higher impact resistance, and are widely used in important pipeline systems with high temperature, high pressure and high sealing.
The application range of seamless pipes is very wide, including fluid transportation, structure and support, mechanical parts, heat exchangers, high-pressure boilers, ship construction, oil drilling, automobile manufacturing, etc., which need to use seamless steel pipes.
The use of seamless pipes can effectively avoid penetration problems, ensure the use of steel pipes and the safety of engineering projects, the following are the main application areas of seamless pipes:
Fluid transport
Seamless steel pipes are often used to transport a variety of liquids and gases, especially for long-distance transportation of oil, natural gas, fuel oil and chemical media. Due to its excellent compressive performance and sealing, it can effectively prevent media leakage and external pollution.
High temperature and pressure system
With its excellent strength and high temperature resistance, seamless pipes become the ideal conveying pipes in boilers, heat exchangers and ultra-high temperature and high pressure conveying systems to ensure the safe operation of equipment.
Structure and support applications
Seamless steel pipes are not only used for fluid transportation, but also are often used as mechanical structures, Bridges, scaffolding and other load-bearing components. Due to its high strength and rigidity, it can reduce its own weight while ensuring the stability of the structure.
Oil drilling
Seamless steel pipe plays an important role in oil drilling operations, such as for drill pipe, casing and so on. Its seamless construction allows the pipe to withstand shocks and pressures during drilling for longer durability and safety.
Mechanical parts
Due to the high dimensional accuracy and smooth surface of seamless pipe, it can be used to manufacture mechanical parts such as automobile transmission shaft, hydraulic cylinder, rolling bearing ring, which helps to improve the performance and service life of the overall equipment.
Ship construction
Seamless steel pipes in ship construction can not only be used for fluid transport and heat transfer, but also play a key role in the manufacture of hull structures and equipment, ensuring that ships have high safety and reliability in harsh Marine environments.
Some special application areas need to use special seamless steel pipes, according to their actual situation to choose seamless pipes, to ensure that the steel pipe can meet the needs of use.
