What are the major advantages of welded steel pipes?

Welded steel pipe is a kind of steel pipe which is formed by extrusion or rolling of steel coil or steel plate as raw material and welded along the weld. Welded steel pipes are mainly divided into three types, namely ERW, LSAW, SSAW steel pipes. Welded steel pipes have many advantages, especially in terms of cost and production efficiency. The following are several common advantages of welded steel pipes.

1. Low production cost
The production process of welded steel pipe is relatively simple, and the production speed is fast. Moreover, compared with seamless steel pipe welded steel pipe manufacturing costs are lower, the price is more affordable, suitable for large-scale production.

2. High production efficiency
Welded steel pipe is produced by automatic welding equipment, the process is relatively simple, the production speed is fast, especially for the production of fixed standard specifications of steel pipe, the production efficiency of welded steel pipe is higher, making the delivery cycle shorter, the supply is more stable.

3. Various specifications
The wall thickness and diameter of welded steel pipe are easier to control than seamless steel pipe, and the product precision of welded steel pipe is high, which can meet the requirements of different projects and projects. Especially large diameter steel pipe manufacturing.

4. Wide range of application
The scope of application of welded steel pipes is very wide, and can be used in many fields such as water supply, gas transmission, machinery manufacturing, especially in the field of low-pressure fluid transportation.

5. Easy maintenance and inspection
The weld position of the welded steel pipe is relatively obvious, which is convenient for subsequent inspection and maintenance, and the surface of the welded steel pipe is relatively uniform, which is conducive to inspection and maintenance.

In summary:

Because of its excellent performance and advantages, welded steel pipes are widely used in all kinds of engineering projects, and their wide variety can play a vital role in different fields.
