Steel pipes are ubiquitous and can be found in underground and residential walls, laboratories and commercial and industrial structures. Pipelines transport fluids, including water, natural gas, waste and air. There are three manufacturing methods for steel pipe production. Seamless steel pipe is produced by extrusion die. Welded steel pipes are made by rolling steel plates into pipes and welding them.

The manufacturing process of seamless steel tube begins with solid round billet. Then the billet is heated to high temperature, stretched and stretched until the hollow tube is hollow. As other steel pipe suppliers have told you, there are three advantages to making pipes in this way.


Increase rated pressure


The greatest advantage of seamless steel tube is to increase the ability to withstand pressure. The weakest part of the welded pipe is the weld. However, the seamless steel pipe has no welds and joints, which makes the whole pipeline have the same strength.


Without considering the welding quality, it is easy to determine the pressure calculation.
Although seamless steel tubes may sometimes be more expensive than welded steel tubes, this increased pressure-bearing capacity enables you to use thinner and lighter pipes, thereby helping to reduce costs.
