Specifications Of Seamless Steel Pipe

Date:2024-08-15Tags:Specifications Of Seamless Steel Pipe, Seamless Steel Pipe, Hot-rolled, ASTM
Seamless steel pipe is made of steel ingot or solid tube billet by perforation into rough tube, and then hot rolled, cold rolled or cold drawn. The specifications of seamless steel pipe are expressed by outer diameter and wall thickness in millimeters. Seamless steel pipe is divided into hot rolled and cold rolled (drawn) seamless steel pipe. Generally, seamless steel pipe is made of 10#, 20#, 30#, 35#, 45# and other high-quality carbon steel, 16Mn, 5MnV and other low alloy structural steel or 40Cr, 30CrMnSi, 45Mn2, 40MnB and other alloy steel by hot rolling or cold rolling. Seamless pipe made of low carbon steel such as 10# and 20# is mainly used for fluid transportation pipelines. Seamless pipe made of medium carbon steel such as 45# and 40Cr is used to manufacture Mechanical parts, such as load-bearing parts of automobiles and tractors. Generally, seamless steel pipes must be used to ensure strength and flattening tests. Hot-rolled steel pipes are delivered in hot-rolled or heat-treated states; cold-rolled steel pipes are delivered in heat-treated states.

Cold-rolled (drawn) seamless steel

In addition to general steel pipes, low- and medium-pressure boiler steel pipes, high-pressure boiler steel pipes, alloy steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, petroleum cracking pipes, and other steel pipes, cold-rolled (drawn) seamless steel pipes also include carbon thin-walled steel pipes, alloy thin-walled steel pipes, stainless thin-walled steel pipes, and special-shaped steel pipes. Main materials: 10#, 20#, 35#, 45# , Q345 (BCDE), 20MN2, 27SIMN, 40CR, 30CRMO and other alloy steel pipes.

Hot-rolled seamless steel pipe

Hot-rolled seamless copper pipes are divided into general steel pipes, low and medium pressure boiler steel pipes, high pressure boiler copper pipes, alloy steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, petroleum cracking pipes, geological steel pipes and other copper pipes. The outer diameter of hot-rolled seamless pipes is generally greater than 32mm, and the wall thickness is 2.5-75mm. The outer diameter of cold-rolled seamless steel pipes can reach 6mm, the wall thickness can reach 0.25mm, and the outer diameter of thin-walled pipes can reach 5mm and the wall thickness is less than 0.25mm. The cold-rolled seamless pipe has higher dimensional accuracy than hot-rolled pipes.
