Stainless steel welded pipes and tubes are manufactured by welding together stainless steel plates or coils, resulting in a longitudinal seam along its length. Welded pipes and tubes can be produced in various sizes and shapes, including round, square, and rectangular, to meet different industrial and commercial requirements.Stainless steel welded pipes and tubes offer several advantages over seamless ones. They are more cost-effective, as the production process is simpler and requires less material. They also offer improved consistency in wall thickness, making them ideal for applications that require precise measurements.
Stainless steel welded pipes and tubes are commonly used in various industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals. They are known for their excellent corrosion resistance and durability, making them suitable for use in harsh and corrosive environments.
