Different characteristics of different types of steel tubes

　　There are many uses of steel in our daily lives, such as household products (pots, scissors, cans), agricultural equipment and construction. This material is widely used in industry in general, especially in the form of steel sheets and tubes. In the energy sector, steel is widely used in hydroelectric and thermoelectric plants, forming pipes to conduct energy. There are several types of tube, each with its own specifics. Meet the following categories:

　　Square Tubes

　　Square tubes can be applied in a variety of industrial sectors, such as the foundation industry, general machine industry and other applications that require greater mechanical strength. Square tubes adapt well to these uses because they have a high concentration of carbon in their composition. They may be black or galvanized, whether or not sewn.

　　Rectangular Tubes

　　They are widely used in the production of machines and equipment of high strength and durability. Its geometric shape allows its use in mezzanines, foundations and supports for metal floors. They are useful in various engineering, civil construction and architecture of larger works. In the assembly of metal structures, they mainly serve as beams and support columns.

　　Round Industrial Tubes

　　They have longitudinal seam and are welded with electrical resistance. Made of carbon steel, they are widely used in structures for construction and architecture. Some of its applications are: playground toys, handrails, gym equipment, medical equipment, among others.

　　Round Conduction Tubes

　　They can be produced with or without longitudinal welding, with black or galvanized appearance. They are more malleable and flexible so they can make curves, depending on the structure in which they are applied. They may have different thickness and diameter. They are used for different purposes, such as machining, where they carry water, steam, gases, oils, finally, fluids in general. They can also be used in homes, buildings and commercial buildings to transport air conditioning, water and to compose fire networks.

　　What are the advantages of galvanized pipes?

　　The galvanizing process consists of applying a layer of zinc coating (chromium or tin can also be used) on steel or iron. This layer prevents the metal from being exposed to humid air and therefore slows down its corrosive process.

　　This process is very advantageous especially in the use of steel pipes in industry as they are constantly exposed to water, steam and fluids in general.

The main reason for the porosity of submerged arc welding seam

 Submerged arc welding technology is the welding process of SSAW steel pipe and LSAW steel pipe. During the welding process, in addition to insufficient penetration, burn-through and poor formation caused by improper welding process parameters, there will also be pores, slag inclusions, cracks, etc. Defects. This article mainly introduces the main reasons and preventive measures for porosity in submerged arc welding seams. (1) In the process of steel rolling or hot stamping and coiling, the oxide scale formed or fallen off, as well as the positioning welding slag shell, the carbon arc gas created flying slag, etc., are trapped in the flux, which will also cause pores in the weld. Preventive measures: ①The oxide skin that falls off during the process of coiling and bending should be cleaned or blown off with compressed air before assembly and welding to prevent it from being caught in the assembly gap or falling into the groove. ②The surrounding of the welding site should be clean t...

Standard for Choosing Oil Casing Pipe Manufacturers

 　　There are many standards for selecting oil casing manufacturers, which can be divided into short-term standards and long-term standards according to the length of time. The short-term standards for selecting oil casing manufacturers mainly include product quality, price level, timely delivery and overall service level. 　　1. Product quality 　　The quality of the purchased oil casing meets the requirements of the purchasing unit is a condition that the purchasing unit must consider when purchasing the oil casing. Poor quality and low price casing products have lower procurement costs, but will lead to an increase in the total cost, but if the quality is too high, it will far exceed the production requirements, which is also a waste. Therefore, the quality requirements of the oil casing in the procurement The production needs of the enterprise must be consistent, and the requirements are too high or too low are not appropriate. 　　2. Lower cost 　　A lower purchase price is an importan...

How to distinguish between ERW steel tube and seamless steel tube?

　　Today, Great Steel Pipe will tell you how to distinguish the ERW steel pipe and seamless steel pipe. 　　 ERW Steel Pipe 　　ERW is a specific type of welding process that is used to produce welded steel pipe, such as ERW steel pipe. Seam welding is commonly used during the manufacturing of round, square and rectangular steel tubing. The steel strip is unwound from coils and side-trimmed to control width and condition the edges for welding. The strip then passes through a series of contoured rollers which cold-form the material into a circular (square or rectangular) shape. The edges are forced together under pressure as a butt joint and then welded by heating the material to temperatures above 2000° F. The flash weld that has formed is now removed from the outside diameter of the tube. Once the weld has been tested the tube then passes through a series of sizing rolls to attain its precise finished size, after which the tube is then straightened and cut to length. 　 　Seamless Ste...
