What Are the Different Types of Carbon Steel Pipes?

Nov. 06, 2021


Carbon steel pipes are manufactured using many different technologies that produce pipes with a variety of characteristics. The carbon content of carbon steel pipes can be up to 2.1% of the total weight of the alloy.

There are different types of carbon steel pipes available on the market and they have other uses. Each type of carbon steel pipe has specific characteristics and defined functions. In addition, there are different manufacturing processes available and the products vary with strength and pressure-bearing capacity. We introduce you to the common types of carbon steel pipes.


Seamless

It contains more carbon and iron in its composition. Depending on the grade, the amount of trace silicon, manganese and copper allowed varies. As a result, carbon steel seamless pipe material is stronger and extremely resistant to stress. In heavy facilities, these characteristics make the pipe suitable.

Epoxy coated

Epoxy coated carbon steel pipe is a product that has a resin and polyamine hardener coating. The resin and hardener initiate a chemical reaction, then a cross-link is formed between the elements, and then the product is fully cured and is called epoxy coated carbon steel pipe. These pipes are known for their mechanical properties, such as hardness, durability, abrasion resistance and chemical resistance.


ERW

Carbon steel erw pipes have various properties such as light weight, corrosion resistance, structural soundness, precision design, intricate detailing, economy, etc. These ERW pipes are used in shipbuilding, automotive, boilers and pressure vessels, railroads, oil and petrochemical, coal and mining, power transmission towers, and general and heavy engineering.


Welded

They are used for high pressure conditions. Carbon steel welded pipe is commonly used in a range of industries, such as water and waste transportation, the oil and gas industry, high-pressure applications and chemical manufacturing.

LSAW

Carbon steel LSAW pipe has some excellent features such as easy installation, seamless finish, rust resistance, etc. Because these LSAW pipes are expensive, they are not widely used in lower value non-energy applications, such as water pipelines.


prefabricated

They offer high durability, corrosion resistance and tensile strength. Carbon steel composite pipes are used in various industries such as the oil and gas industry, chemical industry, metallurgical industry, energy industry, marine industry, desalination industry, food industry, pulp and paper industry, etc.



Carbon steel offers you high durability standards and cost effectiveness. Without investing a lot of cash, you get the high reliability you need for your piping systems. Carbon steel forged fittings are available in different styles, such as elbows, tees, couplings, flappers, bushings, caps, plugs, crosses, etc. 


Carbon steel forged fittings are used in a wide range of applications, from power generation, chemical, petrochemical and OEM manufacturing industries to other applications requiring vibration and high pressure or highly corrosive conditions.
