Carbon steel seamless pipe

Carbon steel has good properties in hardness and strength, and it is less expensive than other steels.

The complex chemical and physical properties of the various grades of carbon steel pipe allow for a broad range of service usage. American piping products has the right grade, size and price to meet your requirements, including A/SA-106 Grade B/C and API 5L X- 42 thru X -70. A/SA-106 Grades B & C are utilized for services ranging from structural supports to steam drum headers with temperature ranges up to 800°F, while API 5L X Grades 42 thru 70 are utilized for the water and petroleum industry to transport liquids or as platforms on off-shore rigs.

The Application And Uses

Carbon steel has good properties in hardness and strength, and it is less expensive than other steels.

The properties of carbon steel are high hardness, strength, wear resistance and anti-corrosion. The percentage of carbon in the steel affects the hardness, strength of elasticity and ductility of carbon steel.

Carbon steel seamless pipes are extensively applied in the nuclear device, gas conveyance, petrochemical, shipbuilding and boiler industries, with characteristics of high corrosion resistance combined with suitable mechanical properties.

Carbon steel is an alloy with carbon and iron, with carbon content up to 2.1% by weight. The increase in the carbon percentage will raise steel’s hardness and strength, but it will be less ductile.

Mechanical properties

Carbon steel tube mechanical properties is generated in the carbon steel smelting defect smelting and casting process, such as segregation, non-metallic inclusions, porosity, shrinkage and cracks.

Density

Density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. The density of carbon steel is approximately 7.85 g/cm3 (0.284 lb/in3).

Steel is much denser than water but shaped appropriately, the density may be reduced (by adding air spaces), creating a steel ship that floats. Likewise a life jacket reduces the overall density of the person wearing it, enabling him to float much easier.

There is not one value for density that is the same for all types of steel. Different steels are different alloys, although I wouldn’t have thought the values would vary greatly since all are largely steel.

What are the materials of thick-walled alloy tubes?

The performance of alloy pipe is much higher than that of general seamless steel pipe, because this steel pipe contains more Cr, and its high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, corrosion resistance is not comparable to other seamless steel pipes, so alloy pipe is widely used in petroleum, chemical, electric power, boiler and other industries….

Process flow of seamless pipe

In both the manufacturing methods, raw steel is first cast into a more workable starting form (hot billet or flat strip). It is then made into a pipe by stretching the hot steel billet out into a seamless pipe or forcing the edges of flat steel strip together and sealing them with a weld.
