Stainless steel industrial welded pipe is a hollow long round steel, mainly widely used in petroleum, chemical, medical, food, light industry, mechanical instrumentation and other industrial pipelines and mechanical structural components.
According to ASME SA249 Specification, TP304 stainless steel tube is welded. So usually we also say ASME SA249 TP304 Welded tube. Comparing with TP304 Seamless tube, the SS304 Welded tube can save cost. Nowadays, more people use SA249 SS304 Welded tube to replace SA213 TP304 Seamless tube, especially in the filed of heat exchanger, boiler and condenser system.
In addition, when the bending and torsional strength are the same, the weight is lighter, so it is also widely used in the manufacture of mechanical parts and engineering structures.
According to different manufacturing processes, it can be divided into several basic types: hot rolling, extrusion, cold drawing and cold rolling, and can be divided into round tubes and special-shaped tubes according to the cross-sectional shape.
For steel pipes under fluid pressure, hydraulic test or Eddy Current test is required to check their pressure resistance and quality. It is qualified if no leakage, soaking or expansion occurs under the specified pressure. Some steel pipes also need to be crimped according to standards or requirements of the buyer, such as Flaring test and flattening test.
