When it comes to industrial piping, we all want strong and reliable pipelines that can withstand high-pressure and corrosive environments. One such pipe that has gained popularity over the years due to its capability to meet various industrial demands is the spiral welded pipe. Spiral welded pipes are produced by constantly processing and welding a rolled steel sheet into a pipe form. In this blog, we shall learn more about the different types, applications, and advantages of spiral welded pipes.   Types of spiral welded pipes  Spiral welded pip es are classified based on parameters such as diameter, thickness, and length. There are two major types of spiral welded pipes:  - Low-frequency welded spiral pipes: These are made using-helical-arc welding and are suitable for fluid transportation.  - High-frequency welded spiral pipes: These are made using high-frequency induction welding, which makes them perfect for structural applications.   Applications...

Stainless steel flanges are widely used in various industries to connect pipes, valves, and equipment. One of the most critical factors that determine the flange's functionality and compatibility is the dimensions of the flange. In this blog post, we will discuss the different types of stainless steel flange dimensions and their application. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced professional, this guide will provide you with all the information you need to understand the ins and outs of stainless steel flange dimensions. There are several types of stainless steel flange dimension s that are widely used in the industry. The most common ones include the following: Nominal Pipe Size (NPS): This refers to the diameter of the pipe in which the flange will be attached. The NPS dimensions range from ½ inch to 24 inches and are classified in different schedules. Flange Outer Diameter (OD): The outer diameter of the flange is measured across the flange from one end to another...

  In some instances the terms may be used interchangeably, however there is one key difference between tube and pipe, particularly in how the material is ordered and tolerance.  Instrumentation Tubing   is used in structural applications so the outside diameter becomes the important dimension. Tubes are often put into applications such as medical devices that require precise outside diameters. The outside diameter is important since it will indicate how much it can hold as a stability factor. Whereas pipes are normally used to transport gasses or liquids making it important to know the capacity. Knowing how much can flow through the pipe is key. The circular shape of the pipe make it efficient when handling pressure from the liquid flowing through. Characteristics There are a few key characteristics that separate tube from pipe: Shape Pipe is always round. Tubes can be square, rectangular, and round. Measurement Tube is typically ordered outside diameter and...

When positioned aspect by aspect, the A515 Gr 70 Plates   and A516 Gr 70 Plates have small differences based primarily on individual company standards. ASTM International has perhaps the nicest and most technologically superior suite of tools available to the consumer everywhere to help the thousands of members who come together under our banner to write requirements. Division 2 provides requirements for supplies, design, and non-destructive examination standards. Division Three supplies tips for strain vessels that operate at internal or external pressures greater than 10,000 psi. The ASME A515 gr 70 designation relies on the ASTM designation and covers all carbon steel plates, bars, and shapes utilized in the construction of bridges and different buildings cover all the psi requirements of ASTM A516 gr 70 standards, as well as boiler and strain vessel code requirements.   What is the difference between ASTM and ISO? ASTM publishes six different types of standards: test metho...

  304 Seamless Stainless Steel Pipes are made from a round steel “billet” which when heated or pushed or pulled, forms a hollow tube like shape. To manufacture welded stainless steel pipes, coils are necessary. Difference between seamless and welded stainless steel pipes: Welded pipes are manufactured by rolling metal and then welding it across its length. Whereas, seamless pipes are manufactured with the help of solid round billets. During the production of seamless pipes, the dimensional and wall thickness specifications are kept in mind. A seamless pipe is a pipe without a seam or a weld joint. It is like an empty hole cross area, without any creases around the circle, or rectangular steel. These pipes have a better weight limit, also known as pressure capacity.   Applications of seamless pipes: high pressure areas, like hydrocarbon industry and refineries, oil and gas drilling, oil and gas transportation, air and hydraulic cylinders, bearings, boilers, and automob...

Copper pipes are the most common pipes used in plumbing. They are often categorized by their thickness and type of finish. The three common types of copper pipes are: 1. Coated copper pipe: it is usually found in bathrooms and kitchens because it is less expensive than brass or stainless steel pipes and easy to maintain. 2. Black iron pipe: these pipes can also be found in both bathroom and kitchen installations but they rust easily so they require frequent painting or sealing to avoid corrosion, which can lead to leakage or bursting seams. 3. Stainless steel pipe: these pipes offer protection from corrosion and keep your home's water clean, but they are often more expensive than coated copper pipe and less durable when exposed to high temperatures such as those found in dishwashers or washing What are the features of copper pipes? Copper pipes are used in plumbing because they are strong, durable, and easy to bend. They are also corrosion resistant which means that the...
