The uses of seamless pipes Seamless pipes are those that have no joints and are often welded together. It is a long tube of continuous metal. Seamless pipes are more uniform in consistency unlike rolled and welded pipe that has been seam welded. A Seamless pipe can also withstand higher operating pressures and more temperature and can withstand more mechanical stress than other welded pipes which are non seamless. For example the erw pipes(which have a weld seam) and other various seam steel tubes. It also has a higher resistance to corrosion. Uses of seamless pipes Seamless pipes are mainly used in factories or places where food production takes place or where dangerous chemicals are being produced and used. They are also applied for nuclear devices, gas and petrochemical refineries, hydrocarbon industries, automobiles, automotive semi - axle sets, petroleum cracking, coal mining, ship building and boiler and engineering industries. Other common uses of seamless pipes are plumbing, tap water, irrigation, ground water transportation, fertilizer equipment, pipelines transporting gas or liquids over long periods, compressed air systems, pipe bombs, casing for concrete piling and construction projects. These functions of seamless pipes depend on the thickness of pipe walls are possible only because the pipes are electric resistant, are not temper brittle and have joints where valves etc exist. This is to prevent accidental leakage or external contamination that can occur with conventional joints. Steel tubes and other steel pipes in Kolkata, like square pipes, rectangular pipes are in increasing demand. With the evolution of manufacturing industries they are becoming more and more sought after as it is required to meet the needs of a wide range of industries and other construction and manufacturing sites. It is an undeniable fact that
seamless pipes are ruling the market as they are cost effective, durable, hard, and have fewer irregularities in the pipe wall.
