What is welded and seamless wrought steel pipe?

Wrought steel pipe is cheaper than wrought iron pipe and consequently is used more widely in heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning than the latter. Depending on the method of manufacture, wrought-steel pipe is available as either welded pipe or seamless pipe.Seamless wrought-steel pipe finds frequent application in high-pressure work.

The wall thickness and weights of wrought-steel pipe are approximately the same as those for wrought-iron pipe. As with wrought-iron pipe, the two most commonly used weights are standardand extra strong.

Welded wrought steel pipe

  • The welded wrought steel pipe manufacturing involves moving steel strips through rollers that form the material into a tubular shape. These strips then pass through a welding device that fuses them into a single pipe.

Seamless wrought steel pipe

  • Seamless wrought steel pipe starts as a solid piece of heated steel. Forced through a form that shapes the material into a hollow tube, the pipe is then machined into appropriate dimensions.
