Description
Welded steel pipe (steel pipe manufactured with a weld) is a tubular product made out of flat plates, known as skelp, that are formed, bent and prepared for welding.
Electric Resistance Welded, often abbreviated as ERW, is a process that uses specific machinery to shape the pipe and tubing. A continuous steel sheet is unwound from a coil and shaped using contoured rollers, forcing the edges together under pressure. These edges are then welded together by heating the material to over 2,000 degrees. After welding, the pipe or tubing is cut into the exact size needed.
SAW is normally operated in the automatic or mechanized mode, however, semi-automatic (hand-held) SAW guns with pressurized or gravity flux feed delivery are available.
SAW pipe is made of hot rolled coiled steel by automatic submerged arc weld under normal
atmospheric temperature. All the pipes are produced according to API Spec 5L, GB/T9711.1, GB/T9711.2, ASTM A252-89 standard. These pipes mainly used in petroleum and natural gas industry to transport flammable and non-flammable liquid and steel construction.
SAW means submerged arc weld ,it can be classified into LSAW and SSAW
BS EN 10219-1: British Standard
Cold-formed welded structural hollow sections of non-alloy and fine-grain steels
Application: Power plant; Chemical Fertilizer; Petrochemicals; Offshore Oils; Gas Productions; Refineries and etc.
The standard covers the dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties of these hollow sections, as well as the requirements for testing, marking, and inspection.
