Welded steel pipe—lower the cost of steel pipe with large sizes

With the rapid development technology of strip steel, combined with more and more sophisticated welding technology, welded steel pipes become more and more prevalent among customers in the steel pipe market. Of course, in order to meet different requirements of customers, there are multiple steel pipe specifications with skilled technology, which can extend the choice range for the customers who always have special size demand. Among these technologies, one of the most simple as well as effective method is straight seam welding. By this method, welded steel pipe has more market shares and its application scope is larger and larger. As welded steel pipes occupy large share of the steel pipe market, seamless steel tubes can be replaced by welded steel pipe that is useful in multiple ways in some areas, which can also save construction cost for contractors for the steel pipe price of welded steel pipe is lower than that of seamless steel pipe. In addition, welded steel pipe can be divided into two categories that is welded square steel pipe and round steel pipe. Welded square tube has a large application scope and it is used in all walks of life.

In common logic thinking,we can relate literal meaning of the steel pipe name to its application. For example, we will think of specifications when we see the name of welded steel pipe specifications and we will have the desire to get a basic knowledge of the different date of the steel pipe specifications. Besides, the specification is closely linked to the application since square steel pipe has different application range compared with round steel pipe. By other words, each project has fixed specifications as long as manufacturers produce steel pipes depending on the specification date provided by customers who are familiar with the project demands. That is to say, different steel pipe specifications are conducive to accelerating the development speed of the society as well as reducing steel pipe cost.

Steel pipe price will be changed according to the different specifications in the fluctuated steel pipe market. For large size steel pipe which is used for the transportation of large amounts of liquid or gas, its price will be higher because of its big diameter and thick thickness. If welded steel pipe, a kind of straight seam steel pipe, are widely used, the cost will be lower, which is accepted by steel pipe manufacturers. Any questions about it?
