Carbon steel pipes are made up of carbon content up to 2.1 percent of alloy weight. These pipes are made utilizing a variety of procedures and results in the pipe with different features. If the carbon content in the alloy used to manufacture the line pipe of Carbon Steel is increased, the tensile strength and hardness properties of the metals will increase.
Let us discuss some types of Carbon steel pipes:
Carbon Steel Seamless Pipes – The carbon and iron content of Carbon Steel Seamless Pipes is higher, other elements such as silicon, manganese, and copper are permissible in varying amounts depending on the grade. These characteristics lead to greater durability and resistance to stress.
Carbon Steel Fabricated Pipes – Pipes made of carbon steel fabric are extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and structurally rigid. Carbon Steel Fabricated Pipes can be found in many industries including petroleum processing, chemical processing, metalworking, nuclear power, food processing industry.
Carbon Steel ERW Pipes
Many characteristics such as lightweight design, corrosion resistance, precise craftsmanship, intricate detailing, affordability, and more can be found in lightweight construction. Steel ERW pipes are used for a variety of applications including shipbuilding, vehicles, boilers and compressed gas, rails, petroleum chemical plants, coal mining, and cell towers.
Carbon Steel Welded Pipes
Pipes made from carbon steel are used in high-pressure applications, and they are widely used in the water and waste transportation industries, the petroleum industry, elevated applications, and chemical processing.
ASTM A335 Carbon Steel Pipes
ASTM A335 P11 Seamless Pipe is made of carbon steel and has a minimum tensile strength of 415MPa and a minimum yield strength of 205MPa. The material is extremely durable and resistant to wear and tear.
Carbon Steel LSAW Pipes
Due to their high cost, LSAW pipes are not widely used in water pipelines due to some of their nice characteristics, such as their ease of installation, seamless finish, and high durability.
