First identified in the 1700s, nickel was first known as ‘kupfernickel‘ because it was found in a rock that looked like copper ore. Miners once thought that nothing of nickel, thinking that this element makes it difficult for them to extract copper from rocks. Little did they know that nickel would soon become one of the most essential industrial metals…
In the nineteenth century, rolling mill technology was the only technique used to manufacture stainless tubes and pipes for industrial purpose. This rolling technique involved long procedures. The rolled strips of sheet were formed into a circular cross section with the help of funnel rolls. The lap welding was then done on these rolled strips through the forge welding process.
Thankfully with the advent of development and technology, various processes came into existence for the manufacturing of stainless tubes and pipes in India. Now-a-days, stainless steel pipes and tubes are manufactured with continuous tube mill using multitorch tungsten Inert gas. The filler metal or forge welding process is not used in this technique.
Stainless Steel Pipe and Tube Manufacturing Process
Today, Pearlite Steel will discuss about the key difference between Seamless and ERW Stainless Steel Pipe
What is the Raw material required for manufacturing Seamless & ERW Stainless steel Pipes?
Seamless Steel Pipe is made from a solid round steel ‘billet’ which is heated and pushed or pulled over a form until the steel is shaped into a hollow tube. Billets are procured both from indigenous suppliers and from abroad. Major Indigenous suppliers are JSPL, JSW & Kalyani and steel round billets are imported from renowned mills from Europe, Far East countries, Canada, China.
To Manufacture ERW Stainless Steel Pipes HR Coils are required. Major Indigenous suppliers of these HR Coils are SAIL, Essar, JSW, Lloyds etc.
Pearlite steel is Manufacturer and Exporter of Stainless Steel Pipes, Tubes. Pearlite Steel will continuously strive to attain and sustain Leading and largest manufacturer of Stainless Steel Pipes. This achievement will be accomplished by committed and well trained employee, Technical Excellence, Premium quality products and customer service to the maximum. Today’s we will explain Stainless Steel Pipe Applications in brief.
Worldwide demand of Stainless Steel products is increasing at rate of 5% per year. Thanks to our industrialization growth in developing economies (BRIC), annual consumption is now well over 22 million tons and rising in areas such as construction, metallurgy and household appliances. Stainless steel is stronger, higher corrosive resistant, low maintenance, attractive in appearance and costlier than standard grade of steel.
