Seamless pipes serve a very special purpose. Due to their physical design, not only do they ensure superior strength and support, thanks to the absence of any noticeable joints in the pipe, they also look good as well. This ensures that they find application in a lot of cases where the pipes need to be in open view. There are numerous structural advantages of using a stainless steel seamless pipe as well, all of which have helped ensure a huge demand for them in the Indian market.
What advantages does a seamless pipe offer?
A stainless steel seamless pipe is made by forming a hollow tube of uniform width and circumference. He hollow structure ensures that the pipes can be easily bent to form any required shape and accommodate any structural needs of the client. So when a pipe needs to be laid out in such a manner that it will not be forming a straight line, seamless pipes are preferred over other types of stainless steel pipes.
Since the pipe can simply be bent whenever needed, there are no needs for joints in seamless pipes. An absence of joints makes these pipes several times stronger than welded ones. They can withstand higher pressure and thus find application in scenarios where a regular pipe with joints or weldings would simply break apart.
Another major advantage that seamless pipes offer is the uniformity of their size. You can be certain that any quality stainless
steel seamless pipe will have uniform cross section at every point. This is the result of the formation process for these pipes where the molten steel is placed around a circular object and then formed into a hollow tube. Welded pipes, even with the most advanced welding technologies can never come close to achieving this level of uniformity. When a pipe is needed that can be counted on to fit the design perfectly, seamless pipes are the way to go,
Strength and reliability are the two areas where seamless pipes have left all other kind of steel pipes behind. Despite slightly higher costs, they are extremely reliable and can be counted on to deliver superior performance at all times.
