The welding process of the erw pipe is to use the skin-receiving principle generated by the high-frequency current to heat the edge of the hot-rolled coil to a molten state, and then perform welding by a mechanical extrusion method. The steel pipe produced by the process will have a white fusion line at the center of the weld, and the heat-affected zone on both sides of the fusion line will have a metal flow line extending from the middle to the inner and outer surfaces. Since the erw pipe is made of a base material as a welding material, the performance of the weld seam has a great relationship with the performance of the base material. In ordinary materials, the ductile-brittle transition temperature curve of the weld and the base metal. In ordinary materials, the difference in absorbed energy values between the weld and the base material in the Charpy impact test is small. On the contrary, there is a big difference in the high toughness material, and the weld impact toughness is obviously inferior to the base metal, but it is obviously superior to the weld of the ordinary material.

Product Description

Product Description

It can be seen that the impact toughness of the weld center of the high-frequency steel pipe is generally lower than that of the base material. Even if the toughness material is used, although the toughness of the weld is improved, the impact toughness of the weld center cannot be completely improved.

Factors affecting weld impact toughness:
01 Physical and chemical properties of raw materials
02 Crystal materials and non-metallic inclusions of raw materials
03 Heat treatment conditions of welds
04 Molding conditions
05 Welding conditions

Applications of Welded Steel Pipes

1. Low-Pressure Fluid Transportation (GB/T3092)

Commonly known as black pipe, it is used to transport water, gas, air, oil, heating steam, and other general lower pressure fluids. Available in ordinary and thickened variations, with plain or threaded ends.

2. Galvanized Welded Steel Pipe (GB/T3091)

Commonly known as white pipe, these are hot-dip galvanized pipes used for water, gas, air oil, and heating steam transportation where corrosion resistance is required.

3. Ordinary Carbon Steel Wire Casing (GB3640)

Specifically designed to protect wires in electrical installation projects for industrial and civil buildings as well as machinery equipment.

4. Straight Seam Electric Welded Steel Pipe (YB242)

Pipes with the weld seam parallel to the longitudinal direction. Includes metric electric welded pipes, thin-walled pipes, and transformer cooling oil pipes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ERW steel pipe?
ERW stands for Electric Resistance Welded. It is a type of steel pipe manufactured by cold-forming a steel sheet into a cylindrical shape and then passing an electric current through the edges to create a longitudinal weld.
What factors affect the toughness of the weld?
The main factors include the physical and chemical properties of the raw materials, non-metallic inclusions, heat treatment conditions of the weld, molding conditions, and the specific welding parameters used during production.
Can the internal weld bead be removed?
Yes, according to customer requirements, both the inner and outer welded stabs can be removed to ensure a smooth surface for fluid flow or structural needs.
What surface treatments do you offer?
We offer a wide range of treatments including hot-dip galvanizing, pre-galvanizing, color painting, electroplating, oiling, powder coating, 3LPE, and PVC coating.
What are the common uses for black pipes?
Black pipes (standard welded steel pipes) are primarily used for low-pressure fluid transportation such as water, gas, air, and steam, as well as for structural applications like scaffolding and fencing.
Is third-party inspection available?
Yes, we can supply BV or SGS inspections if the client requires them to ensure the quality and specifications meet the project standards.
