Carbon steel pipe and its application

　　The term carbon steel pipe is quite broad in scope and can be used to describe a wide range of metal tubular goods whose main alloying element is carbon. Although many of the same manufacturing principles apply to both carbon steel pipe and various similar alloy tubular goods, the focus of this narrative will be on the manufacturing process of mild carbon steel pipe goods commonly used for oil and gas as well as water transmission, structural applications, general purpose casing, piling, and mechanical components.

　　Carbon steel pipe manufacturing starts out by arriving at the pipe mill in the form of either a billet (basically a large solid steel bar) or a coil (imagine a roll of toilet paper made out of steel). Depending on the manufacturing method used by the mill, these billets or coils will be processed to yield the finished end product.

　　Manufacturer of industrial carbon steel pipes in a variety of grades for structural piping application. Available in 5 to 160, XH, and XXH schedules, plain, beveled, threaded, and victualic grooved end finishes, and cement lined, concrete, and passivated coatings. Serves industries such as oilfields, refinery, construction, shipping, and maritime. Special schedules also available.
