Hot Rolled Seamless Pipe

Hot-rolled seamless pipes are steel pipes made by heating steel billets and rolling them into shape without welding. They have uniform wall thickness, high strength, and no seams, making them ideal for high-pressure applications in industries like oil, gas, and construction.

What Is Hot Rolled Seamless Pipe?

A hot rolled seamless pipe is a type of steel pipe manufactured through a process called hot rolling, which involves forming the pipe from a solid billet without any welding seams. This method ensures the pipe has a uniform structure and high strength, making it suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Hot Rolled Seamless Pipe

Advantages:

  • Superior strength and reliability.

  • Better resistance to corrosion and high temperatures.

  • Smooth internal surface, reducing friction and improving flow efficiency.


Disadvantages:

  • Higher cost compared to welded pipes due to the complex manufacturing process.

  • Limited availability in very large diameters.


Hot-Rolled Seamless Steel Tube Manufacturing Process

Round tube perforation → heating → three-roll rolling, rolling or extrusion → detached → sizing (or reducing) → cooling → straightening → hydrostatic test (or testing) → mark → storage.
