According to different production processes, seamless steel pipes can be mainly divided into hot-rolled seamless steel pipes and cold-drawn (cold-rolled) seamless steel pipes.
According to different production processes, seamless steel pipes can be mainly divided into hot-rolled seamless steel pipes and cold-drawn (cold-rolled) seamless steel pipes. The two types of pipes have obvious differences in production principle, performance and application scenarios, and customers can choose according to their actual needs.
Hot-rolled seamless steel pipes are produced by heating the steel billet to a high temperature (usually above 1200℃) and then piercing and rolling. They have the characteristics of high production efficiency, low cost and good toughness, and are suitable for large-diameter, thick-walled seamless steel pipes. They are widely used in construction, machinery manufacturing, water supply and drainage and other fields that do not require extremely high dimensional accuracy.
Cold-drawn (cold-rolled) seamless steel pipes are produced by drawing or rolling the hot-rolled seamless steel pipe blanks at room temperature. The products have high dimensional accuracy, smooth surface, uniform wall thickness and high strength. They are suitable for small-diameter, thin-walled seamless steel pipes and are widely used in precision machinery, automotive parts, medical equipment and other fields that require high precision.
Shandong Hongtai Tianrui Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. has advanced hot-rolled and cold-drawn production lines, which can produce various specifications of seamless steel pipes to meet the diverse needs of global customers.
