Top Secret of Seamless Steel Pipe Production

The production process of general seamless steel pipes can be divided into two types: cold-drawn and hot-rolled. The production process of cold-rolled seamless steel pipes is generally more complicated than hot-rolled.

1. The main production processes of hot-rolled seamless steel pipes:

Tube billet preparation and inspection → tube billet heating → perforation → pipe rolling → steel pipe reheating → fixed (reduced) diameter → heat treatment → finished pipe straightening → finishing → inspection ³ (non-destructive, physical and chemical, bench inspection) → storage

1. Main production process of cold rolled (drawn) seamless steel pipe:

Blank preparation → pickling and lubrication → cold rolling (drawing) → heat treatment → straightening → finishing → inspection
