In recent years, there has been a steady growth in the consumption of stainless steel pipes, which began against the backdrop of global trends in the increase in the market capacity of stainless steels and products from them.
The world industry has mastered the production of stainless steel pipes of round and rectangular sections. Both types of these pipes are used in industry, depending on the end use.
The high performance properties of stainless pipes, such as excellent corrosion resistance and resistance to aggressive media, as well as the excellent aesthetics of stainless pipe products, determined high sales growth rates.
In order to finally decide on the choice, it is necessary to take into account the advantages and disadvantages of different types of pipe production.
For example, the advantages of seamless stainless pipes are reliability and high quality of utilities and connections. And the advantage of an electric-welded pipe is high accuracy in wall thickness, stability and high accuracy of geometric dimensions.
Compared to a conventional pipe made of ferrous metal, a stainless pipe has only one drawback, it is a high material cost, which is many times overshadowed by its excellent strength and durability.
