Stale and used pipes - what's the difference?

Being engaged in the wholesale supply of various metal products, StalSnab LLC primarily offers you steel pipes and everything you need for the construction of pipelines, for example, steel pipe bends and transitions, flanges, expansion joints and pipeline supports. But is all only new steel products needed? Of course not, because pipes are widely used not only as a transportation line, but also as a material for construction. So what classes are the given rolled metal products divided into, if we evaluate them in terms of appearance and physical condition? With the new ones, everything is clear, then here's how to figure out what a stale pipe and a used pipe are and will be described in this article.

A stale pipe and its scope.

From the name of this type of product it follows that the stale pipe was in the warehouse of the manufacturer's enterprise for several years and remained unclaimed. Steel, during this time, can become rusty, especially if the storage conditions are not met, or the more the pipe is stored under a canopy without walls throughout the year. Of course, atmospheric influences do not pass without leaving a trace loses its marketable appearance, which does not have the most favorable effect on the price at which one would like to sell the product. But if we consider the issue of purchasing outdated products, then the prospects here are very bright - after all, we have excellent products, whose only appearance is not so attractive, but you can't admire it. Strength characteristics and reliability remain at the level of new ones, and by purchasing stale pipes you can save a lot, even if you take into account the funds that will be used for cosmetic cleaning of the inner and outer surfaces.

In this way, old pipes are used in the same place as new ones, if the customer is not too scrupulous in the matter of appearance. StalSnab LLC offers a wide range of old rolled metal products of various diameters ranging from the smallest to pipes 900 mm, 1020 and 1400 mm.

Pipes are used as material for fencing or strengthening the walls of the excavation.

Used pipes have already felt all the negative effects of the environment and the transported environment, in the first place, of course, corrosion, leading to thinning of the walls and the appearance of through fistulas. So, a used pipe cannot be reused for its intended purpose and no amount of treatment will help it. But not all sections of the pipeline are equally exposed to rust destruction, and therefore some of the pipes when replacing a section of the line can be used in some other way.

So pipes bu of small diameter are used for the construction of fences as support pillars, and a larger diameter, whose physical condition is not too bad, is used to strengthen the walls during various earthworks. They are used as a temporary element, which, as a result of the work, will be replaced with new steel or reinforced concrete structures.

The StalSnab company invites you to personally come and make sure of the quality of used metal products in our warehouses in order to be completely confident in the quality of the products offered. We try to offer only the most favorable prices so that cooperation with our company is long-term and beneficial to both parties.
