The difference between galvanized steel pipe and ordinary welded pipe

Welded steel pipe, also known as welded pipe, is a steel pipe made of steel plate or strip steel after being crimped and welded. Generally, the length is 6 meters. The production process of welded steel pipe is simple, the production efficiency is high, there are many varieties and specifications, and the investment in equipment is small, but the general strength is lower than that of seamless steel pipe.

Ordinary welded pipe: Ordinary welded pipe is used to transport low-pressure fluid. Made of Q195A, Q215A, Q235A steel. It can also be manufactured from other mild steels that are easy to weld. Steel pipes are subject to water pressure, bending, flattening, and other tests, and have certain requirements for surface quality. Usually, the delivery length is 4-10m, and delivery is often required to be fixed length (or double length). The specification of the welded pipe is represented by the nominal diameter (mm or inch). The nominal diameter is different from the actual one. The welded pipe has two types of ordinary steel pipe and thickened steel pipe according to the specified wall thickness. The steel pipe is divided into two types: threaded and unthreaded according to the pipe end form.

Galvanized steel pipe: In order to improve the corrosion resistance of the steel pipe, the general steel pipe (clarinet) is galvanized. There are two types of galvanized steel pipes: hot-dip galvanizing and electric steel zinc. The hot-dip galvanizing layer is thicker and the cost of electric galvanizing is low.

Features: The production process of longitudinal welded pipe is simple, the production efficiency is high, the cost is low, and the development is rapid. The strength of the spiral welded pipe is generally higher than that of the straight seam welded pipe, and the welded pipe with a larger diameter can be produced with a narrower billet, and welded pipes with different diameters can be produced with the same width billet. But compared with the straight seam pipe of the same length, the weld length is increased by 30~100%, and the production speed is lower.

Application fields: The products are widely used in water supply engineering, the petrochemical industry, the chemical industry, the electric power industry, agricultural irrigation, and urban construction. It is one of the twenty key products developed by our country. Used for liquid transportation: water supply and drainage. For gas transportation: gas, steam, liquefied petroleum gas.

For structural purposes: as piling pipes, as bridges; pipes for wharves, roads, building structures, etc.
