Carbon steel pipes are essential components in various industries due to their strength, durability, and versatility. These pipes are predominantly composed of iron and carbon, with carbon content typically ranging from 0.05% to 2.0%. Carbon steel pipes can be classified into several types based on manufacturing methods, dimensions, and intended applications:
API 5L Grade Carbon Steel Pipes: Designed to meet the specifications outlined by the American Petroleum Institute (API), API 5L grade carbon steel pipes are primarily used for conveying oil, gas, and water in the petroleum and natural gas industries. These pipes come in different grades (e.g., API 5L Grade B, X42, X52, X65) and are known for their high strength and resistance to corrosion.
Carbon steel pipes are an integral component of various industries, owing to their versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Composed primarily of iron and carbon, these pipes are renowned for their robustness and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. From transporting fluids like water, oil, and gas in pipelines to structural frameworks in construction, carbon steel pipes play a pivotal role in facilitating the flow of resources and supporting infrastructure worldwide. Their ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures makes them ideal for industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and power generation. Furthermore, carbon steel pipes are relatively easy to fabricate, weld, and maintain, offering operational efficiency and longevity. Despite the emergence of alternative materials, the widespread use of carbon steel pipes persists due to their reliability, affordability, and proven track record in meeting industry standards and specifications.

As the name suggests is a pipe without a seam or a
weld-joint in contrast to Seam or Welded pipe. Seamless pipe
can withstand large pressure as compared to a seam / welded
pipes.

ERW Pipes are manufactured by method of electric resistance
welding. Though weaker than seamless, ERW pipes are good
options for low pressure and civil applications.
