MS and GI Pipe Difference

Galvanized iron pipes commonly used on water pipe lines, it is dipped into zinc for corrosion protection

GI Pipe is “Galvanized Iron” Pipe. Material ms is mild steel and gi is galvanized steel that has been hot dipped .These days the pipe will likely be made from steel rather than iron.
galvanized iron pipes commonly used on water pipe lines.

Mild steel is untreated and usually hot or cold rolled or in the case of pipe extruded while molten. Low carbon content and rusts in humid weather and can be bent easier than other steel. Its not black pipe used for gas, its not case hardened with cyanide, its not galvanized with zinc plating, its not blued like used for guns, its not cast like for cast iron furniture. Its the most affordable type of steel.

Mild steel pipe refers to the content of less than 0.25% carbon steel because of its low strength, low hardness and soft. It includes most of the part of ordinary carbon steel and high-quality carbon structural steel, mostly without heat treatment used in engineering structures, some carburizing heat treatment and other mechanical parts required for wear.
