What is a seamless tube used for?

Seamless tubes (SMLS) are generally made of carbon structural steel, low alloy structural steel, etc., and their output is large. They can also be customized and processed according to different needs, and are widely used in various fields. So what are the common uses of this type of steel tube?

1. Oil and natural gas transportation
Seamless steel tubes can be used to transport oil and natural gas from oil wells to the surface, as well as transport these materials to various refining equipment.

2. Chemical industry

Seamless steel tubes are suitable for the transportation of chemicals and dangerous goods, such as various acid and alkali solutions, oxidants, petroleum and chemicals, arsenic and halogens, etc.

3. Machinery manufacturing
Seamless steel tubes are widely used in manufacturing various parts and components of machinery, such as cylinders of air compressors, bearings supporting spindles, joints and bearings in brackets, etc.

4. Construction projects
Seamless tubes are suitable for a variety of ventilation and hydraulic ducts, refrigeration equipment, HVAC equipment and ducting in buildings. In most cases, seamless steel tubes are used when constructing pipelines, especially for underground pipeline transportation. In order to ensure the sealing effect and strength, such steel tubes are generally used. Long-term use underground is also guaranteed. , or when extracting groundwater or delivering hot water from boilers, such pipes are also used.

5. Aerospace industry
Seamless tubes are suitable for manufacturing aerospace equipment, missile equipment, engines, etc.

6. Electric power industry
Seamless steel tubes are suitable for manufacturing generators, transformers, transmission lines, etc.

There are some special application fields that require the use of special seamless steel tubes. Therefore, we still have to select steel pipes based on our actual conditions. You can also contact the manufacturer directly for purchase to ensure that the steel pipe meets our needs.
