Carbon Steel Pipes

Carbon Steel Pipes & Its Uses:

Carbon Steel Pipes is the most commonly used material in all industries for process piping. It is preferred due to its wide availability, high strength, and good weldability, for example, screwed, socket-welded, and butt-welded. They are known as carbon steel pipes as carbon is the main alloying element and its properties are defined by the amount of carbon it has. Carbon Steel pipe should be selected for the required strength and durability required for the application checking the requirement of Yield Strength, Tensile Strength, ductility, and machinability required to join it. The pipe must withstand the pressure, temperature, and corrosion conditions of the application. These requirements are met by selecting a pipe made to an appropriate ASTM or API standard.
