Pipes and tubes are cylindrical hollow structures used for the transportation of fluids, gases, or other materials. They play a crucial role in various industries, including plumbing, construction, oil and gas, manufacturing, and infrastructure development. Pipes and tubes are typically made from various materials such as metals, plastics, and ceramics. Common metals used for pipes and tubes include steel, copper, aluminum, and stainless steel. Each material has its own advantages and is selected based on the specific application requirements.
Pipes and tubes come in a range of sizes and dimensions, including different diameters and wall thicknesses. These specifications depend on the intended use and the flow requirements of the substance being transported.
Pipes are typically manufactured using two methods: seamless or welded. Seamless pipes are formed without any welding, while welded pipes are made by welding the edges of a flat steel sheet into a tube shape. Pipes are primarily used for the transportation of fluids, while tubes have a broader range of applications, including structural uses.
