Description

Product Introduction

Spiral welded pipe is a steel pipe welded by spiral forming process with steel plate or steel strip as raw material. It has the advantages of high strength, large diameter and low cost. It is widely used in oil, gas, water conservancy, construction and other fields. Its flexible specifications and excellent performance make it an important material in the industrial field with broad market prospects. By selecting steel strips that meet the requirements, pre-treatment such as straightening and trimming is performed. The steel strip is rolled into a tube at a spiral angle by a forming machine. The weld is welded by submerged arc welding or high-frequency welding. The weld quality is then ensured by grinding and ultrasonic testing. The welded pipe is then sized and straightened to ensure dimensional accuracy and straightness. Finally, non-destructive testing and anti-corrosion treatment are performed to ensure product quality.

Product Features
1. High strength: The weld of the spiral welded pipe is distributed in a spiral shape, with uniform force and high overall strength.
2. Large diameter: Spiral welded pipes can produce steel pipes with larger diameters, usually ranging from Φ219mm to Φ3000mm, or even larger.
3. Flexible length: The length of the spiral welded pipe can be customized according to demand, usually 6 meters to 18 meters.
4. Low cost: Compared with seamless steel pipes, the production cost of spiral welded pipes is lower and suitable for large-scale use.
5. Strong applicability: Spiral welded pipes can choose materials, wall thickness and surface treatment methods according to different needs.



Application Fields
1.Oil and gas transportation: Pipelines used to transport oil and gas over long distances.
2.Water conservancy projects: used for water pipelines, drainage pipelines, etc.
3.Building structures: used for large building structures such as bridges, docks, and pile foundations.
4.Chemical industry: used to transport chemical media.
5.Heating projects: Pipelines used to transport hot water or steam.

Product Parameters

Size parameters

Outer diameter (OD): The outer diameter of spiral welded pipes ranges from φ219mm to φ3000mm, or even larger. Outer diameter is an important parameter in design and use
Wall thickness (WT): The wall thickness ranges from 5mm to 25mm, depending on the use requirements. Thick-walled pipes are mostly used in high-pressure and high-strength situations
Length: The length of spiral welded pipes is usually 6m to 12m, and can also be customized according to customer needs
Spiral angle: The spiral angle is generally 30° to 60°, and the size of the angle affects the forming and welding quality of the steel pipe
Weld length: Since the weld of the spiral welded pipe is spiral, its weld length is longer than that of the straight welded pipe, usually 1.2 to 1.5 times the circumference of the steel pipe.
