What is a Seamless Steel Tube?
A seamless steel tube is a cylindrical hollow section manufactured without any welding seam or joint. Unlike welded tubes, which are produced by rolling and welding steel strips, seamless tubes are made from a solid round steel billet that is heated and pierced through the center to create a hollow shell. This process provides:
Uniform structure and strength across the tube
High resistance to pressure and stress
Leak-proof performance, crucial for fluid and gas transport
Enhanced corrosion and heat resistance
Because of these qualities, seamless tubes are widely preferred for high-pressure, high-temperature, and critical applications.
