SSAW Pipe

SSAW Pipe Manufacturer & Supplier

Spiral Submerged Arc Welded (SSAW) pipe, also known as spiral welded pipe, is a highly reliable and cost-effective solution widely used in industries such as oil & gas, water supply, construction, and infrastructure. Manufactured using a spiral welding technique, SSAW steel pipes are known for their large diameters, excellent toughness, and ability to withstand high-pressure environments.

At Emirerri Steel, we specialize in supplying high-quality SSAW steel pipes that meet international standards like API, ASTM, EN, and ISO. With advanced production facilities and strict quality control, we ensure our SSAW pipes provide exceptional performance in demanding industrial applications.

What is an SSAW Pipe?

An SSAW pipe is manufactured by rolling a hot-rolled steel coil into a spiral shape and welding the edges together using the submerged arc welding (SAW) process. This spiral formation allows the production of large-diameter pipes with relatively thin walls, making them cost-efficient without compromising strength.

Key Features of SSAW Steel Pipe:

  • Large diameter availability (up to 100 inches)

  • High-pressure and load-bearing capacity

  • Smooth internal and external weld finish

  • Cost-effective production for long pipelines

  • Flexibility in wall thickness and length

Manufacturing Process of SSAW Steel Pipe

The production of SSAW welded steel pipe involves several stages:

  1. Steel Coil Preparation – High-quality hot-rolled coils are selected.

  2. Forming – The steel coil is uncoiled and continuously formed into a spiral shape.

  3. Welding – The spiral seam is welded internally and externally using submerged arc welding (SAW).

  4. Ultrasonic Testing – The weld seam undergoes continuous inspection for defects.

  5. Sizing & Shaping – Pipes are calibrated to meet precise dimensions.

  6. Hydrostatic Testing – Each pipe is tested to ensure it withstands high internal pressure.

  7. Finishing & Coating – Pipes may be coated with anti-corrosion materials for long-term durability.

Applications of SSAW Steel Pipe

Thanks to their versatility, SSAW steel pipes are used across multiple sectors:

  • Oil & Gas Transmission – Long-distance pipelines for crude oil and natural gas.

  • Water Supply & Drainage – Transport of potable water, sewage, and industrial wastewater.

  • Construction & Infrastructure – Bridges, piling, and structural frameworks.

  • Offshore Engineering – Marine pipelines and subsea applications.

  • Agricultural Irrigation – Large-scale irrigation and drainage systems.

Advantages of SSAW Pipe

  • Large Diameter Capability – Suitable for high-volume fluid transportation.

  • Cost-Effective – Lower production costs compared to seamless and LSAW pipes.

  • High Strength & Durability – Designed to handle high pressure and heavy loads.

  • Flexible Lengths – Pipes can be produced in continuous lengths, reducing weld joints in pipelines.

  • Compliance with Global Standards – Manufactured as per API, ASTM, EN, and ISO norms.
