Product Description
The Carbon ERW Steel Tube is a high quality seamless tubing made from carbon steel material. Its surface is treated with galvanized finish which adds resistance from rust and corrosion. This tubing type has the standard AISI and is heated with hot rolled technique. It is also alloyed with stainless steel which makes it more durable and long-lasting.
FAQs of Carbon ERW Steel Tube:
Q: What is ERW Steel Tube?
A: ERW stands for Electric Resistance Welding. It is a type of pipe made from strips of hot rolled steel that are passed through a series of rollers and formed into a tube shape. The edges are then welded together using an electric current to create a strong, durable seam.
Q: What is Carbon Steel?
A: Carbon Steel is a common type of steel that has a high percentage of carbon content in it. This material is known for its strength, durability, and hardness. It is commonly used in the construction and manufacturing industries for its toughness and resistance to wear and tear.
Q: What is the difference between carbon steel and stainless steel?
A: The main difference between these two materials is that carbon steel contains a higher percentage of carbon content while stainless steel has a higher percentage of chromium and nickel content. Stainless steel is more resistant to rust and corrosion compared to carbon steel.
Q: What does the galvanized surface treatment mean?
A: Galvanization is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to the surface of steel or iron to prevent rust and corrosion. The zinc reacts with the oxygen in the air to form a protective layer that helps to keep the metal underneath from corroding.
Q: What is the advantage of seamless tubing?
A: Seamless tubing is stronger and more durable than welded tubing because there are no weak points caused by welding. It is also smoother on the inside, making it easier for liquids and gases to flow through. Seamless tubing is commonly used in high-pressure applications where strength and reliability are critical.
