Carbon steel pipe is a long-lasting material formed from carbon steel, an alloy containing carbon and iron. Carbon steel pipes find application in various heavy-duty sectors such as ships, distillers, infrastructure, and chemical fertilizer equipment because of their strength and capacity to bear stress.
Doshi Impex India is a leading carbon steel pipes and carbon steel threaded pipe fittings supplier providing a variety of carbon steel pipe diameters, including custom sizes.
Carbon Steel Pipe Properties
Carbon steel is an alloy composed of carbon and iron, with carbon content ranging from 2.1 percent by weight. A higher carbon percentage will enhance the strength and hardness of steel, but it will also make it less ductile. Compared to other steels, carbon steel has excellent hardness and strength characteristics and is affordable.
Carbon steel has excellent hardness, wear-resistance, strength, and anti-corrosion characteristics.
- Yield Point or Proof Stress (T≦16mm) 245 min N/mm²
- Tensile stress ranging from 400 – 510 N/mm²
- Elongation from (5 mm＜T≦16 mm) 17min %
Carbon Steel Piping advantages
Pipes made of carbon steel are safe and long-lasting. It is stress-resistant and does not buckle under severe environmental conditions like extreme weather or high pressure, making it an excellent material in structural applications.
As a result of carbon steel’s tremendous strength, it is possible to make thinner carbon steel pipes with less material while transporting large volumes. These properties make carbon steel pipes cost-effective. Along with material savings, carbon steel is highly recyclable. This makes it an eco-friendly and affordable material.
Carbon steel pipe is a versatile material due to its manufacturing ease. Doshi Impex India offers carbon steel pipes in varying dimensions and thicknesses per project requirements. It is also simple to bend and cut to suit any requirement. It is also simple to connect to other pipe fittings such as joints, valves, flanges, and other hydraulic pipe fittings.
Carbon Steel Pipes Applications
Carbon structural steel tubing is a versatile material used in various applications. The following are some of the most typical application of carbon steel :
- Transporting Water
Carbon steel pipes are the most suitable material for the transportation of water, sewage, and other fluids. Steel pipe application are very resistant to stress and vibration, and as a result, changing shock pressure or water pressure from a water hammer has no detrimental impact on the pipes.
Traffic congestion puts significant strain on roadway bases, making carbon steel pipes the preferred material for installing water pipelines under highways and other major roadways.
- Industrial Heating, steam, and condensation
These pipes find applications in industrial procedures requiring high temperatures, severe cold, or transportation of gases like steam, and carbon steel pipes uses. For example, heating systems utilize straight-beaded, thin-walled, precision carbon steel pipes having low carbon content. These pipes have a zinc coating applied using heat treatment.
The pipes undergo extensive testing before using them in closed heating systems (with or without antifreeze). They also find use in synthetic and dry oil compressed air systems. Compressed air systems and sprinklers use internally galvanized pipes while circulating heating systems use internally galvanized carbon steel pipes.
- Applications in the Transportation and Automotive industries
Carbon steel pipes find extensive applications in the transport and automotive sector. They are particularly well suited for pipe lancing pipes and idlers of conveyor belts.
Other applications
- Boiler and condenser tubes
- Transporting oil, and natural gases
- Transportation of wastewater
- High-pressure applications
- Chemical Processing
- Transportation of sewage materials
- Bollard construction
- Shoring
- Shipbuilding
- Trash enclosures
- OEM applications
- Distillers
Choosing the suitable carbon steel pipe
The choice of a pipe is influenced not only by its physical characteristics, chemical composition, and cost. For example, carbon steel pipes are less costly than stainless steel pipes as their method of manufacture accounts for just a percentage of the price of the pipes. Along with the production process, pipe seams also make a difference in their selection.
Conclusion
Doshi Impex India is a leading carbon steel pipes and carbon steel threaded pipe fittings supplier. Their products have considerable benefits due to their ease of welding and shaping. In addition to our CS Tubes, created from high-grade raw materials, we also provide a comprehensive choice of carbon steel seamless tubes made according to industry standards and technology.
