SSAW stands for Spiral Submerged Arc Welded, and is a type of steel pipe that's made by rolling and welding a steel strip in a spiral pattern.
SSAW pipes are used for a variety of applications, including:
King piles for combination walls
Low-pressure fluid transmissions
Petrochemical industry plants
SSAW pipes have several advantages, including: High pressure
SSAW pipes can withstand high pressure, making them ideal for transporting fluids in challenging environments.
The spiral welding process allows for a larger diameter, increasing the overall capacity of the pipe.
The spiral welding process ensures a consistent and uniform weld, which contributes to the pipe's structural integrity.
The same size steel strip can be used to produce different diameters of SSAW pipes.
The welding seam is designed to minimize primary stress, providing good performance under stress conditions.
SSAW pipes are also known as HSAW pipes or Helical SAW.
Spiral welded pipes are pipes made by twisting metal strips into a spiral and welding the edges together. They are used in a variety of industries, including water distribution, oil refineries, shipyards, and petrochemical plants.
Here are some characteristics of spiral welded pipes:
Strength: Spiral welded pipes are strong and have a high-pressure rating. They can withstand extreme weather conditions and have a strong tensile strength.
Corrosion resistance: Spiral welded pipes are resistant to corrosion.
Uniformity: Spiral welded pipes have a uniform diameter and wall thickness throughout the length of the pipe.
Cost: Spiral welded pipes are less expensive than seamless pipes.
Manufacturing: Spiral welded pipes are manufactured using a process that includes submerged arc welding (SAW).
Customization: Spiral welded pipes can be customized to accommodate various diameters and lengths.
