  The use of API 5L ERW welded pipes for gas pipelines has the following advantages:

  1. Cost-effectiveness

  Low material cost: The production process of ERW welded pipes is relatively simple, with high material utilization and low cost.

  High production efficiency: Continuous production is fast and suitable for large-scale applications.

  2. High dimensional accuracy

  Uniform wall thickness: The wall thickness of ERW welded pipes is precisely controlled, and the uniformity is better than that of seamless pipes.

  Consistent outer diameter: The production process ensures consistent outer diameter dimensions for easy installation.

  3. Strength and toughness

  High strength: Through welding process and subsequent treatment, ERW welded pipes have high strength and can withstand high pressure.

  Good toughness: Appropriate processes make welded pipes have good toughness and adapt to complex terrain.

  4. Corrosion resistance

  Anti-corrosion treatment: ERW welded pipes can be treated with internal and external anti-corrosion treatment to extend their service life.

  Material selection: Corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel or alloy steel can be selected according to needs.

  5. Easy installation

  Flexible length: ERW welded pipes can be customized in length as needed, reducing on-site welding and improving efficiency.

  Easy connection: Standardized connection methods simplify the installation process.

  6. Environmental protection and sustainability

  Recyclable: ERW welded pipe materials can be recycled and reused, meeting environmental protection requirements.

  Energy-saving production: The production process is energy-saving and reduces carbon emissions.

  7. Wide application

  Strong adaptability: Suitable for various scenarios such as urban gas and industrial gas.

  Diversified needs: Specifications and materials can be adjusted according to different needs.

  API 5L ERW welded pipes have the advantages of low cost, high precision, good strength, corrosion resistance, convenient installation, environmental protection and wide application in gas pipelines. They are an ideal choice for gas transportation.

API 5L Carbon steel pipes (CS pipe) are a common pipeline material and are widely used in oil, natural gas, chemical and other fields. However, since their interior is easily affected by medium corrosion, their service life has become a focus of attention. Generally speaking, the service life of carbon steel pipes without internal anti-corrosion treatment is affected by many factors and is usually 3 to 15 years, which may be shorter under extreme conditions. The following is a detailed analysis and key influencing factors:
