What is the cause of transverse crack on the surface of seamless steel pipe

Update time : 2023-01-13 09:19:26

　　Under the corresponding mechanical conditions, various factors that reduce the plasticity of ASTM A335 P5 Seamless Steel Pipe during processing will increase the chances of internal transverse cracks. Therefore, annealing quality and elimination of hydrogen embrittlement are very important in the production of thick-walled seamless steel pipe.

　　In addition to the additional stress in the axial direction, there are additional stress in the tangential direction in the process of empty drawing. Longitudinal crack is caused by additional tangential tension stress produced during pull-out.

　　Hebei shengtian pipe-fitting group Co., ltd is usually used if there is no special requirement. Seamless steel pipe is made of No. 20 steel, which is not hardened and has no tempering brittleness. The cold deformation has high plasticity and is generally used for bending, calendering, bending and hammer arch processing. The welding performance of arc welding and contact welding is very good, and the thickness of gas welding is relatively small. Generally, it is used for manufacturing under conditions of low pressure resistance but high toughness requirement.

　　Seamless steel pipe is made of ingot or solid billet through perforation, and then hot-rolled, cold-rolled or cold-drawn. Seamless steel pipe plays an important role in China's steel pipe industry. It is also one of the advantages of the seamless steel pipe that its manufacturing process is rigorous and it is not allowed to make a millimeter difference outside the specified scope.

How to Choose Carbon Steel Pipe Size?

Oct .20.2026

When selecting carbon steel pipe (CS Pipe) size, pipe diameter (NPS/DN), wall thickness (Schedule Number), and pressure rating are three interrelated core parameters. Their selection requires comprehensive calculation based on the system design pressure, flow rate, and medium characteristics.

DIN 1629 St37 St52 Seamless Steel Pipes

Oct .15.2026

　　DIN 1629 is a German industrial standard primarily used for the manufacture of seamless steel pipes for chemical equipment, piping, vessels, mechanical engineering components, and steel structures, requiring high strength. It includes three base material grades (St37.0, St44.0, and St52.0) and covers mechanical properties, chemical composition, and manufacturing requirements. In simple terms, it specifies high-quality seamless carbon and alloy steel tubes for pressure-bearing applications.

As an important part of boiler equipment, boiler tubes are responsible for multiple tasks such as transferring heat and withstanding pressure. The size selection of boiler tubes directly affects the performance and safety of the boiler. So, how to choose the size of boiler tubes?

API 5L SSAW Steel Pipe Definition and Grades

Oct .08.2026

API 5L SSAW Steel Pipe refers to spiral welded steel pipe manufactured according to the pipeline standard issued by the American Petroleum Institute, specifically API 5L.SSAW stands for Spiral Submerged Arc Welded, a manufacturing method in which steel coils are formed into a pipe shape and welded along a spiral seam using submerged arc welding technology.
