I.Carbon steel product Introduction:
The complex chemical and physical properties of the various grades of carbon steel pipe allow for a broad range of service usage. American Piping Products has the right grade, size and price to meet your requirements, including A/SA-106 GRADE B/C and API 5L X-42 thru X-70. A/SA-106 Grades B & C are utilized for services ranging from structural supports to steam drum headers with temperature ranges up to 800°F, while API 5L X Grades 42 thru 70 are utilized for the water and petroleum industry to transport liquids or as platforms on off-shore rigs.
Carbon steel piping is a durable material made from carbon steel, a steel alloy with iron and carbon. Because of its strength and ability to withstand stress, carbon steel pipe is used in a variety of heavy-duty industries like infrastructure, ships, distillers, and chemical fertilizer equipment.
Benefits of Carbon Steel Piping
Carbon steel piping is a durable material made from carbon steel, a steel alloy with iron and carbon. Because of its strength and ability to withstand stress, carbon steel pipe is used in a variety of heavy-duty industries like infrastructure, ships, distillers, and chemical fertilizer equipment.
The incredible strength of carbon steel means that carbon steel pipe can be made thinner and with less material while still being able to transport high volumes. This makes carbon steel piping a cost-effective material. Not only can less of it be used, but carbon steel is also recyclable, making it both environmentally-friendly and cost-effective.
Because it's easy to manufacture, carbon steel piping is a versatile material. We can make it in a variety of thicknesses and dimensions. It's also easy to cut and bent to fit wherever it's needed. Its also easily connected to joints, valves, and other pipe fittings.

A/SA-53 Seamless steel pipe
ASTM A53 pipe (also referred to as ASME SA53 pipe) is intended for mechanical and pressure applications and is also acceptable for ordinary uses in steam, water, gas and air lines. It is suitable for welding and for forming operations involving coiling, bending, and flanging, subject to certain qualifications.
American Piping Products stocks a full range of A53 pipe (SA53 Pipe) in:
Grade B
NPS 1/8" to 26" diameter
Schedules 10 through 160, STD, XH and XXH
Scope
ASTM A53 pipe covers Seamless and Welded, Black and Hot-Dipped Galvanized nominal (average) wall pipe for coiling, bending, flanging and other special purposes and is suitable for welding. Continuous-Welded pipe is not intended for flanging. Purpose for which pipe is intended should be stated on order.
Materials and Manufacture
The steel for both seamless and welded pipe shall be made by one or more of the following processes: open-hearth, electric furnace, or basic-oxygen. The weld seam of electric-resistance welded pipe in Grade B shall be heat treated after welding.

II.Galvanized steel pipe Introduction:
Galvanized pipe, also known as galvanized steel pipe, is divided into hot-dip galvanizing and electro-galvanizing. The hot-dip galvanizing layer is thick, with uniform plating, strong adhesion and long service life. The cost of electroplating is low, the surface is not very smooth, and its corrosion resistance is much worse than that of hot-dip galvanized pipes.
Hot dip galvanized pipe
The molten metal is reacted with an iron matrix to produce an alloy layer, thereby combining the substrate and the plating layer. Hot-dip galvanizing is to pickle the steel pipe first, in order to remove the iron oxide on the surface of the steel pipe, after pickling, it is washed by ammonium chloride or zinc chloride aqueous solution or a mixed aqueous solution of ammonium chloride and zinc chloride, and then fed. Hot dip plating tank. Hot-dip galvanizing has the advantages of uniform plating, strong adhesion and long service life. Most of the northern processes use galvanized strips to directly coil the zinc.
Cold galvanized pipe
Cold galvanizing is electrogalvanizing. The amount of galvanizing is very small, only 10-50g/m2, and its corrosion resistance is much worse than that of hot-dip galvanized pipes. Regular galvanized pipe manufacturers, in order to ensure quality, most do not use electro-galvanizing (cold plating). Only small companies with small equipment and old equipment use electro-galvanized steel, of course, their prices are relatively cheaper. In newly built houses, the use of cold-galvanized steel pipes as water supply pipes is prohibited.
Hot dip galvanizing process:
Workpiece degreasing → washing → pickling → washing → drying solvent dip fluxing preheated hot dip galvanized → cooling → finishing → rinsing → drying → passivation test
Cold-galvanized process:
Chemical degreasing → washing → hot water hot water electrolysis degreasing → washing → washing → strong corrosive galvanized iron alloy → washing → washing → light → → washing → drying passivation
APPEARANCE OF HOT-DIP GALVANIZING AND COLD GALVANIZING
Cold galvanizing looks more smooth, bright, color passivation process plating layer is yellow-green in color, was colorful. Plating layer was bluish-white or white with white passivation process was green, white coating passivation process and the sun was significant Colorful angle. The complex workpiece angular edges parts prone to "electrical burning" from gloomy, the parts of the zinc layer thick. Yin corner site is easy to form a current dead undercurrent gray area and the area zinc layer is thinner. The workpiece overall zinc tumor, caking phenomenon.
Hot dip galvanized look a little rough compared to the electro-galvanized, silvery white, look prone process waterlines and a few drops of tumor is more obvious, especially in the one end of the workpiece. Hot dip galvanized zinc layer than a few times of the electro-galvanized thick corrosion protection is several times that of the electro-galvanized.
