Versatility and Applications of Steel Industrial Piping

Steel industrial pipes, such as ASTM A53 Grade B and ASTM A795, are essential components in a variety of industrial applications. Their strength, durability, and versatility make them an ideal choice for numerous industries.

ASTM A53 Grade B Pipes

  • Primary Use: Widely used in low-pressure and medium-pressure systems, including plumbing, heating, and structural applications.

  • Benefits: Known for their strength and durability, these pipes are designed to handle both water and non-corrosive fluids efficiently.

ASTM A795 Pipes

  • Primary Use: Commonly used in fire protection systems and sprinkler installations.

  • Benefits: Designed for use in standard pressure applications, offering reliable performance and long-term durability.

Stock Range

We maintain a wide inventory of steel piping, available in sizes ranging from 1/2″ to 8″, ensuring that we can meet the needs of various projects and applications.

Common Materials Behind Industrial Tubing

Industrial process piping relies on various materials to aim for safe and efficient transportation of chemicals and gases. Each material offers distinct advantages in strength, corrosion resistance, temperature tolerance, and cost, making the choice crucial for specific industrial process applications.

Types of Materials

  • Steel Known for its strength and durability.

  • Stainless Steel Offers exceptional corrosion resistance.

  • Copper Highly conductive and resistant to corrosion.

  • PVC and CPVC Lightweight, cost-effective, and resistant to a variety of chemicals.

  • Various Alloys Tailored properties for specialized applications.

Key Considerations

  • Type of Fluid or Gas Different materials are compatible with different types of fluids or gases.

  • Operating Conditions Temperature and pressure play a critical role in material selection.

  • Environmental Factors Consideration of the external environment where the piping system will be installed.
