ERW pipe (Electric Resistance Welded) are manufactured by cold forming a flat sheet of steel into a cylindrical shape. Then current is passed between the two edges of the steel to heat the steel to a point at which the edges are forced together to form a bond without the use of welding filler material. Initially this manufacturing process used low frequency A.C. current to heat the edges. This low frequency process was not efficient and it was difficult to control.
Therefore, high frequency ERW (HFW) process came into existence. In HFW process, high frequency current is passed between the edges which melts the surface of the edges and forms a very strong weld zone without using any filler material. The HFW process provides superior weld integrity and flexibility compared to other methods available for joining steels.

Different Ends of ERW Pipe
There are four types of ends for ERW steel pipes. Plain end, beveled end, grooved end, and threaded end. Tell us which type you interested in?
Plain End
Firstly, it is plain end which do not need exteral process after finish producing.
Beveled End
Secondly, beveled end.
Grooved End ERW Pipe
When pipe pretreatment performed, rolling grooved joints are used as pipe fittings. Its operating principle is the use of rolling groove rolling machine driven rotating pipe.
Threaded End
The best known and most widely used connection where the pipe thread provides both the mechanical joint and the hydraulic seal is the NPT. NPT has a tapered male and female thread which seals with tape or jointing compound.
Different Coatings of ERW Pipe
Various steel pipe external coating projects currently implemented by our company including single-layer/double-layer FBE, 2PE 3PE,3PP and other anti-corrosion coatings with the performed standards such as DIN30670, DIN3067 1, DIN30678, CAN/CSA-Z24521-M92, SY/T4013-2002 and SY/T0315-97 etc.
