What are the differences between stainless steel thick wall pipe and stainless steel thin wall pipe in addition to the difference in pipe wall?

Stainless steel thick wall pipe is a steel pipe with a ratio of outer diameter to wall thickness less than 20, so do you know the difference between it and stainless steel thin wall pipe?

First of all, judging from the name, we can know that the most obvious difference between stainless steel thick wall tubes and stainless steel thin wall tubes is the difference in wall thickness.

Then in addition to the difference in the thickness of the pipe wall, the stainless steel thick wall pipe and the stainless steel thin wall pipe have the following differences.

1. Process

The production process of thick wall stainless steel pipe is hot rolling technology, while the production process of thin wall stainless steel pipe is cold drawing technology.

2. Units of measurement

General wall thickness/pipe diameter equal to 0.05 is the divide between stainless steel thick wall pipe and stainless steel thin wall pipe, wall thickness/pipe diameter greater than 0.05 is stainless steel thick wall pipe, wall thickness/pipe diameter less than 0.05 is stainless steel thin wall pipe.

3. Use

Stainless steel thick wall pipe is mostly used in hollow parts blank, pressure and important pipes, stainless steel thin wall pipe is mostly used in pipes.

These aspects are the obvious difference between the two, and our users mainly choose which tube to use according to their actual needs.
The appearance of the stainless steel thick wall pipe has a certain section, and the whole body has no seams, which is actually hollow inside, and the general shape is square, round, etc., which is used for the transportation of fluids. Compared with traditional solid steel, it has higher compressive strength and lighter volume, and is an ideal economic steel pipe. Stainless steel thick wall pipe can also be used to make rings, which can increase the utilization rate of materials to a large extent, simplify the production process, shorten the production cycle, and stainless steel thick wall pipe also has a great role in the manufacturing of some weapons, such as the production of gun barrels. Stainless steel thick wall pipe can be divided into circular pipe and reducing pipe, the two kinds of pipe circumference length is the same, in which the round pipe transport fluid more, the force inside the pipe is uniform, but the shaped steel pipe in bending better than the round pipe, so we can see that different types of stainless steel thick wall pipe should be selected for different use requirements.
