ASTM A423 COR-TEN Straight Seam Electric Welded Steel Pipe Fixed Length Tube For Machinery Manufacturing

Introduction

The ASTM A423 COR-TEN straight seam electric welded steel pipe fixed length tube is a specialized steel product widely used in machinery manufacturing. This article will explore the material, specification, key features, chemical composition, mechanical properties, steel grade, applications, and possible alternative grades of this product.

Material and Specification

The ASTM A423 COR-TEN straight seam electric welded steel pipe is made from weathering steel, which is also known as COR-TEN steel. This high-strength, low-alloy steel contains additional elements that improve its corrosion resistance. The pipe is produced through an electric welding process, ensuring a smooth and consistent structure.

The standard specification for this steel pipe includes the following requirements:

• Outer diameter range: 21.3mm to 660mm
• Wall thickness range: 1.8mm to 22.2mm
• Length: Fixed length, typically 6 meters or as per customer requirements

Key Features

The ASTM A423 COR-TEN straight seam electric welded steel pipe offers several key features that make it suitable for machinery manufacturing applications:

1. Corrosion Resistance: This weathering steel pipe develops a protective oxide layer on its surface, preventing further corrosion and reducing the need for maintenance.
2. High Strength: The steel's composition enhances its mechanical properties, providing excellent strength and durability to withstand heavy loads.
3. Weldability: The electric welding process used in manufacturing this pipe ensures strong and reliable joints, ensuring efficient assembly in machinery manufacturing.
