description

HIGH PRESSURE STEEL PIPE is engineered for critical fluid transport in energy, petrochemical, and hydraulic systems. Manufactured from high-grade alloy/carbon steel (P91, X70, 316L) via seamless or longitudinal/submerged arc welding processes, it undergoes rigorous heat treatment and NDT to withstand extreme pressure and temperature. Features multi-layer anti-corrosion and thermal insulation coatings, ensuring integrity in corrosive, high-stress environments (e.g., subsea pipelines, steam lines).
