Straight seam steel pipes are steel pipes whose welds are parallel to the longitudinal direction of the steel pipe.

From the perspective of seamless steel pipe rolling technology, the following two points have formed restrictions on the further development of FFM rolling technology

Weld seam cracks mostly appear in the weld seam, showing a small hair shape, most of which occur in the superficial part of the weld seam, some can be seen with the naked eye, and some need to be carefully identified or even enlarged to find.

The forming methods of straight seam steel pipes include UOE forming method, roll forming method (CFE), CE forming, etc.

General boiler tubes are mainly used to make water wall tubes, boiling water tubes, superheated steam tubes, superheated steam tubes for locomotive boilers, large and small smoke tubes and arched brick tubes.

ERW steel pipe sizing refers to the use of special pass rolls to roll welded pipes to adjust round or special-shaped pipes with irregular sizes and shapes to finished pipes with regular shapes and sizes that meet the requirements of the standard.
