API 5L Grade B Pipe Manufacturing Process

The Rolling and Welding Stage

To begin our process, we first need to go through the rolling and welding stage. The stainless steel is placed through a checking process and cut at the edges in this stage.

Cleaning and Warming Stage

The rolled stainless steel pipes thus manufactured are cut to the required lengths depending upon the industrial demand.

Cold-Drawing Stage

Sometimes, the required size isn’t obtained when the steel is brought through the mill directly. When using the cold-drawing process, the desired size is achieved when the pipes and tubing are coated with oxalic and soap solution and dragged over die plugs—the oxalic and soap solution help reduce friction when going through the cold cycle.

The Finishing Process

The final process is the finisher. Once the process of manufacturing stainless steel pipes and tubing is completed, you’ll now have to take them to a jet printer.
