Introduction of ASTM A53
ASTM A53(also referred to as ASME SA53 pipe) is a carbon steel alloy, which can be used as structural steel or for low-pressure pipelines and is also acceptable for ordinary uses in steam, water, gas and air lines.The alloy specifications are set by ASTM International in the specifications ASTM A53 / A53M.
ASTM A53 Steel Pipe Specifications
A53 pipe comes in three types (F, E, S) and two grades (A, B).
A53 Type F is manufactured with a furnace butt weld or may have a continuous weld (Grade A only)
A53 Type E has an electric resistance weld (Grades A and B)
A53 Type S is a seamless pipe and found in Grades A and B)
A53 Grade B Seamless is our most polar product under this specification and A53 pipe is commonly dual certified to A106 B Seamless pipe.
Pipe ordered under this specification is intended for mechanical and pressure applications and is also acceptable for ordinary uses in steam, water, gas, and air lines. It is suitable for welding, and suitable for forming operations involving coiling, bending, and flanging, subject to the following qualifications:
1.Type F is not intended for flanging.
2.When Types S and E are required for close coiling or cold bending, Grade A is the preferred grade. This provision is not intended to prohibit the cold bending of Grade B pipe.
3.Type E is furnished either nonexpanded or cold expanded at the option of the manufacturer.
Scope
ASTM A53 pipe covers Seamless and Welded, Black and Hot-Dipped Galvanized nominal (average) wall pipe for coiling, bending, flanging and other special purposes and is suitable for welding. Continuous-Welded pipe is not intended for flanging. Purpose for which pipe is intended should be stated on order.

Production process of ASTM A53
Seamless steel pipe manufacturing process is divided into hot-rolled and cold seamless pipe.
1.Production process of hot-rolled seamless steel pipe: tube billet → heating → perforation → three-roller/cross-rolling & continuous rolling → de-pipe → sizing → cooling → straightening → hydraulic test → marking → seamless steel pipe with leverage effect Detected.
2. Production process of cold drawn seamless steel tubes: tube blank → heating → perforation → heading → annealing → pickling → oiling → multiple cold drawing → blank tube → heat treatment → straightening → hydraulic test → marking → storage.
Tips:Seamless pipe is often made by drawing a solid shape over a mandrel to form the configuration of a tube. Welded pipe is more commonly made by rolling a flat strip of material into a tube and joining the edges together with a longitudinal weld. The weld can be made by either Electric Resistance Welding (Type E) or by Furnace Butt Welded/Continuous Welding (Type F).
Applications of ASTM A53
1.Construction: the pipeline underneath, the groundwater, and the hot water transportation.
2.Mechanical processing, bearing sleeves, processing machinery parts, etc.
3. Electrical: Gas delivery, Hydroelectric power fluid pipeline
4.Anti-static tubes for wind power plants, etc.
Pre-Galvanizing Pipe is widely used in petroleum ,chemical industry, construction, shipbuilding, communications, electricity and underground gas pipelines and many other fields.
Pre-Galvanizing Pipe is galvanizing, Zinc layer is an electroplating layer, and zinc layer is separately stratified with the steel tube matrix.
Pre-galvanized steel pipe is the treatment of steel pipe before galvanizing: degreasing treatment, derusting treatment, phosphating treatment, drying treatment.
Hot dipped galvanized steel pipe is in manufacturing process using steel pipes of removed rust dipped into zinc liquid of 500℃ temperatures, and making steel surface attached zinc layer so as to achieve the purpose of anti-corrosion.
Hot galvanizing process specially suitable for kinds of strong-acid, alkali fog and other strong corrosive conditions. This kinds of fastener used a lot in outside of steel tower contribution.
Black steel pipes have a variety of use. Thanks to their strength and needs for little maintenance. They tend to be used for transporting gas and water to rural areas and urban areas or for conduits that protect electrical wiring and deliver high pressure steam and air. In addition, black steel pipes are also used in oil and petroleum industries for piping large quantities of oil through remote areas.
Other uses of black steel pipes include gas distribution inside and outside homes, water wells and sewage systems. However, black steel pipes are never used for transporting potable water due to the fact that they tend to corrode in water and mineral of the pipe will dissolve into the water and clog the line as well.

Seamless pipes are manufactured by extruding the metal to the desired length. Thus, they do not have any joint in its cross-section throughout its length. seamless pipes are marketed on an outdated myth that it does not have flaws but that welded has an inherent flaw throughout the length of each tube, as stated above. Intuitively this concept is easily accepted by purchasers and designers with limited experience with the various products.
Steel porp refers to the use of steel pipe, H-shaped steel, angle steel, etc. to enhance the stability of the engineering structure. Generally, it is an inclined connecting member, and the most common are herringbone and cross shapes. Steel supports are widely used in subways and foundation pits. Because the steel support can be recycled and reused, it is economical and environmentally friendly.
Steel coil is sheet metal supplied in coil form. Depending on the production method, such coil is classified as hot-rolled, cold-rolled, galvanised or polymer-coated . Steel coil is used across industry, the main consumers being the construction and machine-building sectors.
