Submerged Arc Welded (SAW) Pipe is a type of pipe used in the construction of pipelines. It is made by welding together strips of steel that have been cut to length and then formed into a cylindrical shape. The welding is done in a submerged arc welding process, which is a type of arc welding that uses a consumable electrode and a flux-coated electrode to create an arc between the two. The arc is submerged in a flux, which helps to protect the weld from oxidation and other contaminants. The welded pipe is then tested for strength and integrity before being used in the pipeline. SAW Pipe is used in a variety of pipeline applications, including oil and gas, water, and wastewater. It is often used in long-distance pipelines due to its strength and durability. It is also used in pipelines that require high pressure or high temperature. Some companies in the SAW Pipe market include Tenaris, Vallourec, U.S. Steel, and JFE Steel. Show Less Read more
