Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between ERW and seamless stainless steel pipe?
A: ERW pipe is manufactured by rolling metal and welding the seam, offering cost-effective production with consistent wall thickness. It is suitable for many applications, including water supply. Seamless pipe has no weld seam, but is more expensive. Our ERW pipe meets the same quality standards for pressure and durability. -
Q: Can this pipe be used for hot water supply?
A: Yes, 304 stainless steel can handle temperatures up to 400°C. However, for continuous hot water above 60°C, we recommend consulting with our technical team to ensure proper expansion allowance. -
Q: Are the beveled ends suitable for socket welding?
A: The beveled ends are designed for butt welding. For socket welding, we can provide plain ends or square cut ends upon request. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our standard MOQ is 1 ton for stock sizes. For custom lengths or special finishes, MOQ may vary. Please contact us for details. -
Q: Do you provide third-party inspection?
A: Yes, we can arrange inspection by SGS, BV, or other accredited agencies at buyer's cost. Our own QC team also issues mill test certificates. -
Q: How long is the delivery time?
A: For standard sizes, delivery is typically 7-15 days after deposit. For custom orders, it may take 20-30 days depending on quantity. -
Q: Is this pipe suitable for underground installation?
A: Yes, 304 stainless steel has good corrosion resistance in most soil conditions. For highly corrosive environments, we recommend additional protective coating or using 316L grade. -
Q: What packaging do you use for export?
A: Pipes are bundled with steel straps, wrapped in plastic or waterproof paper, and secured in containers. Wooden crates are available for fragile surfaces.
