Carbon steel Pipes for Chemical Processing

Specialized Carbon Steel Pipes for Chemical Industries

Chemical processing plants operate in demanding environments where pipes must endure aggressive conditions. Kwality Steelage’s carbon steel pipes are engineered to handle these challenges effectively. Our product range includes:

  • Seamless Carbon Steel Pipes: Perfect for high-pressure applications, ensuring a leak-proof and structurally sound system.
  • ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) Pipes: Lightweight and cost-effective, these pipes are ideal for medium-pressure transport of non-corrosive chemicals.
  • LSAW (Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welded) Pipes: Known for their robustness, LSAW pipes are used in the main transport lines of chemical plants.
  • Spiral-Welded Pipes: These pipes are highly versatile and reliable for low-pressure and secondary chemical transport systems.

Our API 5L and ASTM A106 carbon steel pipes, available in grades such as X42, X52, and X70, are designed to handle harsh chemicals and extreme operating conditions, ensuring long-term reliability.

Protective Coatings for Longevity

Chemical environments expose pipelines to corrosive substances, which can degrade materials over time. To counteract these effects, Kwality Steelage Pvt. Ltd. offers carbon steel pipes with advanced protective coatings, such as:

  • Fusion-Bonded Epoxy (FBE): Provides exceptional protection against chemical corrosion and abrasion.
  • Three-Layer Polyethylene (3LPE): Offers robust resistance to moisture, chemicals, and physical damage, extending the pipe’s life span.
  • Galvanized Coating: Adds a layer of rust resistance, making it suitable for mildly corrosive environments.

These coatings help reduce maintenance costs, improve durability, and ensure safe chemical transport for years to come.
