ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) pipes are made by rolling metal and welding it longitudinally. These pipes, featuring a welded joint, are manufactured from strip/coil and can be produced up to 24” in outer diameter.
Benefits of ERW Pipes:
High Production Efficiency: Fast manufacturing processes.
Cost-Effective: Economical production.
Material Saving: Efficient use of raw materials.
Easy Automation: Suitable for automated production lines.
