Choosing Stainless Steel ERW Pipes from Bosega Pipes and Tubes ensures high-quality, corrosion-resistant pipes with excellent durability and strength. We provide reliable performance in demanding environments, and our electric resistance Welded (ERW) process guarantees superior precision and consistency in manufacturing.
**Stainless Steel ERW Pipes** are generally crafted from grades like 304, 316, and 316L, which provide outstanding corrosion resistance, solid mechanical properties, and a clean internal surface. The ERW process shapes stainless steel strips into round forms and welds the seam using electric resistance, eliminating the need for filler material. This method results in pipes that are strong, lightweight, and well-suited for low to medium pressure applications. The welded seam undergoes heat treatment and testing to ensure it meets both structural integrity and safety standards.
