What is LSAW Pipe?

LSAW Pipe stands for Longitudinally Submerged Arc Welding pipe. Pipes manufactured by this process are subjected to expanding operation in order to relieve internal stresses and obtain a perfect dimensional tolerance.

 

Longitudinally welded steel pipes are used in onshore and offshore oil and gas pipelines requiring critical service, high performance and tight tolerances. LSAW pipes are also used in conveyance of flammable & nonflammable liquids, and as structural members in construction projects.

LSAW pipe (longitudinal Submerged Arc Welding Pipe)  is fromed by JCOE with one straight welded seam, the outer diameters usually from 323mm to 1420mm. When the outer diameter is 914.4mm above, it’s allowed two straight welded seams. LSAW pipe is used to convey low pressure liquid meida or high pressure petroleum or natural gas, and can be also used widely in structural supports or foundation. The advantage for LSAW type is they could produce more thick wall thickness of pipes, maximum to 120mm.
