LSAW is an abbreviation for Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welding. The LSAW pipe production process begins with a plate, which is formed into a pipe by joining each side of the plate/strip longitudinally according to the required diameter, then welded with filler metal.
LSAW steel pipe is produced using a single plate as a raw material, where the steel plate is pressed (rolled) into a tube blank in a mold or forming machine. It then adopts double-sided submerged arc welding (often referred to as DSAW) and expands the diameter. The weld integrity is appropriately strong with uniformity and compactness.
LSAW Steel Pipe is categorized into UOE, RBE, and JCOE steel pipe based on its different forming methods.
