Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) is a high-purity commercially pure nickel alloy with a nickel content exceeding 99.0%. It possesses excellent corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, and machinability.
Seamless vs Welded Pipes
Seamless pipes are formed in one step from steel billets through piercing, heating, and rolling processes, resulting in a seamless and uniform overall structure. They exhibit uniform pressure resistance and high compressive strength, especially under high temperature and pressure.
Welded pipes are formed by cold bending steel plates or strips and welding the seams together. They have visible weld seams and are more economical for general applications.
Application Areas
Seamless pipes are suitable for high pressure and high temperature conditions such as oil drilling, petrochemicals, power generation, aerospace, and nuclear industries. Welded pipes are suitable for medium and low-pressure pipelines, building structures, and general applications.
