What Is ERW Steel Pipe?
ERW steel pipe is manufactured by cold-forming a flat sheet of steel into a cylindrical shape, then welding the seam using an electric resistance welding process. This technique does not use filler material, making it highly efficient while producing a clean, strong longitudinal weld. ERW pipe is often preferred for its smooth surface finish, uniform wall thickness, and cost-effectiveness.
At Crestwood Tubulars, we provide ERW pipe in a wide variety of diameters, wall thicknesses, and grades, suitable for both standard and custom applications. Whether your needs are structural or mechanical, we have the right pipe for the job.
Advantages of ERW Steel Pipe
- Consistent Quality – Uniformity in wall thickness and outer diameter ensures compatibility with fittings and systems.
- Cost-Effective – More affordable than seamless pipe and efficient to manufacture, making it ideal for large-scale projects.
- Strong Weld Integrity – The electric resistance weld is highly reliable for non-critical and moderate pressure applications.
- Customizable – Available in a range of sizes, coatings, and finishes.
Common Applications for ERW Pipe
Because of its combination of performance and affordability, ERW steel pipe is used in a wide range of industries and applications, including:
