Water
pipes are tubes that carry pressurized fresh water to buildings. It is well
known that steel is one of the leading materials in the modern industry and
for many years it has been the favored material for water pipes. Such a large
application of steel water pipes and tubes is stipulated by their optimal excellent
properties: high values of strength and fracture stability in combination with
the reasonably good ductility and flexibility, tensile strength, elongation
and reduction in area.
Stainless steel water pipes sustain longtime exploitation such as friction and
corrosion as well as aging. Even after years of use, these pipes dont
practically change characteristics such as hardness and brittleness. Steel water
pipes installed underground are subject to corrosive forces unlike those subject
to above ground items. Forces due to soil, water and gases are kept in mind,
while designing steel water pipes. For underground application, welded and seamless
types of steel pipes are used for the construction of water pipelines.
