Spiral pipe

Spiral welded pipe, also often called helically welded pipe, is one of the more common pipe materials used in industries such as marine, chemical, petrochemical, and other similar sectors.

Spiral welded pipes are also widely used in countries like the Philippines for their ideal mechanical characteristics, such as their ability to handle high amounts of pressure. You can find them in many everyday applications.

That said, this kind of pipe may not be a familiar material for everyone. To help you learn more, here is everything you need to know about spiral welded pipe in the Philippines:

What is Spiral Welded Pipe?

A spiral welded pipe is a commonplace piping material in various industrial and urban sectors. They’re known for their pressure resistance, and they can be used for a variety of applications. Some common uses (though we go in-depth on this later) include piling, structural applications, water and gas transportation, and various piping systems.

Aside from its ideal pressure resistance, a spiral welded pipe is a valued material for the following advantages:

• Having a spiral-like seam allows them to divert stress more efficiently than a straight seam pipe, which contributes to its pressure resistance.
• Spiral welded pipe is also more flexible and customizable than some piping materials. It can be produced in larger diameters and longer lengths with varying levels — without compromising its structural integrity or strength. To put it in numbers, compared to a straight seam welded pipe, a spiral welded pipe’s wall thickness can be reduced by 10% to 25% while withstanding greater pressures.
• Producing spiral welded pipe is also generally efficient and cost-effective. This is because spiral steel pipe can be continuously produced. In theory, manufacturers can create infinitely long pipes using the same steel strip, with only small losses when head and tail cutting. This improves the utilization rate of the manufacturer’s raw steel.
• Manufacturing is also flexible, and easy to mechanize and automate, further improving spiral welded pipe’s efficiency.
