Cold drawn steel pipe

Steel pipe cold drawing is a common steel pipe forming method that changes the size and shape of the steel pipe by reducing the steel pipe from a larger diameter to a smaller diameter. This process is performed at room temperature and is commonly used to manufacture precision fittings and tubing to ensure a high degree of dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

The purpose of cold drawing processing

1. Precision dimensional control: Cold drawing processing can be used to manufacture steel pipes with highly precise dimensions, usually for applications that require tight control of the inner diameter, outer diameter, and wall thickness.

2. Surface quality: Cold drawing can improve the surface quality of steel pipes, reduce defects and unevenness, thereby improving the reliability and performance of the pipe.

3. Change the shape: Cold drawing can also be used to change the cross-sectional shape of steel pipes, such as turning round pipes into square, hexagonal or other shapes.

Cold drawn applications

1. Precision pipe fittings manufacturing: Cold drawing is usually used to manufacture high-precision pipe fittings, such as precision bearings, auto parts, instruments and meters, etc.

2. Pipe manufacturing: It can also be used to manufacture pipes that require high precision and surface quality.

3. Mechanical parts manufacturing: It can be used to manufacture various mechanical parts, where the accuracy of size and shape is crucial.

Cold drawing of steel pipes is a highly precise process that often requires specialized equipment and techniques to ensure that the final product meets high accuracy and quality requirements. It has a wide range of applications in manufacturing, machining and other industries.
