Q345B seamless steel pipe

Q345B Seamless Steel Pipe

Product Overview:
Q345B seamless steel pipe is a low-alloy, high-strength structural steel pipe manufactured according to the Chinese standard GB/T 1591. It offers reliable mechanical properties including good tensile strength, toughness, and weldability, making it widely used in construction, engineering, and industrial applications. Q345B is suitable for use in moderate temperature environments and can handle considerable pressure and load.

Mechanical Properties:
This grade provides a yield strength of approximately 345 MPa with balanced tensile strength and elongation to ensure durability and resistance to deformation. Q345B steel has good impact toughness at room temperature, supporting its use in general structural applications and moderate-load pipelines. Its chemical composition is optimized to provide good weldability and fabrication ease.

Manufacturing and Sizes:
Q345B seamless pipes are produced via hot rolling or hot expansion to ensure uniform wall thickness and smooth surface finish. They come in a wide range of diameters, thicknesses, and lengths, customized to meet specific project requirements. Delivery conditions include hot rolled, normalized, or thermomechanically treated states depending on customer needs.

Advantages:
Q345B seamless pipes are cost-effective with strong mechanical performance and good toughness. Their versatility and weldability make them suitable for a variety of structural and pressure-bearing applications. The pipes meet stringent quality standards, ensuring consistency and reliability in use.

Applications:
Commonly used in construction frameworks, bridges, machinery parts, pressure vessels, and pipelines for water, oil, and gas transport. The pipes are suitable for manufacturing components subject to moderate mechanical stresses and environmental conditions.

Quality Assurance:
All pipes undergo thorough inspections including ultrasonic testing, hydrostatic pressure testing, and dimensional verification. Mill test certificates are provided, and third-party inspection options are available to ensure compliance with project standards. Optional impact testing and other certifications can be arranged to suit customer requirements.
