Additionally, there are standards such as GB/T 17396-1998 (Hot-rolled seamless steel tubes for hydraulic supports), GB 3093-1986 (High-pressure seamless steel tubes for diesel engines), GB/T 3639-1983 (Cold-drawn or cold-rolled precision seamless steel tubes), GB/T 3094-1986 (Cold-drawn seamless steel tubes with special shapes), GB/T 8713-1988 (Precision seamless steel tubes with inner diameter for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders), GB 13296-1991 (Stainless steel seamless steel tubes for boilers and heat exchangers), GB/T 14975-1994 (Structural stainless steel seamless steel tubes), GB/T 14976-1994 (Stainless steel seamless steel tubes for fluid transport), GB/T 5035-1993 (Seamless steel tubes for automotive propeller shaft sleeves), and API SPEC 5CT-2012 (Specification for casing and tubing).

  Classification of Seamless Pipes

  Seamless steel pipes are further classified into two types—hot-rolled (extruded) seamless pipes and cold-drawn (rolled) seamless pipes—depending on their manufacturing processes. In turn, cold-drawn (rolled) pipes are divided into two subcategories: round pipes and special-shaped pipes. Additionally, seamless steel pipes are categorized into several varieties based on their specific applications.

  1. GB/T 8162-2008 (Seamless Steel Tubes for Structural Purposes). Primarily used in general structural and mechanical applications. Representative materials (grades) include: carbon steels such as 20 and 45; alloy steels like Q345, 20Cr, 40Cr, 20CrMo, 30-35CrMo, and 42CrMo, among others.

  2. GB/T 8163-2008 (Seamless Steel Tubes for Fluid Transport). Primarily used in engineering projects and for fluid-carrying pipelines in large-scale equipment. Typical materials (grades) include 20, Q345, and others.

  3. GB3087-2008 (Seamless Steel Tubes for Low- and Medium-Pressure Boilers). Primarily used in industrial and domestic boilers for transporting low- and medium-pressure fluids. Commonly available materials include steel grades 10 and 20.

  4. GB5310-2008 (Seamless Steel Tubes for High-Pressure Boilers). Primarily used in power plants and nuclear power plant boilers for high-temperature, high-pressure fluid distribution headers and piping systems. Typical materials include 20G, 12Cr1MoVG, 15CrMoG, and others.

  5. GB5312-2009 (Seamless Steel Tubes Made of Carbon and Carbon-Manganese Steel for Marine Applications). Primarily used for Class I and II pressure-resistant tubes in marine boilers and superheaters. Representative material grades include 360, 410, and 460 steel grades, among others.

  6. GB6479-2013 (Seamless Steel Tubes for High-Pressure Fertilizer Equipment). Primarily used in fertilizer equipment for transporting high-temperature, high-pressure fluid pipelines. Typical materials include 20, 16Mn, 12CrMo, 12Cr2Mo, and others.

  7. GB9948-2013 (Seamless Steel Tubes for Petroleum Cracking). Primarily used in boilers, heat exchangers, and fluid-conveying pipelines at petroleum refineries. Commonly available materials include 20, 12CrMo, 1Cr5Mo, and 1Cr19Ni11Nb, among others.

  8. GB18248-2008 (Seamless Steel Tubes for Gas Cylinders). Primarily used in the manufacturing of various gas and hydraulic cylinders. Typical materials include 37Mn, 34Mn2V, 35CrMo, and others.

  Additionally, there are standards such as GB/T17396-1998 (Hot-rolled seamless steel tubes for hydraulic supports), GB3093-1986 (High-pressure seamless steel tubes for diesel engines), GB/T3639-1983 (Cold-drawn or cold-rolled precision seamless steel tubes), GB/T3094-1986 (Cold-drawn seamless steel tubes with special shapes), GB/T8713-1988 (Precision seamless steel tubes with inner diameter for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders), GB13296-1991 (Stainless steel seamless steel tubes for boilers and heat exchangers), GB/T14975-1994 (Structural stainless steel seamless steel tubes), GB/T14976-1994 (Stainless steel seamless steel tubes for fluid transport), GB/T5035-1993 (Seamless steel tubes for automotive half-shaft sleeves), and API SPEC5CT-2012 (Casing and tubing specifications), among others.
