MS (Mild Steel) pipes are essential in construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications. But have you ever wondered how these pipes are made? From selecting raw materials to delivering the final product, the pipe manufacturing process involves several critical steps.
At Mittal Traders, Kolkata, we provide high-quality MS pipes using the latest technology and strict quality standards. Here’s a step-by-step look at how MS pipes are manufactured.
1. Selection of Raw Materials
The process begins with high-quality mild steel (MS) sheets or coils. These materials are chosen based on:
- Strength and durability
- Corrosion resistance
- Flexibility and weldability
At Mittal Traders, Kolkata, we source premium-grade raw materials to ensure our pipes meet industry standards.
2. Cutting and Slitting:
The MS coils or sheets are then cut and slit into the required widths using high-precision machinery. This ensures:
- Uniform thickness
- Accurate dimensions
- Minimized material waste
3. Pipe Forming (Rolling & Welding):
The cut steel strips are passed through a series of rollers to form them into the desired shape—round, square, or rectangular. The edges are then welded together using techniques like:
- Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) – Ensures strong, seamless joints
- Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) – Used for heavy-duty industrial pipes
At Mittal Traders, Kolkata, we provide MS pipes that undergo precision welding for enhanced durability.
4. Heat Treatment & Annealing
The pipes are then heat-treated to remove internal stresses and improve strength. This step ensures:
- Better ductility and flexibility
- Stronger weld joints
- Reduced brittleness
5. Surface Treatment & Coating
MS pipes are prone to corrosion, so they go through protective coatings, such as:
- Galvanization (zinc coating) for rust prevention
- Epoxy/polymer coatings for added durability
- Oil coating to prevent oxidation during storage
At Mittal Traders, Kolkata, we supply corrosion-resistant MS pipes to suit various industry requirements.
6. Cutting & Sizing
The manufactured pipes are cut to standard or customized sizes using high-precision machines. This ensures:
- Accurate dimensions for various applications
- Smooth edges for safety and easy installation
7. Quality Inspection & Testing
Every pipe undergoes strict quality testing to meet industrial standards. Tests include:
- Hydrostatic pressure testing (to check for leaks)
- Ultrasonic & X-ray testing (to detect internal defects)
- Bend and impact testing (to ensure durability)
At Mittal Traders, Kolkata, we follow a rigorous quality control process to deliver the best MS pipes to our customers..
8. Packaging & Dispatch
Once approved, the pipes are bundled, packed, and dispatched to customers. Proper packaging prevents damage during transportation, ensuring that pipes arrive in perfect condition.
