Hot-rolled seamless carbon steel tubes are created using a process called hot rolling, which is different from the cold rolling process. Hot-rolled seamless carbon steel tubes are used in various applications. Due to their strength and resistance to high temperatures, they’re often found in boilers, high-pressure pipelines, hydraulic cylinders, and mechanical structures. They’re also commonly used in the petroleum and gas industries.
Hot-rolled seamless carbon steel tubes are generally cheaper and faster to produce than cold-rolled tubes because the process is simpler and requires fewer steps. Additionally, the hot rolling process allows for the production of larger diameter and thicker tubes compared to cold rolling. However, hot-rolled tubes usually have a somewhat rougher surface finish and slightly less precise dimensions than cold-rolled tubes.
