What Are SSAW Pipes?

SSAW pipes are large diameter steel pipes with a spiral weld. The letters stand for spiral submerged arc welded. Some buyers call them HSAW pipes, for helical submerged arc welded, and the two names mean the same product.

The mill starts with a long hot rolled steel coil, not a flat plate. It uncoils the strip, flattens it, and trims and mills the edges so they weld cleanly. The strip then enters a forming machine at an angle, and the machine curls it into a spiral tube. Welders run submerged arc welding on the inside and the outside of the spiral seam, with flux covering the arc so the weld stays deep and clean. Finally, the mill cuts the pipe to length, tests the weld, and machines the ends.

This method has one big advantage. The pipe diameter depends on the forming angle and the strip width, so one coil width can produce several different diameters. That makes SSAW pipes flexible in size, quick to deliver, and lower in cost than plate-based pipe.

Types of SSAW Pipes

SSAW pipes are available in different types based on their standards, applications, and surface finish. Each type is designed for specific operating conditions and project requirements.

SSAW Pipes by Standard

  • API 5L SSAW Pipes: Used mainly for oil, gas, and water transmission pipelines. These pipes are available in grades such as Gr. B, X42, X52, X60, and X70.
  • ASTM A252 SSAW Pipes: Designed for piling applications, including foundations for bridges, buildings, ports, and other structures.
  • ASTM A139 SSAW Pipes: Commonly used for fluid transportation and other general-purpose pipeline applications.
  • AWWA C200 SSAW Pipes: Manufactured for water transmission systems used in municipal, industrial, and infrastructure projects.

SSAW Pipes by Finish and Coating

SSAW pipes can be supplied as bare or coated pipes, depending on the application and service environment. Bare pipes are suitable for applications where additional corrosion protection is not required. For buried, offshore, or corrosive environments, protective coatings can help extend pipe service life.

Common SSAW pipe coatings include 3LPE, 3LPP, FBE, liquid epoxy, and coal tar enamel. For water pipelines, cement mortar lining can also be applied to the internal surface to provide corrosion protection and maintain a smooth flow path.

Common SSAW Pipe Materials

Most SSAW pipes are made from carbon steel and low alloy steel hot-rolled coils. Common API 5L grades include Gr. B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, and X70, offering different strength levels for pipeline applications. ASTM A252 Grades 1, 2, and 3 are widely used for piling, while ASTM A139 Grades A to E are suitable for general and water service applications.

As an SSAW pipe supplier, we can provide different grades and specifications based on project requirements. The right material depends on factors such as operating pressure, soil or water conditions, application, and design code. When ordering, it is important to specify the required grade, standard, size, and coating to ensure the pipe matches the project requirements.

What Is the Difference Between SSAW Pipes and LSAW Pipes?

The main difference is the raw material and the seam. SSAW pipes come from coil and carry a long spiral seam. LSAW pipes come from plate and carry one short straight seam. Because the spiral spreads the weld load along the pipe, SSAW pipes work very well for water, gas gathering, and piling. Because LSAW pipes use thick plate, they suit the highest pressure pipelines.

Choose SSAW for big diameters, flexible sizes, and lower cost. Choose LSAW for thick walls and high-pressure transmission lines.

Point SSAW Pipes LSAW Pipes
Made From Hot rolled steel coil Steel plate
Seam Long spiral seam One straight seam
Forming Continuous spiral forming JCOE or UOE press forming
Diameter Flexibility Many sizes from one coil width One plate width per size
Wall Thickness Thin to medium Medium to very thick
Weld Length Longer per pipe Shorter per pipe
Pressure Low to medium Medium to high
Price Lower Higher
Lead Time Shorter Longer
Best For Water mains, gas gathering, piling, dredging Oil and gas transmission, offshore lines, heavy piling

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SSAW pipe sizes, grades, standards, testing, and supply.

What does SSAW pipe mean?

SSAW means Spiral Submerged Arc Welded pipe. It is produced from hot rolled steel coil that is formed into a spiral shape and welded internally and externally using submerged arc welding.

What sizes of SSAW pipes are available?

Our standard SSAW pipe range is 8 inches to 48 inches outside diameter, or 219.1 mm to 1219.2 mm OD, with wall thicknesses from 5 mm to 25 mm. Custom dimensions may be supplied on request.

Which standards are available for SSAW pipes?

Available standards include API 5L and ISO 3183 for line pipe, ASTM A252 for piling, ASTM A139 for general fluid service, AWWA C200 for water pipe, IS 3589, EN 10219, and related coating or lining standards.

What is the difference between PSL1 and PSL2 pipe?

PSL1 is the basic API 5L product specification level. PSL2 has additional requirements for chemical composition, mechanical properties, testing, traceability, and often Charpy impact testing, making it suitable for more demanding pipeline applications.

Can SSAW pipes be supplied with coating and lining?

Yes. SSAW pipes can be supplied bare, varnished, 3LPE coated, 3LPP coated, FBE coated, epoxy coated, or coal tar enamel coated. Cement mortar lining and other internal lining options are available for water-service applications.

What tests are performed on SSAW pipes?

Testing can include hydrostatic testing, ultrasonic weld testing, X-ray testing at pipe ends, tensile testing, guided bend testing, chemical analysis, dimensional checks, and Charpy impact tests for PSL2 orders where required.

How do I calculate SSAW pipe weight per metre?

Use this formula: Weight (kg/m) = (OD − Wall) × Wall × 0.02466. OD and wall thickness must both be entered in millimetres.

What information is needed for an SSAW pipe quotation?

For an accurate quotation, provide the required standard, grade, OD, wall thickness, pipe length, quantity, end finish, coating or lining requirement, certificate type, inspection
